Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery is the core offering here, covering everything from sectional sofas and armchairs to dining benches and headboards. The process typically involves stripping the old fabric down to the frame, inspecting and repairing the underlying structure, replacing worn foam or batting, and then applying new fabric of your choice. Clients usually bring in or select from fabric samples, ranging from durable performance fabrics to natural linens and velvets. Custom work like tufting, nailhead trim, or piped seams can also be added depending on the project.

Service Area

Hermes Custom Upholstery is based in Salt Lake City and is well-positioned to serve clients across the greater Salt Lake Valley. Residents from nearby neighborhoods and communities like Murray, Millcreek, and Holladay won't have far to travel for a drop-off or pickup.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my furniture is worth reupholstering?
A good rule of thumb is to compare the reupholstery cost to what a comparable new piece would run. If the frame is solid hardwood and the piece has sentimental or antique value, reupholstery almost always makes more financial sense.
Can I supply my own fabric for the project?
Many shops accept customer-supplied fabric, but you'll want to confirm this before purchasing yardage. Make sure you know the exact measurements needed and that your fabric is rated for the intended use, such as heavy-duty upholstery weight for seating.
How long does a typical reupholstery job take?
Most furniture reupholstery projects in a busy Salt Lake City shop take one to three weeks from drop-off to pickup. Larger pieces or custom details like tufting can add time to the timeline.
Do upholstery shops also repair the furniture frame?
Yes, most shops will inspect and repair the frame as part of the job, especially if it's loose or damaged. It's worth asking upfront whether frame repairs are included in the quote or billed separately.
What fabric types work best for high-use sofas in Utah's dry climate?
Performance fabrics like solution-dyed acrylics and tightly woven synthetics tend to hold up well in Utah's low-humidity environment. Natural fibers can work beautifully too, but may benefit from a fabric protector treatment to resist drying and cracking.
Is it possible to change the style of a piece when reupholstering?
Absolutely. Reupholstery is a great opportunity to update the look of a piece, whether that means swapping a dated print for a solid neutral or adding button tufting to a plain cushion back. Discuss your vision with the shop during the consultation so they can advise on what's structurally feasible.
