Services & Process

Handy Woman handles furniture reupholstery alongside carpentry and general handyman work, which means a sagging sofa and a broken leg can both get fixed in the same visit. Reupholstery services include recovering chairs, sofas, and benches with new fabric and foam. The carpentry side covers frame repairs, refinishing, and custom woodwork that might be needed before upholstery can begin. This combination is particularly useful for older furniture with structural issues that need addressing before new fabric goes on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fix broken furniture frames and reupholster in the same visit?
That's one of the advantages of working with a provider who does both carpentry and upholstery. Frame repairs get done first, and then the reupholstery follows once the structure is solid again.
Do you work on small accent pieces, or only large furniture?
Small pieces like footstools, benches, and accent chairs are common projects. They're often quicker to complete than large sofas, and bundling a few small pieces together in one appointment can be very efficient.
Can you handle outdoor furniture reupholstery?
Outdoor pieces need weather-resistant fabric that holds up to UV exposure and moisture, and that's a specific material category worth discussing when you call. The carpentry side can also address any wood rot or structural damage before the fabric work begins.
What other handyman work can be bundled with a reupholstery project?
Common add-ons include cabinet repairs, door adjustments, minor carpentry fixes, and furniture assembly. If you have a list of smaller jobs that haven't been worth a separate call, combining them with a reupholstery visit makes good use of the time.
Is Handy Woman a woman-owned business?
The name suggests a woman-led or women-run operation, which is worth confirming directly when you call. Woman-owned home service businesses are increasingly common in Raleigh and bring the same skills and quality as any other provider.
How do I get a quote for a combined carpentry and reupholstery project?
Calling with a description of the work is a good starting point, but an in-person look usually gives the most accurate estimate. Photos sent ahead of the visit help too, especially for larger or more complex pieces.
