Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery here covers the full scope of the trade, including fabric stripping, foam and batting replacement, spring retying, and new fabric application on sofas, chairs, ottomans, and dining pieces. The custom draperies side of the business involves measuring, fabricating, and installing window treatments using a wide range of fabrics, lining options, and heading styles. Having both services available in one place means the fabric choices can be coordinated across upholstered furniture and window treatments in the same room. This is particularly useful for designers and homeowners doing larger interior projects.

Service Area

Wilson's serves Cleveland and its surrounding neighborhoods, including the eastern suburbs and communities throughout Cuyahoga County. Interior designers and homeowners from across the greater Cleveland metro area regularly work with the shop on residential and commercial projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you match new drapery fabric to furniture I'm having reupholstered?
Coordinating fabrics across draperies and upholstery is one of the strengths of a shop that handles both services. You can work through fabric samples together so the finished room has a cohesive look rather than pieces that feel disconnected.
How do I choose the right fabric weight for upholstery versus draperies?
Upholstery fabrics need to be durable enough to withstand friction and daily use, so heavier, tighter weaves are typically preferred. Drapery fabrics have different requirements, prioritizing drape, light filtering, and appearance, so the same bolt of fabric rarely works well for both purposes.
Do you work with interior designers on commercial projects in Cleveland?
Shops offering both drapery and upholstery services are a natural fit for interior designers working on hotels, offices, or multi-unit residential projects. It's worth discussing project scope and timeline upfront to make sure the shop can accommodate commercial volumes.
How long do custom draperies typically take to fabricate and install?
Most custom drapery projects take two to four weeks from final measurements to installation, depending on the complexity and the fabric sourcing timeline. Rush projects may be possible in some cases, though it's best to ask early.
Can antique furniture be reupholstered without damaging its value?
Skilled upholsterers know how to preserve original frames and hardware while replacing worn fabric and padding. Using period-appropriate materials and techniques is key, especially for pieces with collector or sentimental value.
What should I bring to my first consultation?
Photos of the space, a fabric swatch or paint chip if you're working within an existing color scheme, and measurements of the window or furniture piece are all helpful. The more context you can provide, the more targeted the fabric recommendations will be.
