Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

R & M Upholstery focuses on furniture reupholstery, which covers everything from stripping a worn armchair down to the frame and rebuilding it with fresh foam and fabric to replacing individual cushion covers on a sectional. The process typically includes a thorough inspection of springs, webbing, and frame joints before any new material goes on. Dining chair seats, recliners, loveseats, and accent chairs are common projects. Customers who want to update the look of a piece without buying new furniture often find that reupholstery gives them more design flexibility than anything available at retail.

Service Area

R & M Upholstery serves Pearl, MS, and the surrounding Rankin County communities including Brandon, Flowood, and Richland. It's also a practical option for customers coming from east Jackson or nearby areas of Simpson and Scott counties. The shop's central location in the metro area makes drop-off straightforward for most customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does furniture reupholstery cost in the Pearl, MS area?
Pricing varies significantly based on the size of the piece, the type of fabric chosen, and how much structural work is needed. A dining chair might run a couple hundred dollars, while a full sofa reupholstery can range from several hundred to over a thousand depending on complexity. Getting an in-person estimate is the most reliable way to know what your specific project will cost.
Is it better to reupholster furniture or buy new?
If you have a piece with a solid frame, good proportions, or sentimental value, reupholstery usually wins on both quality and cost. Mass-market furniture today often uses cheaper frame materials than older pieces, so a well-built sofa from 20 years ago might actually be worth more after reupholstery than anything at a similar price point in stores. The fabric you choose also tends to be more durable than what comes standard on new retail furniture.
Does R & M Upholstery work on antique furniture?
Upholstery shops that specialize in furniture reupholstery generally have experience with antique pieces, though it's worth asking upfront about any particularly delicate or unusual construction. Older furniture often requires hand-tied spring work or specific techniques that differ from modern furniture. Letting the shop know what you're bringing in before your visit helps ensure they're prepared for the job.
What should I bring to my first appointment at an upholstery shop?
Photos of your piece are helpful if you can't bring it in right away, but the most useful thing is the actual furniture so the shop can assess the frame and existing materials firsthand. If you have fabric ideas or inspiration images, those are worth bringing too. The more information you share about what you're looking for, the more accurate your estimate will be.
Can an upholstery shop in Pearl match my existing home decor?
Yes, most shops work with fabric sample books covering a wide range of colors, textures, and patterns so you can find something that fits your existing room. If you need an exact match to another fabric in your home, bringing a swatch is helpful. Custom fabric sourcing is also possible if you have something specific in mind.
How do I care for newly reupholstered furniture?
The care routine depends largely on the fabric type, so ask your upholsterer for specific guidance when you pick up your piece. In general, regular vacuuming, prompt spot cleaning, and keeping upholstered pieces out of direct sunlight will extend the life of the fabric significantly. Avoid harsh cleaners on anything that hasn't been tested on an inconspicuous area first.
