Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

As a furniture reupholstery specialist, Juan's handles the full process of stripping old fabric or leather from furniture and replacing it with new material. The tintes side of the business suggests they also offer fabric and leather dyeing, which is useful when a piece just needs a color refresh rather than a full reupholstery job. Customers typically choose from a range of fabric swatches and leather grades before work begins. This kind of shop is ideal for sofas, armchairs, headboards, ottomans, and dining chair seats that have worn fabric but solid bones.

Service Area

Juan's Tapeceria and Tintes serves the Miami, FL area and surrounding communities throughout Miami-Dade County. Customers from Little Havana, Wynwood, and other Miami neighborhoods bring pieces in regularly. The shop's bilingual capability makes it accessible to a wide range of Miami's diverse population.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'tintes' mean and what dyeing services do you offer?
Tintes is Spanish for dyes or tinting, and it refers to color restoration or changing services for fabric and leather. This can include refreshing faded leather furniture or changing the color of upholstered pieces without a full fabric replacement.
Can you match the original fabric color if I just need a section repaired?
Exact fabric matching can be tricky, especially on older pieces, but experienced upholsterers can often find very close substitutes or suggest dyeing options. Bringing in a fabric sample or photo helps the shop source the closest available match.
How much does furniture reupholstery typically cost in Miami?
Pricing varies widely based on the size of the piece, the fabric you choose, and the condition of the existing frame and padding. A simple dining chair seat might cost $50 to $150, while a full sofa reupholstery can range from $800 to $2,500 or more.
Is it worth reupholstering furniture vs. buying new?
If the frame is solid and the piece has sentimental value or good bones, reupholstery almost always makes sense. It's also a more sustainable choice, and you get exactly the fabric you want rather than settling for what's available in stores.
Do you work with leather as well as fabric?
Yes, leather reupholstery and leather dyeing are both common services at tapeceria shops like Juan's. Leather work requires different tools and techniques than fabric, but skilled upholsterers handle both materials regularly.
How long does a full sofa reupholstery take?
A standard sofa typically takes one to three weeks from start to finish, depending on the shop's workload and how complex the piece is. Custom fabric orders may add time if materials need to be sourced from a supplier.
