Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery involves far more than just swapping out fabric. The process typically includes removing old material, inspecting and repairing the underlying frame if needed, replacing worn foam or cushioning, and then cutting and applying new fabric or leather. Fabric selection is a key part of the service, and customers usually choose from a range of materials including cotton blends, microfiber, velvet, and genuine or faux leather. The result is a piece that looks and feels new while keeping the original frame and structure you already own.

Service Area

Furniture Tech Services covers San Jose and the broader Santa Clara County area, including Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, Milpitas, and Campbell. Customers from Morgan Hill and Gilroy to the south also come in for reupholstery work. The shop's central San Jose location puts it within reasonable driving distance for most South Bay residents.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Furniture Tech Services reupholster office chairs and commercial furniture?
Many upholstery shops handle both residential and commercial work, and office chairs are a common request. It's worth calling ahead to confirm they work with the specific type of piece you have, especially if it has complex mechanisms or unusual dimensions.
How do I choose the right fabric for my sofa reupholstery project?
Think about how the piece gets used. High-traffic sofas in homes with kids or pets do better with tightly woven, stain-resistant fabrics like microfiber or performance blends. For a formal piece used occasionally, you have more flexibility to choose materials like velvet or linen.
Can I bring in my own fabric for the job?
Some shops accept customer-supplied fabric, but you'll want to confirm this upfront. There are a few trade-offs: you may not get the same warranty on the work, and the shop won't be responsible if the fabric doesn't hold up as expected.
What's the difference between reupholstery and slipcovers?
Reupholstery involves completely replacing the existing fabric by attaching new material directly to the frame, which gives a cleaner, more permanent result. Slipcovers are removable covers that fit over the existing upholstery, which costs less but doesn't address worn or damaged padding underneath.
How do I know if my furniture is worth reupholstering?
Check the frame. If it's solid hardwood and still structurally sound, reupholstery usually makes financial sense, especially for larger pieces. Particleboard or staple-and-glue construction may not justify the investment since the frame won't last as long as the new fabric.
Does reupholstering a sofa take longer than reupholstering a chair?
Yes, typically. A sofa involves significantly more fabric, more cushions, and more labor time than a single chair. While a dining chair might be done in a few days, a full sofa generally takes one to three weeks depending on the shop's workload and the complexity of the design.
