Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at L & S Upholstery covers the full process of renewing a piece, from pulling off the old fabric and webbing to installing new padding and applying fresh material. Jobs range from single dining chairs to large sectional sofas, with fabric options spanning everything from durable cotton-poly blends to premium leather and velvet. Foam and cushion work is typically included when needed, since old foam that's collapsed or lost its shape affects both comfort and the finished appearance of the upholstered surface.

Customers from nearby towns including Nixa, Ozark, and Fair Grove regularly come in for upholstery work. The Springfield location offers central access for residents throughout Greene and Christian counties.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many yards of fabric do I need to reupholster a loveseat?
A standard loveseat typically requires between 7 and 10 yards of fabric, depending on the style and whether the pattern needs to be matched. More complex pieces with cushions, skirts, or rolled arms use more material. Your upholsterer can give you an exact yardage figure once they've measured the piece.
Can upholstery shops fix springs and frames as well as fabric?
Most upholstery shops handle basic frame and spring repairs as part of the reupholstery process. This might include retying coil springs, replacing broken webbing, or tightening loose frame joints. Major structural damage may require a furniture repair specialist, but many common issues are addressed right in the upholstery shop.
Is leather upholstery more expensive to work with than fabric?
Yes, leather typically costs more per yard than most fabric options, and it requires more skill to cut and sew without visible errors. That said, leather upholstery is extremely durable and easy to clean, which many customers find justifies the higher upfront cost over time.
What should I look for when choosing upholstery fabric?
Consider the rub count, which measures a fabric's durability under friction. For everyday furniture, look for fabrics rated above 15,000 double rubs. Color fastness, stain resistance, and whether the fabric cleans well with water or requires dry cleaning are also important practical factors.
Do Springfield upholstery shops offer pickup and delivery?
Some shops offer this service for an additional fee, while others require customer drop-off and pickup. It's always worth asking when you call, especially for large or heavy pieces that are difficult to transport. Pickup and delivery can make the process much more convenient for those with limited transportation options.
How do I prepare my furniture before dropping it off for reupholstery?
Clear out any items stored in the piece and remove loose cushions separately to make transport easier. You don't need to clean it thoroughly, since the upholsterer will be removing all the old fabric anyway. Just make sure it's accessible and easy to load into your vehicle.
