Frequently Asked Questions

Does Jacobo Upholstery work on antique or vintage furniture?
Vintage and antique pieces often require extra care during disassembly and reassembly to preserve original joinery and details. It's worth discussing the age and construction of your piece upfront so the shop can plan accordingly.
What's the difference between reupholstery and slipcovers?
Reupholstery involves permanently replacing the fabric and often the underlying padding, while slipcovers are removable covers placed over existing upholstery. Reupholstery produces a cleaner, more tailored result but requires more time and skill.
Can worn or saggy cushions be replaced without reupholstering the whole piece?
Yes, cushion replacement is often possible as a standalone service. New foam inserts or cushion cores can dramatically improve the comfort and appearance of a sofa or chair without a full reupholstery job.
How do I prepare my furniture for drop-off at an upholstery shop?
Remove any personal items and cushions if possible, and take note of any specific concerns you want the shop to address. Photos of the original fabric or a reference image of the look you want can be helpful to bring along.
Is reupholstery a good option for outdoor furniture used in Miami's climate?
Outdoor reupholstery is definitely possible, but it requires fabrics specifically rated for UV resistance and moisture exposure. Solution-dyed acrylics and marine-grade vinyl are popular choices for outdoor use in South Florida.
Can a headboard be reupholstered, and how long does it take?
Headboards are one of the more straightforward reupholstery jobs and can often be completed in just a few days. The process involves removing the old fabric, updating the padding if needed, and wrapping the piece in the new material.
