They handle furniture repair, reupholstery, and assembly, making them a practical choice when a piece needs more than just new fabric. With 2 reviews and a 3-star rating, they're still building their reputation, but the range of services they offer means customers with complex furniture problems have a single place to address multiple issues at once. Indianapolis has no shortage of older homes with furniture that needs this kind of multi-step attention.

Services & Process

Furniture repair at Revive Craft covers structural fixes like regluing joints, replacing broken legs, fixing drawer mechanisms, and stabilizing wobbly frames. Reupholstery work involves removing old fabric, updating padding or foam, and recovering the piece in new material. The assembly side of the business handles flat-pack or disassembled furniture that needs professional construction, particularly useful for complex pieces that arrive in many parts. Having all three capabilities under one roof means a damaged sofa with a broken frame and worn fabric can be fully restored in a single visit.

Revive Craft serves Indianapolis and the greater Marion County region. Their location makes them accessible to residents across the city, including those coming from the northwest side, the south side, and communities like Southport and Cumberland.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a furniture repair shop also reupholster the same piece?
Yes, and it's actually more efficient to use one shop for both services. When a shop like Revive Craft handles the structural repair and the reupholstery together, the work gets sequenced correctly, with frame fixes happening before new fabric goes on. Splitting the work between two separate shops can lead to scheduling headaches and mismatched expectations.
How do I know if my furniture frame is worth repairing?
A shop that does both repair and reupholstery can give you an honest answer during the initial assessment. Solid wood frames, even damaged ones, are usually worth fixing because the underlying structure is strong. Particleboard or MDF frames are harder to repair durably and may not justify the cost. Ask the shop to give you their honest opinion before committing to the work.
Do you offer furniture assembly for flat-pack items in Indianapolis?
Assembly services for flat-pack furniture are available from shops that list it as a specialty, including Revive Craft. This is useful for large or complicated pieces where the instruction manual isn't cutting it. Professional assembly also ensures pieces are built correctly the first time, which matters for structural longevity.
What's the difference between furniture repair and furniture restoration?
Repair typically means fixing a specific broken or damaged part, like a loose joint, cracked leg, or broken drawer slide. Restoration is a broader process that brings a piece back to its original or near-original condition, often including refinishing, reupholstery, and structural work together. Some shops use the terms interchangeably, so it's worth asking exactly what's included in any quote you receive.
How long does it take to repair and reupholster a piece of furniture?
When both repair and reupholstery are involved, the timeline is usually longer than for reupholstery alone, often two to four weeks depending on the scope of work and how quickly materials arrive. Structural repairs need to cure or dry before fabric work begins, so there's a natural sequencing that adds time. Ask for a realistic estimate when you drop off the piece.
Is it possible to change the style of a furniture piece during reupholstery?
Absolutely. Reupholstery is actually a great opportunity to update the look of a piece, whether that means changing from a traditional pattern to a solid fabric, switching from a casual weave to leather, or updating the cushion profile. The underlying frame stays the same, but the finished result can look completely different. Bring inspiration photos if you have a specific look in mind.
