About Dana’s Designs

Dana's Designs is located in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, a city that sits right alongside Akron and shares its creative energy and working-class appreciation for quality craftsmanship. The shop offers both furniture reupholstery and refinishing services, which is a combination that lets customers fully restore a piece rather than just recovering it. Cuyahoga Falls has a strong tradition of home improvement and DIY culture, and a shop that handles both fabric and wood surfaces fits naturally into that community. Clients here can bring in a piece with tired fabric and worn finish and have it returned looking genuinely new.

Services

Furniture Reupholstery
Refinishing Services

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery covers the full recovery of sofas, chairs, headboards, benches, and other upholstered pieces, starting with frame inspection and ending with professionally installed fabric. Refinishing services address the wood or metal structural components of furniture, including stripping old finishes, repairing surface damage, staining, and applying new protective coatings. When both services are applied to the same piece, the result is a full restoration rather than a partial update. Dana's Designs is well-positioned to take on antique chairs, vintage sofas, and heirloom furniture that need attention in both the fabric and structural finish departments.

Service Area

Dana's Designs serves Cuyahoga Falls and the greater Akron metro area, including Stow, Hudson, Tallmadge, and Barberton. The shop is conveniently located for clients throughout Summit County who want professional furniture restoration without a long drive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Dana's Designs refinish and reupholster the same piece at the same time?
That's one of the shop's strengths. Handling both services together means the fabric and finish are chosen as a matched set, and you don't have to coordinate between two different providers.
What does furniture refinishing actually involve?
Refinishing typically means stripping the existing stain or paint, sanding the surface smooth, repairing any cracks or damage, and applying a new stain and protective topcoat. The result is a refreshed wood surface that matches or improves on the original look.
What kinds of furniture are good candidates for full restoration?
Solid wood pieces with upholstered seats or backs are ideal, think dining chairs, wingback armchairs, settees, and benches. As long as the frame is structurally sound, both the fabric and finish can typically be restored successfully.
How do I know if my old furniture is worth restoring versus replacing?
Solid hardwood construction is the biggest factor. If the joints are tight and the frame doesn't flex, the piece is almost certainly worth restoring, especially if it has sentimental or antique value. The shop can walk you through the assessment during your initial visit.
Can you match a specific stain color to other furniture already in my home?
Bringing in a photo or a drawer from an existing piece helps enormously with color matching. The refinishing team can mix custom stain colors to get close to an existing finish in your home.
How long does a combined reupholstery and refinishing project take?
Full restoration projects generally take two to four weeks depending on the scope and current workload. The shop will give you a realistic timeline at the estimate stage so you can plan accordingly.
