Customers can expect the finished piece to look and feel significantly updated, often extending the furniture's life by many years.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my furniture is worth reupholstering?
If the frame is solid wood and structurally sound, reupholstery almost always makes financial and practical sense. Pieces with sentimental value or high-quality original construction, like hardwood frames or coil spring systems, are especially good candidates.
Can I bring my own fabric to the shop?
Many upholstery shops will work with customer-supplied fabric, but you'll want to confirm this ahead of time. Make sure the fabric you bring is appropriate for the type of furniture, since some materials don't hold up well to heavy use or aren't suitable for certain upholstery techniques.
How long does a furniture reupholstery project take?
Most single pieces like a sofa or chair take between one and three weeks depending on the shop's current workload. More complex projects, or orders with multiple pieces, can take longer, so it's worth asking for a timeline estimate when you get your quote.
Will the reupholstered piece look like new?
Yes, in most cases the finished piece will look completely refreshed with new fabric and padding. If there were any structural issues with the frame or springs, those will also be addressed, so the piece should feel as good as it looks.
Do I need to remove the fabric myself before bringing in my furniture?
No, stripping the old fabric is part of the reupholstery process. Bring or send the piece as it is, and the shop will handle the teardown, assessment, and rebuilding from there.
How much does furniture reupholstery cost in Saint Paul?
Costs vary widely based on the size of the piece, the fabric chosen, and the amount of structural work needed. A basic dining chair might run a few hundred dollars, while a large sectional sofa could cost significantly more. Getting a quote with your specific piece and fabric choice is the best way to plan your budget.
