About LaGrange Upholstery

LaGrange Upholstery serves the western suburbs of Chicago from its base in La Grange, Illinois, holding a 4.8 rating from 25 customers. La Grange is a well-established community along the BNSF Metra line, surrounded by older residential neighborhoods where quality furniture often just needs updating rather than replacing. The shop covers reupholstery, refinishing, and furniture repair, which makes it a practical choice for homeowners dealing with pieces that have structural or cosmetic wear on both the fabric and wood components.

Furniture Reupholstery

Furniture Repair

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery involves stripping worn fabric, replacing padding and support materials, and applying new covering selected by the customer. Refinishing tackles the wood surfaces, whether that means repairing scratches and stains, stripping old finish entirely, or applying a new stain and top coat to refresh the look. Furniture repair addresses broken joints, damaged frames, loose hardware, and structural weaknesses that need to be fixed before any cosmetic work makes sense. Together, these three services allow the shop to restore a piece completely.

Service Area

LaGrange Upholstery serves La Grange and the surrounding western suburbs, including Western Springs, Hinsdale, Brookfield, and Countryside. Customers from neighboring communities along the Metra BNSF corridor regularly use the shop. It's a convenient option for western Cook County residents who prefer a local provider over making the drive into Chicago.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you handle both the wood refinishing and reupholstery on the same piece?
Yes, and doing both together is actually the most efficient approach. The shop can complete all structural and wood work before the new fabric goes on, ensuring a cleaner result and saving you from coordinating multiple vendors.
What types of wood finishes can you apply?
Common options include stains in various shades, clear lacquer, varnish, and painted finishes. The right choice depends on the wood type, the existing finish, and the look you're going for. The shop can guide you through what works best for your specific piece.
Can you repair furniture legs and joints before reupholstering?
Absolutely. Loose joints and broken legs should always be fixed before new fabric is applied. Skipping that step means the structural problem will come back and potentially damage the new upholstery.
How do I transport a large sofa or sectional to your shop?
For large pieces, many shops offer pickup and delivery for an added fee. If you're handling transport yourself, disassembling sectionals into individual pieces makes them much easier to move. Call ahead to discuss logistics.
Are your services available to commercial clients, like offices or rental properties?
Most upholstery and repair shops work with both residential and commercial clients. Commercial property managers often need multiple chairs or sofas refurbished at once, and shops can usually accommodate larger orders with advance scheduling.
How do I know what's wrong with my furniture before I bring it in?
You don't need to diagnose it yourself. Bring it in or send detailed photos, and the shop will evaluate the frame, cushions, fabric, and finish to give you a full picture of what's needed. A good shop will explain exactly what they find and why each repair matters.
