Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery means stripping a piece down to its frame, replacing the foam or batting, and applying new fabric or leather. White's handles this process for sofas, chairs, dining seats, ottomans, and similar pieces. Customers typically choose from a selection of fabrics, and a skilled upholsterer will help match the material to how the piece gets used, whether that's a high-traffic family sofa or a formal accent chair. The process restores both the look and the comfort of furniture that still has good bones but worn-out surfaces.

Service Area

White's Upholstery Shop serves Charlotte and the surrounding Mecklenburg County communities. Customers from nearby areas like Mint Hill, Pineville, and Matthews regularly make the trip into the city for quality upholstery work that's hard to find closer to home.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to reupholster a sofa in Charlotte?
Sofa reupholstery in the Charlotte area typically runs anywhere from $600 to $2,000 or more, depending on the size, fabric choice, and condition of the frame and cushions. Getting a direct quote based on your specific piece is the best way to get an accurate number.
Can I bring my own fabric to the shop?
Many upholstery shops will work with customer-supplied fabric, but it's smart to call ahead and confirm. You'll want to make sure you have enough yardage since the upholsterer will calculate what's needed based on the piece.
Is it worth reupholstering old furniture instead of buying new?
It often is, especially if the frame is solid hardwood or the piece has sentimental value. Older furniture is frequently built better than comparable new pieces at the same price point, and reupholstering lets you get exactly the fabric you want.
How long does furniture reupholstery take?
A typical chair might be done in a week or two, while a large sofa could take two to four weeks depending on the shop's workload and the complexity of the piece. Fabric availability can also affect the timeline if you're ordering a specialty material.
Do you replace foam cushions as part of reupholstery?
Yes, cushion replacement is usually part of the process when the existing foam has compressed or deteriorated. Different foam densities are available depending on how firm or soft you want the finished cushions to feel.
Can you match the original style of a vintage piece?
Experienced upholsterers can often replicate period details like button tufting, nail head trim, or welt cord to keep the piece looking true to its original design. Bring photos of the original style if you want to stay close to what it looked like.
