About Hewitt Specialties Uphlstr

Hewitt Specialties Upholstery operates in Tulsa, Oklahoma, serving customers who need furniture reupholstery done with attention to detail and craftsmanship. Tulsa's diverse housing stock, from older homes in the Kendall Whittier area to newer construction in east Tulsa, means residents often have pieces with real character that deserve more than a trip to a discount furniture store. A shop with specialty in its name suggests a focused approach to the craft rather than a one-size-fits-all operation. That focus tends to matter when you're dealing with a piece that has sentimental or monetary value.

Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at a specialty shop covers the full range of seating and upholstered pieces, from traditional wingback chairs and loveseats to modern sectionals and bedroom benches. The process involves removing existing fabric, evaluating and replacing worn foam or batting, repairing or tightening loose frames where needed, and applying new fabric with professional finishing. Specialty shops often maintain relationships with fabric distributors, giving customers access to a broader selection than what's available at big box stores. Decorative details like tufting, nailhead trim, and contrast piping are also part of what a skilled upholsterer can offer.

Service Area

Hewitt Specialties is located in Tulsa and works with customers throughout the city and surrounding communities. Clients from Broken Arrow, Jenks, and other Tulsa metro areas regularly bring pieces in for reupholstery work given Tulsa's central position in the region.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'specialty' upholstery mean compared to standard reupholstery?
Specialty upholstery often refers to more detailed or technically demanding work, such as tufting, custom cushion shapes, antique restoration, or unusual fabric applications. It can also mean the shop handles a wider range of materials, including leather, vinyl, and performance fabrics.
Can I get tufting added to a piece that didn't originally have it?
Yes, tufting can typically be added during the reupholstery process, though it does add labor time and cost. The upholsterer will assess whether the foam and frame can support the added detail before committing to the design.
How much fabric will I need for a standard sofa?
A standard three-cushion sofa usually requires between 12 and 18 yards of fabric depending on its size and whether the fabric has a repeat pattern that needs to be matched. Your upholsterer will give you a more precise yardage estimate once they assess the piece.
Do upholstery shops in Tulsa repair furniture frames as well?
Many do, or they work alongside furniture repair specialists who handle structural issues before the upholstery work begins. Loose joints, broken legs, or damaged frames should be addressed before new fabric goes on so the finished piece is stable.
Can upholstery shops match existing fabric on a piece I only want partially redone?
Matching existing fabric can be difficult since materials discontinue frequently. A skilled upholsterer may be able to find a close match or suggest a complementary contrast fabric that makes the partial update look intentional rather than mismatched.
Is it possible to change the cushion firmness when reupholstering?
Absolutely. Replacing the foam is a standard part of reupholstery, and you can choose a different density to make the piece firmer or softer than it was originally. This is one of the most practical upgrades customers request alongside new fabric.
