Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Furniture reupholstery is the core of what this shop does, covering everything from living room sofas and sectionals to dining chairs and ottomans. The process typically involves stripping old fabric, inspecting and repairing the underlying frame and springs, replacing foam or batting as needed, and then applying new fabric chosen by the customer. They can work with materials ranging from durable everyday upholstery fabrics to higher-end options like velvet, boucle, or performance textiles. Cushion replacement is often part of the job, since foam degrades over time even when the frame and fabric still look fine.

Service Area

Wittich Upholstery serves customers throughout Saint Louis and the surrounding Missouri communities. Residents from nearby neighborhoods and inner-ring suburbs regularly bring pieces in for reupholstery work. If you're within a reasonable drive of the city, it's worth giving them a call at (314) 647-6934 to discuss your project.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my furniture is worth reupholstering?
The key factor is the frame. If it's solid hardwood and still structurally sound, reupholstery almost always makes financial and sentimental sense. Cheap particleboard frames are usually not worth the investment, but a quality older sofa or armchair often is.
Can I bring my own fabric to the shop?
Many upholstery shops accept customer-supplied fabric, but you'll want to confirm this when you call. Keep in mind that shops typically won't warranty workmanship issues that result from fabric the customer provided, particularly if it turns out to be unsuitable for upholstery use.
How long does furniture reupholstery take in Saint Louis?
Most standard pieces take one to three weeks from drop-off to pickup, though larger or more complex items can take longer. It depends on the shop's current backlog and how much frame repair is needed alongside the fabric work.
What types of furniture can be reupholstered?
Sofas, sectionals, armchairs, recliners, dining chairs, ottomans, headboards, and even benches are all common candidates. If it has fabric and a frame, there's a good chance it can be reupholstered, though the shop will assess each piece individually.
How much does furniture reupholstery cost in Missouri?
Prices vary widely based on the size of the piece, the fabric chosen, and how much structural repair is needed. A dining chair might run $100 to $250, while a full sofa can range from $800 to over $2,000. Getting an in-person estimate is the most reliable way to know what to expect.
Do I need to remove the legs or disassemble my furniture before bringing it in?
Generally, no. Bring the piece as-is and let the shop handle any disassembly needed for the work. If you're transporting a large sofa, removing the legs can make it easier to fit in a vehicle, but it's not required.
