Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring in my own fabric for a reupholstery project?
Yes, many shops will work with customer-supplied fabric. Just confirm yardage requirements ahead of time, since the shop will calculate how much you need based on the size and style of your piece.
How do I know if a piece of furniture is worth reupholstering?
The frame is the most important factor. If the wood frame is solid and the joints are tight, reupholstering almost always makes financial sense compared to buying new. Pieces with sentimental value or quality hardwood frames are especially good candidates.
What types of fabric work best for high-traffic seating?
Performance fabrics with a high rub count, generally 30,000 or above, hold up well on sofas and dining chairs that get daily use. Crypton, Sunbrella, and tightly woven synthetics are popular choices for families with kids or pets.
How long does a typical reupholstery project take?
Most residential projects take two to four weeks from fabric approval to completion. Larger pieces or projects requiring frame repair may take longer, so ask for a timeline estimate when you get your quote.
Do you offer fabric samples I can take home?
Most fabric shops and upholsterers can provide small swatches to take home and view in your own lighting. This is a smart step before committing, since fabric color can shift significantly between showroom and home lighting.
Is reupholstering more expensive than buying new furniture?
For quality pieces, reupholstery often costs less than replacing them with comparable new furniture, especially when you factor in the solid construction of older frames. For inexpensive or mass-market furniture, buying new may be the better value.
