Services & Process

The shop focuses on furniture reupholstery, which means stripping old fabric down to the frame, inspecting and repairing the internal structure, and applying new material to factory-level standards. Customers typically bring in sofas, armchairs, dining chairs, and ottomans. Fabric selection is part of the process, with options ranging from durable performance fabrics for family rooms to more refined textiles for formal spaces. Cushion cores can also be replaced during the process for pieces that have lost their original support and comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it typically cost to reupholster a sofa in Knightdale?
Sofa reupholstery in the Raleigh area generally runs between $600 and $1,500 depending on the size, fabric choice, and condition of the frame. A detailed quote from the shop after inspecting your piece will give you the most accurate number.
Is it worth reupholstering an old couch instead of buying a new one?
It depends on the frame quality. If your sofa has a solid hardwood frame and good bones, reupholstering almost always makes financial and practical sense. Mass-market furniture today often uses softer woods or engineered materials that won't last as long.
Can I bring my own fabric to Bobby Poole Upholstery?
Many upholstery shops will work with customer-supplied fabric, though you'll want to confirm this when you call. Make sure you have enough yardage for your piece since the shop can tell you the exact amount needed during the consultation.
How long does furniture reupholstery take?
A typical chair takes three to seven days, while a full sofa might take one to three weeks. Turnaround depends on how busy the shop is and whether any frame repairs are needed before the new fabric goes on.
Do upholstery shops in Knightdale offer pickup and delivery?
Some local shops offer pickup and delivery for an added fee, especially for large or heavy pieces. It's best to ask when you call to confirm whether that service is available and what the cost would be.
What types of fabric work best for reupholstering furniture with kids or pets?
Performance fabrics like Sunbrella, crypton, and tightly woven synthetic blends hold up well in high-traffic homes. They resist staining and are much easier to clean than traditional wovens or delicate natural fibers.
