Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at a custom shop means stripping a piece down to its frame, inspecting and repairing the structure as needed, and then rebuilding it with new webbing, padding, and fabric of your choosing. Fabric selection is a major part of the process, with options typically ranging from performance fabrics suited to family use to higher-end textiles for formal pieces. Custom work also means you can change the look entirely, updating a dated pattern or switching from fabric to leather. Cushion rebuilding is usually included, ensuring the finished piece feels as good as it looks.

Service Area

Tiger Bend Custom Upholstery serves Prairieville and the surrounding Ascension Parish area. Customers from neighboring communities like Gonzales, Dutchtown, and the south Baton Rouge corridor regularly make the short drive for custom work.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right fabric for reupholstery?
The right fabric depends on how the piece will be used. High-traffic pieces like family room sofas benefit from performance fabrics rated for durability and stain resistance, while accent chairs in lower-use rooms can handle more delicate options.
Can Tiger Bend Custom Upholstery change the style of my furniture during reupholstery?
Yes, reupholstery is a great opportunity to update the look of a piece entirely. You can change the fabric color, pattern, and even some design details like tufting or nail head trim depending on the piece.
How long does custom reupholstery take in the Prairieville area?
Most custom reupholstery projects run two to four weeks once the fabric has been selected and ordered. If the chosen fabric needs to be special-ordered, add a week or two for shipping before work begins.
Is reupholstery more expensive than buying new furniture?
For quality pieces with solid frames, reupholstery often costs less than replacing with something of equal build quality from a store. The value is even greater for antiques or custom-sized pieces that can't easily be replaced.
Do upholstery shops in Ascension Parish work on antique furniture?
Custom upholstery shops are generally well-suited to antique work because they handle pieces individually rather than in batches. It's worth confirming the shop has experience with older joinery and period-appropriate materials before committing.
What should I do to prepare my furniture before dropping it off?
Remove cushions if they detach separately and clear out any items stored inside ottoman storage pieces. Beyond that, the shop will handle the disassembly and inspection as part of the process.
