Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Slipcover Man specializes in furniture reupholstery, covering sofas, sectionals, chairs, ottomans, and other upholstered pieces from residential settings. The work includes removing existing fabric, evaluating and replacing foam or padding as needed, and applying new material with clean, professional finishing. Slipcovers, as the name suggests, are also a specialty here. These custom-fitted removable covers are ideal for protecting original upholstery, refreshing a piece's look without permanent changes, or giving furniture a seasonal update. Both permanent reupholstery and removable slipcovers require precise measuring and cutting, and this shop brings that precision to every job.

Customers from throughout Hennepin County regularly work with this shop, and the Plymouth location makes it an easy stop for anyone in the I-394 or I-494 corridor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a custom slipcover and store-bought options?
Store-bought slipcovers are made to approximate sizes and rarely fit well on specific furniture. A custom slipcover is measured and cut to your exact piece, so it sits smoothly, stays put, and actually looks intentional.
Can slipcovers be made to be machine washable?
Yes, fabric selection matters here. A good upholsterer will point you toward materials that hold up to regular washing if that's a priority, which is especially useful for homes with kids or pets.
My sectional has an unusual configuration. Can you still make a slipcover for it?
Custom slipcovers can be made for virtually any configuration, including L-shaped sectionals, pieces with chaise extensions, and modular setups. Each section is measured and made individually to fit cleanly.
Is reupholstery or a slipcover the better choice for an older sofa?
If the sofa's frame is solid and you want a permanent, tailored look, reupholstery is the stronger choice. If you want flexibility, easier cleaning, or aren't ready to commit to one fabric long-term, a well-made slipcover is a smart alternative.
How much fabric is typically needed for a standard sofa slipcover?
A standard three-cushion sofa generally requires anywhere from 12 to 20 yards of fabric depending on the sofa's size, the fabric width, and whether the pattern needs to be matched. Your upholsterer will calculate the exact amount during the consultation.
Do you serve customers outside of Plymouth, like Maple Grove or Minnetonka?
Yes, Slipcover Man works with clients from across the western Twin Cities suburbs. Most customers are happy to drop off and pick up their pieces directly at the Plymouth shop.
