About McGuire Custom Upholstery

McGuire Custom Upholstery is based in Sapulpa, a Creek County town located just southwest of Tulsa along historic Route 66. The shop focuses on furniture reupholstery, which is a natural fit for a community where people tend to hold onto quality pieces for a long time. Sapulpa has a strong tradition of craftsmanship, and a custom upholstery operation fits right into that culture. Customers come from both Sapulpa itself and from neighboring communities looking for more personalized service than larger metro shops typically offer.

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Custom upholstery work here goes beyond simply swapping out old fabric. It involves consulting with the customer on fabric type, color, pattern, and texture to make sure the finished piece fits the room it's going back into. Cushion replacement is a common add-on, since foam degrades over time and new fabric on flat, sunken cushions doesn't do a piece justice. The shop handles a range of furniture types including sofas, recliners, ottomans, and accent chairs, with attention to details like welt cord finishing, button tufting, and clean corner work.

Service Area

McGuire Custom Upholstery serves Sapulpa and surrounding Creek County communities, along with customers who drive in from the southwestern Tulsa metro. Towns like Kellyville, Kiefer, and Bristow are within reasonable distance for customers willing to make the trip for quality custom work. The Route 66 corridor location makes the shop easy to find from both the Tulsa side and points further west.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'custom' upholstery mean compared to standard reupholstery?
Custom upholstery means you're actively involved in choosing every detail, from fabric type and color to finishing elements like tufting, welt cord style, and cushion firmness. Standard reupholstery might involve selecting from a limited fabric menu, while custom work gives you far more control over the final result.
How do I choose the right fabric for a piece that gets a lot of sun exposure?
Fabrics in sunny rooms or near windows need to be fade-resistant, so look for solution-dyed acrylics or fabrics with UV-resistant coatings. Your upholsterer can point you toward options specifically rated for sunlight exposure, which will hold their color significantly longer than standard decorator fabrics.
Can you reupholster a recliner without losing its functionality?
Yes, experienced upholstery shops reupholster recliners regularly and know how to work around the mechanical components. The process takes longer than a standard chair because of the extra disassembly and reassembly involved, but the reclining function is fully preserved.
Do you work on antique or heirloom furniture?
Antique and heirloom pieces require extra care during disassembly to avoid damaging original frame elements or decorative details. A shop experienced with older furniture knows how to approach these jobs with appropriate caution, and can often advise on period-appropriate fabric choices if that matters to you.
How much fabric does a standard sofa require?
A typical three-cushion sofa requires between 12 and 18 yards of fabric, depending on the piece's size and whether the fabric has a pattern repeat that requires matching. Your upholsterer will calculate the exact yardage after measuring the piece, and can tell you what to order if you're sourcing your own material.
Is there a difference in quality between foam grades for cushion replacement?
Absolutely. Foam is rated by density and firmness, and lower-density foam breaks down much faster under daily use. A good upholstery shop will recommend high-resilience foam in the 1.8 to 2.2 density range for seat cushions, which holds its shape significantly longer than the cheaper foam used in most mass-market furniture.
