Services & Process

Jeff's Upholstery likely handles dining chairs, sofas, recliners, headboards, and other household furniture that needs new fabric, foam, or structural attention. The fabric store side of the business gives customers access to upholstery-grade materials, which are heavier and more durable than standard decorator fabrics. Customers can expect help selecting the right fabric weight and weave for their specific piece and how it gets used daily. For pieces with damaged frames or worn-out cushion cores, the shop can address those issues as part of the reupholstery process rather than just covering over existing problems.

Service Area

Jeff's Upholstery serves the Lithonia area and surrounding communities in eastern DeKalb County, including Stonecrest, Conyers, and the greater Stone Mountain region. Customers from nearby Rockdale County also make the trip for local upholstery expertise. Call (770) 482-1651 to discuss your project and ask about any pickup arrangements they offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much fabric do I need to reupholster a chair?
A standard armchair typically requires four to six yards of fabric, while a larger wingback or accent chair might need seven or eight. Your upholsterer will measure the piece precisely and tell you the exact yardage before you commit to purchasing material.
Can Jeff's Upholstery fix a broken recliner mechanism along with reupholstering it?
Some upholstery shops handle basic mechanical repairs on recliners alongside the fabric work, but it depends on the specific issue. It's worth describing the problem upfront so the shop can confirm whether that's within their scope or needs a separate furniture repair specialist.
Is it cheaper to reupholster furniture locally or buy new?
For solid-frame furniture with quality construction, local reupholstery is often less expensive than buying comparable new pieces and produces a better result. Cheap new furniture tends to have lower-grade frames and foam, so a restored piece frequently outlasts a budget replacement.
What should I look for when choosing upholstery fabric?
Focus on the double-rub count, which measures how many times a fabric can be rubbed before showing wear. For heavy-use pieces, look for fabrics rated at 30,000 double rubs or higher, and consider whether the fabric is treated for stain resistance.
Can you reupholster just the cushions without redoing the entire sofa?
Yes, many shops will replace or recover cushions only, which is a good option when the cushion fabric is worn but the rest of the sofa is in decent shape. Keep in mind that new cushion fabric may not match aged fabric on the frame, so it's worth discussing the visual result beforehand.
How do I transport a large sofa to an upholstery shop in Lithonia?
For large pieces, you'll need a truck, cargo van, or SUV with fold-down seats, or you can ask the shop whether they offer pickup service for an additional fee. Some shops also allow customers to bring in one cushion or a fabric sample first for a preliminary quote before hauling the whole piece.
