About Sooner Upholstery

Sooner Upholstery is based in Norman, Oklahoma, home to the University of Oklahoma and a city that blends college-town energy with established residential neighborhoods. The name is a clear nod to the local identity, and that kind of community connection matters when you're trusting someone with your grandmother's armchair or a family heirloom sofa. What sets this shop apart from many competitors is the combination of furniture reupholstery and refinishing services, meaning they can address both fabric and wood in a single visit. That's a meaningful advantage for anyone restoring older or antique pieces.

Furniture Reupholstery
Refinishing Services

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery here covers the full range of upholstered pieces, from dining chair cushions to large sectionals. Refinishing services add a second dimension to what the shop can do, including stripping, staining, and sealing exposed wood frames on chairs, tables, and case pieces. When a piece needs both new fabric and refinished legs or arms, getting it all done in one place saves time and ensures the colors coordinate properly. This combination of services is especially useful for antique and vintage furniture that's showing its age in more ways than one.

Service Area

Sooner Upholstery serves Norman and the surrounding areas, including residents from south Oklahoma City, Moore, and Noble who want a local shop rather than driving into the city center. The Norman location near OU's campus makes it easy to reach from most parts of Cleveland County.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Sooner Upholstery refinish the wood frame on my furniture at the same time as reupholstering it?
Yes, that's one of the advantages of a shop that offers both services. Coordinating the refinishing and reupholstery in one visit means the colors and finishes are chosen together, and you only have to drop off and pick up once.
What does furniture refinishing actually involve?
Refinishing typically means stripping the existing finish off the wood, addressing any scratches or damage, then applying a new stain or paint and a protective topcoat. The result is a surface that looks clean and consistent rather than worn and uneven.
Do Norman upholstery shops work on antique furniture?
Yes, antique restoration is a common request. Older pieces often need both structural repairs and careful fabric selection to honor the original style while making the piece functional again.
How do I know if my furniture frame is worth restoring?
Solid wood frames, dovetail joints, and eight-way hand-tied spring systems are signs of quality construction worth preserving. A good upholsterer will inspect the piece and tell you honestly if it makes financial sense to restore it.
What's the difference between reupholstering and slip-covering furniture?
Reupholstering replaces the fabric permanently and usually includes replacing padding and inspecting the frame. Slip covers are removable covers that go over the existing upholstery, which is quicker and cheaper but less polished looking.
How far in advance should I schedule an upholstery project in Norman?
Local shops can get busy, especially in spring and fall when people are refreshing their homes. Calling a few weeks ahead gives you a better chance of getting your preferred timeline, particularly for larger or more complex projects.
