Services & Process

Because fabric selection happens in-house, customers can make informed choices with the upholsterer's input right there. This combination tends to result in better material choices and fewer surprises on the final product.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy upholstery fabric at Burcraft without having them do the work?
Yes, fabric stores that also do upholstery work typically sell fabric to the public separately. You can purchase yardage for DIY projects, other contractors, or crafts without committing to a full reupholstery job.
How do I know how much fabric to buy for a reupholstery project?
The amount of fabric needed depends on the piece's size, the fabric's pattern repeat, and how the upholsterer cuts and fits the material. A good rule of thumb is to ask your upholsterer for a yardage estimate before purchasing, since buying too little can cause real problems mid-project.
What fabric types work best for heavily used furniture?
For furniture that gets daily use, tightly woven fabrics like canvas, microfiber, and commercial-grade polyester blends hold up well. Leather and performance fabrics are also excellent choices for high-traffic pieces since they resist staining and wear much better than loosely woven options.
Do fabric stores in Fort Wayne carry designer or name-brand upholstery fabrics?
Many local fabric shops carry fabrics from established textile manufacturers, though selection varies by shop. Visiting in person gives you the best sense of what's currently in stock, since inventory changes regularly.
How do I match new upholstery fabric to existing furniture in my home?
Bringing photos or fabric swatches from your existing room is the best approach. Even better, bring a throw pillow or cushion cover so you can hold the new fabric samples directly against it in the shop's lighting.
Can Burcraft Fabrics help with both residential and commercial upholstery projects?
Shops that carry commercial-grade fabrics are well positioned to handle both home and business projects. Commercial properties like restaurants, offices, and hotels often need durable, high-abrasion fabrics that residential lines don't always offer.
