Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery is the foundation of Rob's work, covering sofas, chairs, ottomans, and specialty pieces like boat cushions and camp furniture that are common in this part of coastal Maine. Each project involves removing old fabric and padding, inspecting the frame and support structure for any issues, and rebuilding with new materials suited to the piece's intended use. Outdoor and marine-adjacent environments in the Frenchman Bay area make moisture-resistant fabric choices particularly relevant for camp and seasonal furniture. Indoor pieces get the same careful treatment with fabric options suited to everyday residential life.

Service Area

Rob's Upholstery is located in Lamoine and serves customers throughout Hancock County and the greater Ellsworth area. That includes Trenton, Bar Harbor, Mount Desert, and towns along the Blue Hill Peninsula. Seasonal residents heading to Acadia for the summer often bring furniture in before or after peak season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you reupholster camp or cabin furniture that's been stored for a season?
Camp furniture that's been in storage often shows up with mildew, compressed foam, or brittle fabric, all of which reupholstery can address. It's a good idea to have pieces assessed early in the season so the work can be completed before you need the furniture.
Can outdoor or marine cushions be reupholstered for a second life?
Yes, outdoor cushions and boat seating can be redone with weather-resistant, UV-stable fabrics that extend their useful life considerably. Marine-grade vinyl and solution-dyed acrylic are both solid options for pieces that live near water.
How far in advance should I schedule reupholstery work?
Smaller shops in rural Maine often book several weeks out, so it's worth calling as soon as you know you have a project. Scheduling ahead of the summer busy season is especially smart for anyone with seasonal furniture needs.
Can you reupholster a recliner or chair with mechanical components?
Recliners and mechanism chairs are more complex to reupholster because the fabric has to be fitted around moving parts, but experienced upholsterers handle them regularly. The assessment will include checking whether the mechanism itself is in good working order.
What's the best way to maintain newly reupholstered furniture?
Regular vacuuming, prompt spot cleaning, and keeping pieces out of direct sunlight all help extend the life of new upholstery fabric. The shop can recommend specific cleaning products compatible with the fabric used on your piece.
Do you handle large or heavy furniture, or does the customer need to transport it?
Policies vary, so it's best to ask Rob's directly about pickup or delivery options for large pieces. For items you can't easily move on your own, some upholsterers in the area will make arrangements for an additional fee.
