Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at Rightime Products covers the standard process of removing old fabric, assessing the condition of the frame and internal padding, and applying new material according to the customer's preferences. This applies to a wide range of household pieces, from dining chairs and occasional chairs to larger items like sofas and loveseats. Fabric choices play a big role in the final cost and durability, and a reupholstery consultation typically covers what options are available at different price points. Customers often find that refreshing an older piece with quality fabric is more satisfying than buying something new at the same price.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between reupholstering and slipcovers?
Reupholstering permanently replaces the fabric by pulling off the old material and stapling or sewing on new fabric directly to the frame. Slipcovers are removable covers that fit over existing upholstery, which is less involved but also less tailored in appearance.
Can Rightime Products work with fabric I supply myself?
Some upholstery shops accept customer-supplied fabric, but it's important to ask upfront since not all do. If they do accept it, make sure you have enough yardage based on their measurements, as running short mid-project creates delays.
How do I measure how much fabric I need for a chair reupholstery project?
The amount depends on the size and complexity of the chair, including the number of cushioned surfaces and whether there's tufting or welting involved. An upholsterer can give you an accurate yardage estimate once they see the piece, which is the most reliable approach.
Does reupholstering furniture increase its resale value?
For quality vintage or antique pieces, a professional reupholstery job can significantly increase resale value, especially if the original fabric was badly worn. For mass-produced modern furniture, the math is less favorable since the reupholstery cost may exceed the resale gain.
What should I look for when choosing upholstery fabric for a high-traffic area?
Look for fabrics with a high rub count, which measures abrasion resistance, and consider stain-treated options if spills are likely. Tightly woven fabrics in synthetic blends tend to hold up better over time than loosely woven natural fibers in busy spots.
Is it possible to change the style of a piece during reupholstery, like adding button tufting?
Yes, reupholstery is a good opportunity to update the style of a piece, and adding tufting, changing the cushion profile, or adjusting the trim are all things a skilled upholsterer can do. These modifications may add cost and time, so discuss them early in the planning process.
