About Gene Sanes

Gene Sanes is a Pittsburgh-based provider offering a broader range of home services than a typical upholstery-only shop, covering furniture reupholstery, retail furniture, and window treatments including shades and blinds. That range makes it a practical stop for homeowners tackling a full room refresh rather than just a single piece. With 11 reviews and a 3.5 rating, the shop serves a range of customers across the city. Pittsburgh's mix of older homes and newer condos in areas like the Strip District and Mount Washington creates demand for exactly this kind of multi-service provider.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy new furniture and get reupholstery work done at Gene Sanes?
Yes, Gene Sanes operates as both a furniture retailer and an upholstery shop. That means you can shop for new pieces or bring in existing furniture for reupholstery during the same visit.
What window treatment options are available at upholstery shops in Pittsburgh?
Shops that carry shades and blinds typically offer roller shades, Roman shades, cellular shades, and horizontal blinds in a range of fabrics and materials. Custom sizing is usually available for windows that don't fit standard dimensions.
How do I coordinate upholstery fabric with window treatments in the same room?
A good starting point is choosing one dominant color and pulling it through both the fabric and the window treatment. Shopping for both in the same place makes it easier to compare swatches side by side before committing.
How much does furniture reupholstery typically cost in Pittsburgh?
Pricing varies widely based on the size of the piece, the fabric chosen, and the condition of the existing materials. A basic armchair might start around a few hundred dollars, while a large sectional can run significantly more.
Are custom window shades more expensive than standard sizes?
Custom shades do carry a premium over standard sizes, but the difference is often worth it in older Pittsburgh homes where window dimensions don't match modern standard sizing. The cleaner fit also looks better and functions more effectively.
Can upholstery shops handle commercial furniture projects in Pittsburgh?
Many shops work with commercial clients including restaurants, hotels, and office buildings. Commercial projects often involve multiple identical pieces and require durable, high-traffic fabrics rated for commercial use.
