Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right fabric for reupholstering a sofa?
Start with how the sofa is used. A piece in a busy family room with kids and pets needs a tightly woven, stain-resistant fabric, while a formal sitting room piece can handle more delicate textiles. Your upholsterer can walk you through options that balance aesthetics with practical durability.
Can you reupholster just the cushions without doing the whole sofa?
Yes, partial reupholstery is an option in many cases, especially if the body of the sofa is still in good shape. Recovering cushions only can significantly refresh a piece at a lower cost than a full job.
What happens to the old foam and padding during reupholstery?
Old foam is typically replaced if it's compressed or degraded, since new fabric over old foam won't restore comfort. High-density replacement foam significantly improves the feel of a finished piece and is worth the added cost.
Is it possible to change the style of a piece during reupholstery?
To some extent, yes. You can change fabric color, pattern, and texture to dramatically alter the look of a piece. Structural changes like arm shape or cushion style are more involved and may or may not be feasible depending on the frame.
How do I prepare my furniture before bringing it in for reupholstery?
You don't need to do much other than clean out any items stored in the sofa or cushions and remove personal belongings. The shop will handle disassembly and prep as part of the job.
What's the average lifespan of professionally reupholstered furniture?
With quality fabric and proper care, reupholstered furniture can last another 10 to 15 years or more. Choosing a durable fabric grade and keeping up with basic cleaning and conditioning makes a real difference in longevity.
