They've earned a perfect 5-star rating, which speaks to the care they bring to each project.

Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

The shop focuses on furniture reupholstery, which means stripping worn fabric down to the frame, repairing or replacing foam and padding, and fitting new material cleanly across cushions, arms, and backs. Fabric selection is part of the process, with customers typically choosing from a range of upholstery-grade textiles suited for durability and appearance. Frames are inspected during disassembly, so any structural issues get addressed before the new cover goes on. Whether it's a beloved sofa, a dining chair set, or a bedroom accent piece, the work is done by hand with attention to seams and corners.

Service Area

Custom Professional Upholstery is based in Mendota Heights and is well positioned to serve clients across the southern Twin Cities suburbs, including Eagan, Inver Grove Heights, and West Saint Paul. Saint Paul residents are also within easy reach given how close Mendota Heights sits to the city's southern edge.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does furniture reupholstery typically take in Mendota Heights?
Most standard pieces like sofas or chairs take one to three weeks once the project starts. Turnaround can vary depending on the shop's current schedule and how complex your piece is.
Can I bring my own fabric to the shop?
Yes, most upholstery shops will work with customer-supplied fabric. Just confirm yardage requirements ahead of time, since the shop will calculate how much material your specific piece needs.
Is it worth reupholstering an old sofa, or should I just buy new?
It depends on the frame quality. Older sofas with solid hardwood frames are often worth restoring because the bones are better than what you'd find in most new furniture at a similar price point. A quick inspection by an upholsterer can help you decide.
What types of fabric work best for high-traffic furniture in Minnesota homes?
Performance fabrics like solution-dyed acrylics or tightly woven polyester blends hold up well with daily use and are easier to clean. If you have pets or kids, these tend to outlast natural fibers on busy pieces.
Do upholstery shops in Mendota Heights also replace foam and padding?
Yes, cushion foam replacement is a standard part of most reupholstery jobs. You can often choose the density level, which affects how firm or soft the finished cushion feels.
How should I prepare my furniture before dropping it off?
Remove any personal items from drawers or cushion pockets and give the piece a basic cleaning. You don't need to strip anything yourself since that's part of what the shop handles.
