The shop handles jobs that most people put off too long, like a torn car seat or a couch that's been in the family for decades. Reach them directly at (360) 584-5524 to discuss your project.

Services

Auto Upholstery
Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Auto upholstery work covers seat repair, full seat replacements, door panel restoration, and convertible top work. On the furniture side, the team can strip old fabric down to the frame, rebuild cushion foam where needed, and apply new fabric or vinyl to match your existing decor or give a piece a completely fresh look. These two service areas overlap more than people expect since the techniques for cutting, stretching, and stitching material apply whether you're working on a pickup truck bench seat or a wingback chair. Both services save customers real money compared to buying new.

Service Area

Color Glo Of Olympia primarily serves Olympia and the broader Thurston County region, including Lacey, Tumwater, and Yelm. Customers from as far as Centralia and Shelton also make the trip for quality upholstery work they can't find closer to home.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a typical car seat reupholstery job take in Olympia?
Most standard car seat jobs take between two and five business days depending on the scope of the work and current shop volume. More complex jobs, like full interior replacements or custom work, can take longer. It's best to call ahead and ask about current turnaround times before dropping off your vehicle.
Can you match the original fabric on my car's interior?
In many cases, yes. Upholstery suppliers carry a wide range of OEM-style fabrics and vinyl patterns for popular vehicle makes and models. For older or rare vehicles, the shop may need to source specialty material, which can add a few days to the timeline.
Is it worth reupholstering an older sofa instead of buying new?
It often makes strong financial sense, especially for well-built older pieces with solid hardwood frames. A good sofa frame can last 50 years or more, and reupholstering typically costs less than replacing with furniture of comparable quality. You also get to keep a piece that fits your space perfectly.
What types of fabric can I choose from for furniture reupholstery?
Options generally include woven fabrics like linen and cotton blends, synthetic microfibers, performance fabrics that resist stains and moisture, leather, and vinyl. The right choice depends on how heavily the piece gets used, whether you have pets or kids, and your preferred aesthetic.
Do I need to remove my car seats before bringing them in?
Not necessarily. Many shops prefer to handle seat removal themselves to avoid complications with seat rail hardware or airbag wiring. Call ahead to ask whether they want the vehicle dropped off whole or prefer seats pulled before arrival.
Can foam cushions be replaced at the same time as the fabric?
Yes, and it's often a smart move. If your cushions have flattened out over time, new foam makes an enormous difference in comfort and appearance. Replacing the foam while the fabric is already off the piece adds relatively little to the overall cost.
