Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

T & T Upholstery Shop specializes in furniture reupholstery, covering the full process from stripping old fabric to applying new material over repaired or replaced cushioning. Typical projects include sofas, sectionals, armchairs, accent chairs, and ottomans. Foam and batting replacement is usually part of the job, since interior padding degrades at a similar rate to exterior fabric. Fabric selection, including guidance on durability, texture, and color matching to existing decor, is a standard part of the customer conversation.

Service Area

T & T Upholstery Shop is located in Columbia, SC, and serves customers throughout the greater Columbia area. Richland County residents, as well as those coming in from Lexington and Kershaw counties, are within easy reach of the shop. The central Columbia location makes it accessible from most parts of the Midlands.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I prepare my furniture before dropping it off at T & T?
Remove cushions and any decorative pillows before transporting the piece, and clean off any obvious debris. The shop will handle disassembly as part of the reupholstery process, so you don't need to strip anything yourself.
Can T & T Upholstery match fabric to the rest of my room's decor?
Bringing in fabric swatches, paint chips, or photos of your room helps the shop guide you toward the right color and texture. Most upholsterers work with a range of fabric books and can order specific materials if their in-stock selection doesn't include what you need.
Is it possible to reupholster just the cushions without recovering the whole sofa?
Yes, cushion-only jobs are common and can significantly refresh a piece without the cost of full reupholstery. This works best when the outer shell fabric is still in decent condition and the cushions are the primary source of wear.
What's the difference between reupholstering and slipcovers?
Reupholstery involves removing old fabric and applying new material directly to the frame, giving a permanent, tailored result. Slipcovers are a removable cover that fits over existing upholstery, which is lower cost but rarely as clean-looking.
How do I know if the foam inside my sofa needs to be replaced?
If you sink noticeably when you sit, the seat cushion doesn't spring back, or you can feel the frame beneath you, the foam has broken down and needs replacing. New foam makes a bigger difference in comfort than most people expect.
Does Columbia's humidity affect upholstered furniture over time?
It can, particularly in rooms with poor ventilation or furniture stored in humid spaces like basements or enclosed porches. Choosing moisture-resistant fabrics and keeping air circulating around your furniture helps extend its life significantly.
