Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery is the primary focus here, taking worn or outdated pieces and restoring them with fresh fabric, new padding, and reinforced frames. This typically covers armchairs, sofas, ottomans, dining chairs, and headboards. Cushion replacement is often part of the process, swapping out compressed or broken-down foam for higher-density material that holds its shape longer. Fabric selection is a collaborative part of the job, helping customers match new upholstery to their existing room colors, patterns, and overall style.

Smallidge David and Victoria serves Lamoine and the surrounding Hancock County communities, including Ellsworth, Bar Harbor, Blue Hill, and Trenton.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to match a specific fabric color or pattern for my furniture?
Many upholstery shops can source fabrics through wholesale suppliers with hundreds of options, making it possible to get very close to a specific color or pattern. Bringing in a swatch or photo of your room helps narrow down the choices quickly.
How much does it typically cost to reupholster a chair in the Lamoine area?
A basic dining chair seat might run $75 to $150 depending on fabric and labor, while a full armchair reupholstery can range from $300 to $700 or more for complex pieces. Getting an in-person estimate is the only way to get an accurate number for your specific piece.
Can you reupholster furniture that has antique or fragile frames?
Experienced upholsterers handle antique frames regularly and know how to work carefully around delicate wood, carved details, and older joinery. It's worth mentioning upfront if your piece is an antique so the shop can plan the approach accordingly.
Do I need to remove the furniture legs before dropping off a piece?
Most shops prefer you leave the piece fully assembled so they can assess it accurately and disassemble it the right way themselves. If legs are loose or you're worried about damage in transport, you can remove them and bring them along separately.
What's the best fabric for a house near the Maine coast?
Performance fabrics, especially solution-dyed acrylics or tightly woven synthetic blends, hold up best in coastal environments where humidity and salt air are factors. They're also easier to clean, which matters if you're dealing with sandy feet and active households near the water.
Can a small Downeast Maine upholstery shop handle large sectional sofas?
Most experienced upholsterers can tackle sectionals, though they'll typically ask you to break the piece into its individual sections for transport. Measure doorways before scheduling a pickup or drop-off to avoid logistical headaches on the day.
