About Greg's Upholstery

Greg's Upholstery is a furniture reupholstery shop based in Apollo, Pennsylvania, a small Armstrong County town along the Kiskiminetas River about 35 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. Small-town shops like this one often carry a more personal approach than larger city operations, where you're talking directly with the person doing the work. Apollo and the surrounding river valley communities have a strong tradition of holding onto well-made furniture, which makes a skilled local upholsterer genuinely useful. If you've got a favorite chair or a family heirloom that needs new life, this is the kind of shop worth calling.

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Greg's Upholstery specializes in furniture reupholstery, covering everything from dining chairs and accent pieces to full sofas and sectionals. The process typically involves removing old fabric, inspecting and replacing padding or foam as needed, and applying the new material you select. For dining chairs, this can be a relatively quick turnaround. Larger upholstered pieces take more time but the result is a piece that looks and feels new while keeping the frame you already own.

Service Area

Greg's Upholstery serves Apollo and the surrounding Armstrong County area, including Kittanning, Leechburg, and communities along the Kiskiminetas and Allegheny River valleys. Customers from western Pennsylvania's smaller towns who want quality reupholstery work without the drive to Pittsburgh find this a practical local option.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to reupholster a dining chair in Apollo, PA?
Dining chair reupholstery is typically one of the more affordable upholstery jobs, often ranging from $50 to $150 per chair depending on the fabric and how complex the chair is. Drop seats are on the lower end, while chairs with backs and arms cost more.
Can I bring my own fabric to an upholstery shop?
Many upholsterers will work with customer-supplied fabric, but it's worth confirming beforehand. If the fabric you bring isn't suitable for upholstery use, a good shop will tell you upfront rather than let you waste money on a material that won't hold up.
How do I know if my sofa frame is worth reupholstering?
Flip the sofa over and check the frame construction. Solid wood frames with corner blocks and sturdy joinery are worth the investment. If the frame feels flimsy, squeaks badly, or is made from composite materials, the cost of reupholstery may exceed the piece's value.
Does Greg's Upholstery work on antique furniture?
Upholstery shops in the Apollo area regularly handle antique and vintage pieces, as many local homes have older furniture passed down through families. It's always a good idea to mention if a piece is antique so the shop can take the appropriate care with it.
What's the difference between reupholstering and slipcovers?
Reupholstering replaces the actual attached fabric and padding of a piece, giving a clean and permanent result. Slipcovers are removable fabric covers that fit over existing upholstery, which is cheaper and easier to swap out but doesn't address worn padding or structural issues.
How far in advance should I schedule an upholstery job?
Small local shops can get booked out, especially in spring and fall when people are refreshing their homes. Calling two to four weeks ahead is usually smart, though simpler jobs like dining chairs may be turned around faster.
