Services & Process

Cajun Color Inc handles furniture reupholstery by stripping worn fabric from frames, checking the springs and padding, then recovering pieces in your chosen material. On the auto side, they work on car seats, door panels, and headliners, replacing cracked or faded materials with fresh vinyl, cloth, or leather. Louisiana's intense sun and humidity accelerate wear on both vehicle interiors and home furnishings, making these services especially relevant here. Whether it's a dining chair or a truck bench seat, they can match fabrics and finishes to your preference.

Service Area

Cajun Color Inc is based in Metairie and serves customers throughout Jefferson Parish and the greater New Orleans metro area. Nearby communities like Kenner, Harahan, and River Ridge are all within easy reach. Customers from the Lakeview and Mid-City neighborhoods of New Orleans also make the short trip over.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you reupholster both my car seats and my home furniture at the same shop?
Yes, Cajun Color Inc handles both auto and furniture upholstery, so you don't need to visit two different shops. This is convenient if you want matching materials or just want to deal with one provider for multiple projects.
How does Louisiana's climate affect upholstery?
The humidity and intense UV exposure in the New Orleans area can cause fabric to mildew and leather to dry out and crack faster than in drier climates. Choosing the right material with some moisture resistance can make your upholstery last significantly longer.
How long does a typical furniture reupholstery job take?
A standard sofa or chair usually takes one to three weeks depending on the shop's current workload and the complexity of the piece. More detailed work, like tufting or antique restoration, can take longer.
Do I need to bring my car in, or can you come to me for auto upholstery?
Most auto upholstery shops require you to bring the vehicle in so they can properly remove and reinstall components. Mobile service is rare for upholstery since the work requires specialized tools and a stable workspace.
Can you match the original fabric color if I'm only replacing one seat?
Exact original fabric matches can be difficult if the material is discontinued, but a skilled shop can often find a very close alternative or dye-match new fabric. It's worth bringing in a sample from the original piece to compare.
What's the cost range for reupholstering a sofa in Metairie?
Sofa reupholstery in the New Orleans area generally runs anywhere from $600 to over $2,000 depending on the size, fabric choice, and how much structural repair is needed. Getting a quote in person after an inspection gives you the most accurate number.
