Frequently Asked Questions

How long does furniture reupholstery take at a Brooklyn shop?
Most standard pieces take one to three weeks depending on the shop's current workload and the complexity of the job. Multi-piece projects or jobs requiring special-order fabric can take longer, so it's smart to plan ahead rather than waiting until furniture is falling apart.
Can you repair the frame at the same time as reupholstering?
Yes, most upholstery shops will address loose joints, broken legs, or wobbly frames as part of the overall job. Frame repairs are usually priced separately, so ask for a breakdown of labor costs when you get your quote.
What fabric types are best for homes with pets?
Tightly woven fabrics like microfiber, outdoor-grade textiles, and leather tend to resist pet hair and scratches better than loosely woven materials. Your upholsterer can show you options that balance durability with the look you want for your space.
Is it cheaper to reupholster or buy a new sofa in Brooklyn?
For a sofa with a solid frame, reupholstery often costs less than buying a comparable quality new piece, especially in NYC where good furniture isn't cheap. If the frame is damaged or the sofa is low quality to begin with, replacement makes more sense.
Do Brooklyn upholstery shops offer pickup and delivery?
Many shops in Brooklyn offer pickup and delivery for an additional fee, which is especially helpful for large sectionals or heavy armchairs that are difficult to transport in a city environment. Ask H & A directly at (718) 855-9664 to confirm their current options.
How do I prepare my furniture before bringing it to an upholstery shop?
Remove any cushions, pillows, and personal items from the furniture before drop-off. You don't need to strip the old fabric yourself since that's part of what the shop does. Taking a few photos beforehand is also a good idea if you want to reference the original style.
