Frequently Asked Questions

Is it worth reupholstering an older recliner?
If the recliner mechanism still works well and the frame is solid, reupholstering can be a great investment. Quality recliners often have mechanisms that outlast their fabric by decades, and a fresh cover can make them feel completely new again.
How much fabric does it take to reupholster a sofa?
A standard three-cushion sofa typically requires between 12 and 18 yards of fabric depending on the size, style, and whether the fabric has a pattern that needs to be matched. The shop will calculate this for you when you get your estimate.
Can you replace just the cushion foam without doing the whole sofa?
Yes, cushion foam replacement is a standalone service that can restore firmness and support without a full reupholstery job. If the outer fabric is still in good shape, this is often the most cost-effective way to refresh tired seating.
What should I look for to know if my furniture frame is in good shape?
Press on the corners and joints to check for wobbling or creaking, which might indicate loose connections. A solid frame that doesn't flex or shift when you apply pressure is a good sign that the piece is worth investing in.
Can you reupholster outdoor furniture?
Some outdoor pieces can be reupholstered using weather-resistant fabrics designed for UV and moisture exposure. Call ahead with details about the piece and the shop can advise whether it's a good candidate.
Do small upholstery shops typically work on antique furniture?
Many do, and local craftsmen in smaller markets often have experience with older furniture styles and construction techniques. It's worth asking about their experience with antiques before committing to a project with a particularly valuable or fragile piece.
