Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery covers far more than just wrapping a couch in new fabric. The process typically includes stripping down the existing material, inspecting and repairing the frame, replacing worn foam or padding, and then applying the new fabric with precision stitching. Customers can bring in sofas, loveseats, armchairs, ottomans, dining chairs, and headboards. A skilled reupholsterer will also help you choose the right fabric weight and texture for your specific piece, especially important in Colorado's dry climate where some materials can crack or fade faster than others.

Service Area

G W's Custom Upholstery primarily serves Colorado Springs and the surrounding El Paso County area. Customers from nearby communities like Fountain, Manitou Springs, and Peyton regularly bring pieces in for work. If you're within a reasonable drive of Colorado Springs, it's worth a call.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my furniture is worth reupholstering?
A good rule of thumb is to compare the reupholstery cost against what you'd spend on a comparable new piece of similar quality. If the frame is solid wood and the structure is sound, reupholstering almost always makes financial and sentimental sense.
Can I bring my own fabric to the shop?
Many upholstery shops will work with customer-supplied fabric, but you'll want to confirm this before you buy. Make sure you have enough yardage, as most shops will specify a minimum based on your piece's size.
How long does furniture reupholstery take in Colorado Springs?
Most standard pieces like armchairs or dining chairs take one to two weeks. Larger items like sectionals or antiques requiring structural repairs can take three weeks or more depending on the shop's current workload.
Does Colorado's dry climate affect which fabrics I should choose?
Yes, it can. Very dry conditions can cause certain leathers and synthetic materials to dry out and crack faster than in more humid climates. A local upholsterer can recommend fabrics that hold up well in Colorado Springs specifically.
Do upholstery shops offer pickup and delivery in Colorado Springs?
Some do and some don't, so it's worth asking when you call. For large or heavy pieces like sectionals, many shops will arrange pickup and delivery for an additional fee.
What information should I have ready when I call for a quote?
Have the type of furniture ready, a general description of its condition, and ideally a photo you can text or email. Knowing whether you want a specific fabric type or color will also help the shop give you a more accurate estimate upfront.
