Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between upholstery work and sewing alterations for furniture?
Upholstery involves attaching fabric to furniture frames and replacing padding or springs, while sewing alterations for furniture typically covers items like cushion covers, slipcovers, or fabric repairs that don't require disassembling a piece. Shops that do both can handle a wider range of home furnishing projects under one roof.
Can Reem's make custom slipcovers for my furniture?
Yes, the shop's sewing background makes custom slipcover fabrication a natural fit alongside their upholstery work. Slipcovers are a good option when you want to protect existing upholstery or change up a look without committing to a full reupholstery job.
How do I know if my furniture needs full reupholstery or just a cushion replacement?
If the fabric is worn or damaged but the cushion filling still feels supportive, a fabric replacement or slipcover may be all you need. When the cushions feel flat or the springs are sagging, full reupholstery that includes new foam and structural work will give you much better results.
Does the shop handle decorative pillow and cushion fabrication from scratch?
Because sewing is a core part of the business, custom pillow and cushion fabrication is something they're well-suited for. You can bring in fabric you've already purchased or work with the shop to select materials that match your existing furniture.
What fabrics work best for furniture with heavy daily use?
Performance fabrics like Crypton, Sunbrella indoor blends, or tightly woven polyester-nylon mixes hold up well under daily use and are easier to clean. An experienced upholsterer can walk you through options that balance durability with the look you're going for.
Can I get a quote over the phone without bringing my furniture in?
Most shops can give you a rough estimate based on the type of piece and the fabric category you're considering, but an accurate quote typically requires seeing the item in person. Sending clear photos can help narrow down the range before you make the trip.
