Services & Process

Positano's focuses on furniture reupholstery and furniture repair, two services that cover most of what homeowners and interior designers need. Reupholstery means stripping old fabric down to the frame, replacing padding and springs if necessary, and wrapping everything in your chosen material. Furniture repair handles structural problems like broken frames, wobbly legs, or damaged joints that make a piece unsafe or unusable. Whether you're dealing with a treasured heirloom or a high-quality modern piece, both services extend the life of furniture that's worth keeping.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to reupholster a sofa in Westmont?
Sofa reupholstery in the western Chicago suburbs typically runs between $800 and $2,500 depending on the size, fabric choice, and condition of the frame. Getting an in-person or photo-based quote from the shop is the most accurate way to know what your specific piece will cost.
Is it worth reupholstering old furniture instead of buying new?
If the frame is solid and the piece has sentimental value or was originally well-made, reupholstering almost always makes more financial and practical sense. Quality new furniture at a comparable build level often costs significantly more than restoring what you already own.
Can I bring my own fabric to the shop?
Most upholstery shops including those in Westmont accept customer-supplied fabric, though they'll want to verify it's appropriate for the type of piece and intended use. It's a good idea to call ahead and confirm yardage requirements before purchasing your material.
How long does furniture reupholstery take?
A standard chair typically takes about one week, while sofas and more complex pieces can take two to three weeks depending on the shop's current workload. Shops usually give you a realistic timeframe when you drop off the piece.
Do upholstery shops also fix broken furniture frames?
Yes, furniture repair is a core service alongside reupholstery. This includes fixing cracked frames, re-gluing joints, replacing broken springs, and reinforcing legs so the piece is structurally sound before new fabric goes on.
What types of fabric are best for high-traffic furniture?
Woven fabrics like chenille, microfiber, and performance textiles with a high rub count hold up well in busy households. If you have pets or kids, the shop can point you toward fabrics that are durable and easy to clean without sacrificing appearance.
