The process involves removing old upholstery fabric, checking the frame and spring condition, replacing foam or cushion fill that's lost its support, and applying new fabric with clean, durable stitching. Fabric options range from budget-friendly polyester blends to higher-end options in velvet, linen, or faux leather. Customers with specific style preferences can discuss fabric choices before any work begins.

His Upholstery serves Harrisburg and the surrounding Dauphin County communities. Customers from Penbrook, Paxtang, and Swatara Township often use the shop. It's also accessible to residents coming in from the East Shore and parts of the greater Harrisburg metro area.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you reupholster a sleeper sofa?
Sleeper sofas are more complex than standard sofas because of the pull-out mechanism, but reupholstery is possible on most models. The shop will need to assess whether the mechanism is in good working order before quoting, since that affects the overall scope of the job.
What's the difference between reupholstering and slipcovers?
Reupholstering means removing the old fabric and permanently replacing it with new material that's sewn and tacked directly to the frame. Slipcovers are removable covers that fit over the existing upholstery. Reupholstering gives a cleaner, more tailored look and generally lasts longer.
Do you replace cushion foam, or just the fabric?
Both are available. If your cushions are flat, sagging, or lumpy, replacing the foam makes a significant difference in comfort and appearance. The shop can assess whether your existing foam is worth keeping or needs to be swapped out as part of the project.
How should I choose between fabric types?
Think about who uses the piece most and how heavily. High-traffic furniture in a family home benefits from tightly woven, stain-resistant fabric, while a formal sitting room piece can handle something lighter and more decorative. The shop can help you match material to practical needs.
Is reupholstering a sectional worth it cost-wise?
It depends on the frame quality and how much of the sectional needs work. A solid-frame sectional is often worth reupholstering, especially if you paid a premium for it originally. The shop can give you a quote to compare against what a similar quality replacement would cost.
Do you do pickup and delivery in Harrisburg?
It's best to call ahead at (717) 652-2957 to ask about logistics for your specific situation. Some shops offer pickup for larger pieces, while others work on a drop-off basis. Clarifying this before you try to move a heavy sectional is a good idea.
