Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery at a shop like Tina's typically covers sofas, loveseats, recliners, dining chairs, and bedroom furniture with upholstered components. The process starts with removing old fabric, inspecting the frame, and replacing foam and padding that's gone flat or lost its support. Customers choose from a fabric sample collection that includes everything from durable polyester blends to natural linens and faux leathers. Custom cushion rebuilding is also common, especially for older sofas where the original foam has compressed over years of use.

Service Area

Tina's Upholstery serves La Vergne and the surrounding Rutherford County communities. Customers from Smyrna, Antioch, and Murfreesboro are all within easy reach. The shop's location just off I-24 makes it accessible for anyone commuting through that corridor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my furniture frame is worth reupholstering?
A solid hardwood frame that doesn't wobble or creak is almost always worth restoring. Particleboard or cheap softwood frames may not justify the cost since they can fail again quickly. A good upholstery shop will inspect the frame when you bring the piece in and give you an honest opinion before you commit.
What fabrics work best for homes with kids or pets in La Vergne?
Performance fabrics like Crypton, Sunbrella, and tightly woven synthetic blends are popular choices for active households because they resist stains, moisture, and abrasion. Microfiber is another solid option that cleans up easily. Your upholsterer can walk you through the rub count, which measures how well a fabric holds up to friction, so you pick something built to last.
Can a recliner be reupholstered without losing its function?
Yes, recliners can be reupholstered while keeping the mechanical components fully intact. An experienced upholsterer knows how to work around the reclining mechanism and reattach fabric panels in a way that doesn't interfere with how the chair moves. It's a more involved job than a basic chair but very doable.
How much fabric do I need for a standard sofa?
A typical three-cushion sofa requires roughly 12 to 18 yards of fabric depending on the style, cushion count, and whether there's a pattern that needs to be matched. Patterned fabrics require more yardage because of the matching involved at seams and edges. The shop can give you an exact yardage estimate once they measure the piece.
Is reupholstering more affordable in La Vergne than in Nashville?
Generally yes. Shops in suburban and smaller cities like La Vergne tend to have lower overhead, which often translates to more competitive pricing for the same quality of work. You get the advantage of proximity to Nashville-area fabric suppliers without paying city-center pricing. It's worth getting a quote from a local shop before assuming you need to go into Nashville.
Can you replace just the cushion foam without reupholstering the whole piece?
Absolutely. If the fabric is in good shape but the cushions have gone flat, foam replacement alone can make an old sofa feel brand new again. The shop can cut new high-density foam to match the original dimensions and wrap it in a fresh layer of Dacron batting for a softer top layer. It's one of the most cost-effective upholstery services available.
