Services & Process

As a fabric retailer and upholstery shop combined, Rendel's lets customers browse and select from an in-store fabric inventory rather than relying entirely on samples or special orders. Furniture reupholstery services cover sofas, armchairs, dining chairs, benches, and headboards. The shop handles fabric removal, frame and spring inspection, cushion foam replacement, and precise cutting and attachment of new fabric. Having fabric on-site can also shorten the lead time on projects since you're not waiting on material to be shipped.

Service Area

Rendel's serves Ann Arbor and the surrounding Washtenaw County area. Clients from Ypsilanti, Saline, and Dexter regularly make the trip into Ann Arbor for upholstery and fabric services. The shop is a central option for anyone in southeastern Michigan looking for both materials and skilled craftsmanship in one location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I buy fabric at your store to do my own upholstery project?
Yes, the fabric retail side of the business is open to DIYers and trade clients alike. Staff can help you estimate yardage and advise on whether a fabric is suitable for the type of project you're working on.
What types of fabric do you carry in store?
Upholstery shops with in-house fabric stores typically stock a range including cotton blends, performance fabrics, velvets, wovens, and faux leather. Visiting in person gives you the chance to feel the weight and texture before committing.
How does your upholstery pricing compare to buying new furniture?
For quality pieces with solid frames, reupholstery frequently comes out ahead on value. Ann Arbor's cost of living and design expectations mean customers here tend to do the math carefully, and a good upholstery job on a durable frame often outlasts equivalent new furniture at the same price point.
Do you work with interior designers or decorators?
Many upholstery shops that also carry fabric develop ongoing relationships with local designers who refer clients or bring in fabric for custom projects. It's worth asking about trade accounts or designer pricing if that applies to you.
Can you reupholster a piece I found at an estate sale?
Absolutely. Estate sale and vintage market finds are among the most common items that come through upholstery shops. A solid older frame cleaned up, restrung if needed, and covered in fresh fabric can end up as a high-quality custom piece.
What's your typical wait time for a reupholstery project in Ann Arbor?
Wait times vary based on how busy the shop is and how complex your project is. Calling ahead at (734) 662-4706 to ask about current scheduling gives you a realistic picture before you drop anything off.
