Services & Process

Furniture repair at Unique Short Tree covers structural issues like broken frames, loose joints, and damaged legs, which often need attention before any fabric work begins. Reupholstery services include full fabric replacement on sofas, chairs, headboards, and ottomans, with fabric selection that benefits from the shop's interior design background. The interior design component means clients can get coordinated advice on how a newly upholstered piece will work within a room's overall color palette and layout. This combination of repair, fabric work, and design thinking is genuinely rare in a single local shop.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of furniture repairs does Unique Short Tree handle beyond reupholstery?
Structural repairs like regluing joints, replacing broken legs, fixing seat frames, and reinforcing wobbly bases are all common jobs for a full-service furniture shop. Getting the frame solid before adding new fabric ensures the finished piece will last for years.
How does interior design tie into an upholstery project?
An upholsterer with design experience can help you choose fabric colors, patterns, and textures that work with your room rather than just picking something you like in isolation. That context makes a real difference in how cohesive the final result looks.
Can Unique Short Tree help with headboard reupholstery for a bedroom refresh?
Headboards are a very popular reupholstery project because they're visible, relatively straightforward to work with, and can completely change a bedroom's feel. Fabric selection is especially important here since it needs to complement your bedding and wall color.
Is it possible to change the style of a piece, not just the fabric, during reupholstery?
Yes, skilled upholsterers can add details like button tufting, channel stitching, or contrast welt cord to alter a piece's visual style during the reupholstery process. It's worth discussing what you have in mind during the initial estimate.
How do I know if a piece of furniture is worth repairing and reupholstering in Rochester Hills?
If the frame is hardwood and structurally sound, it's almost always worth restoring, especially if the piece has sentimental value or would cost significantly more to replace with comparable quality. A shop that does both repair and reupholstery can give you an honest combined estimate.
What should I bring to my first appointment at an upholstery and design shop?
Photos of the room where the piece will live, fabric swatches or paint chips if you have them, and any specific ideas you've seen online are all helpful. The more context you bring, the more targeted the design advice can be.
