Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery covers the full process of removing old fabric, repairing or replacing foam and padding, and applying new material to chairs, sofas, loveseats, and accent pieces. Cushion replacement is a common service for pieces where the frame is still solid but the padding has flattened or broken down over time. Fabric selection is part of the process, with customers choosing from available options or sourcing their own. Structural repairs to frames, including re-gluing joints or replacing broken corner blocks, are often done alongside reupholstery work.

Service Area

Harmony's Ben Upholsteries is based in Springfield, IL and primarily serves customers throughout Sangamon County. People from neighboring towns including Riverton, Williamsville, and Auburn regularly bring in pieces for reupholstery work. The shop is a practical option for anyone in central Illinois who wants local, hands-on service rather than shipping furniture to a distant facility.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does furniture reupholstery typically take in Springfield?
Most standard pieces like chairs or sofas take one to three weeks from drop-off to completion. Complex projects, large sectionals, or jobs requiring special-order fabric can take longer, so ask for a timeline estimate upfront.
Can Harmony's Ben Upholsteries work on antique furniture?
Many upholstery shops in Springfield handle antique pieces, though it's worth mentioning the piece's age and any known history when you call. Antique restoration often involves more careful disassembly and period-appropriate materials to preserve the piece's value.
What's the difference between reupholstery and slip covers?
Reupholstery permanently replaces the fabric and often the padding, giving the piece a like-new look and feel. Slipcovers are removable fabric covers that protect or update the appearance without altering the underlying upholstery.
Do I need to remove the furniture legs before dropping off a piece?
You don't need to do anything before dropping off your furniture. The shop will handle disassembly as part of the process and reattach all hardware when the job is complete.
Can upholstery shops match existing fabric on a partially damaged piece?
Matching existing fabric is possible but depends on whether the material is still available. Shops can often find close matches, but for older or discontinued fabrics, you may need to re-cover the entire piece for a consistent look.
Is it worth reupholstering a dining chair set?
Dining chairs are one of the most cost-effective upholstery projects because they use relatively little fabric and the labor per chair is lower than on larger pieces. A full set of six chairs can often be done for significantly less than buying comparable new ones.
