Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at this level of care covers the full range of upholstered pieces: sofas, loveseats, armchairs, dining chairs, ottomans, and specialty pieces like chaise lounges or curved sectionals. The process involves removing old material, evaluating and replacing foam or padding as needed, and applying new fabric with clean, tight seam work. Fine upholstery shops pay particular attention to pattern matching, welt cord details, and button tufting, which are the finishing touches that separate a quality job from a basic one.

Service Area

Hernandez Fine Upholstery serves Miami and the surrounding Miami-Dade County communities. Clients from areas like Little Havana, West Miami, Coral Way, and Coconut Grove are a short drive away. The shop's Miami location makes it central to a large population of homeowners, renters, and design professionals who need quality local upholstery work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'fine upholstery' mean compared to standard reupholstery?
Fine upholstery typically refers to attention to detail in the finishing work, including precise pattern matching, quality welt cord or trim, clean seam lines, and proper tufting. It's more labor-intensive than basic reupholstery and produces a result that's closer to what you'd expect from high-end manufactured furniture.
Can you reupholster antique or vintage furniture without damaging it?
Experienced upholsterers know how to work with older frames and original construction techniques. They'll preserve what's structurally sound, replace only what needs replacing, and use materials and methods that respect the piece's original character.
How do I pick the right fabric for a sofa in Miami's climate?
For indoor use in an air-conditioned Miami home, almost any quality upholstery fabric will work well. If the sofa gets direct sun exposure through windows, look for solution-dyed or fade-resistant fabrics. Performance fabrics are worth considering in homes with pets, children, or high-traffic areas.
What's button tufting and is it more expensive than regular upholstery?
Button tufting involves pulling fabric down at evenly spaced points and securing it with buttons, creating that classic diamond pattern seen on Chesterfield sofas and tufted headboards. It does add to the labor cost because it's time-consuming to do accurately, but it's a standard service at most fine upholstery shops.
Can you match the original fabric on a furniture set if one piece is damaged?
Matching original fabric exactly is often not possible if the material is discontinued, but a skilled shop can find very close alternatives. If you want all pieces to match perfectly, it may be worth reupholstering the entire set in new fabric at the same time.
How much does it cost to reupholster a sofa in Miami?
Prices for sofa reupholstery in Miami typically range from around $800 to $2,500 or more, depending on the sofa's size, construction complexity, and the fabric you choose. Getting an in-person quote from the shop gives you the most accurate number for your specific piece.
