Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery covers everything from simple dining chair cushion replacement to full sofa rebuilds. A custom-oriented shop typically offers a wider fabric selection than a standard repair shop, including specialty textiles, performance fabrics, and decorator-grade materials. The process involves removing old fabric, inspecting and replacing foam or padding as needed, and applying the new material with clean seams and proper tension. Custom cover work may also include slipcovers, decorative throw pillow construction, or custom seat cushions for built-ins and window seats.

Service Area

Fair Folk Custom Covers is located in Liberty, TN, and serves customers throughout DeKalb County and neighboring areas. Residents from Smithville, Alexandria, and surrounding communities looking for custom upholstery work won't need to make the longer drive to Nashville.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of fabric work best for a couch with kids and pets?
Performance fabrics like crypton, outdoor-rated textiles, and tightly woven synthetic blends hold up best in high-traffic homes. They resist stains, moisture, and wear much better than natural linens or loosely woven decorative fabrics.
Can you make custom slipcovers instead of fully reupholstering?
Yes, and slipcovers are a great option when you want to change the look of a piece without a full teardown, or when you want a removable cover that's easy to wash. They work best on pieces with relatively simple shapes.
How much fabric will I need if I'm supplying my own material?
It varies widely depending on the piece and whether the fabric has a pattern repeat that needs matching. A shop will give you a yardage estimate once they assess the piece, so don't buy fabric in advance without checking with them first.
Can reupholstery fix cushions that have gone flat?
Absolutely. Replacing old, compressed foam with new high-density foam is one of the most common and most satisfying parts of a reupholstery job. You can also add down wrapping around foam for a softer, more luxurious feel.
Is it possible to reupholster just one cushion without redoing the whole piece?
It's possible, but matching new fabric to faded or discontinued old fabric is often difficult. If you're replacing just one section, the shop can advise on whether a partial match will look intentional or just mismatched.
Do custom upholstery shops work with interior designers?
Many do, and interior designers often rely on local upholstery shops for custom projects. If you're working with a designer, it's worth connecting them directly with the shop so fabric selections and specs are communicated accurately.
