About Nicks Custom Trim & Garage

Duquesne sits along the Monongahela River just south of Pittsburgh, in an area with a strong culture of hands-on craftsmanship and DIY pride. A shop that handles both car interiors and household furniture understands fabric, foam, and stitching across very different applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you reupholster the seats in a classic or vintage car?
Yes, classic car interiors are a specialty that shops like this are well-suited for. Whether you want a factory-correct restoration or a custom look, the shop can work with you on fabric, foam thickness, and stitching patterns.
What materials are used for auto seat reupholstery?
Common options include vinyl, leather, leather alternatives, and automotive-grade fabric. Each has different trade-offs in terms of cost, durability, feel, and how well they hold up to heat and sun exposure in a car interior.
Can you replace a car's headliner?
Headliner replacement is a standard auto upholstery service involving removing the old sagging material and applying new fabric to the backing board. It's a repair that dramatically improves the interior appearance and is often more affordable than people expect.
Do you work on trucks and SUVs, not just cars?
Trucks, SUVs, and vans are all fair game for auto upholstery work. Bench seats, captain's chairs, and custom cargo area interiors are all projects a shop like this can handle.
Can the same shop really do good work on both car interiors and home furniture?
The core skills overlap significantly since both involve cutting fabric precisely, working with foam, and applying material cleanly under tension. A shop that does both regularly tends to bring strong technical habits to either type of project.
How do I protect new upholstery on my car seats from fading or cracking?
For leather or vinyl, a UV protectant applied regularly goes a long way toward preventing cracking and fading from sun exposure. Keeping the car parked in shade or using a windshield sunshade also significantly extends the life of any auto interior material.
