The Process: How We Do It

1. Consultation: We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your vision and needs. During this stage, we’ll assess the condition of your furniture, discuss fabric options, and provide an estimate.
2. Frame Inspection and Repair: The foundation of any furniture piece is its frame. We thoroughly inspect the frame for any damage or weakness and provide repairs as needed. This ensures your reupholstered piece is as sturdy as the day it was made.
3. Spring and Cushion Work: We examine and repair or replace the springs and cushions. For high-end pieces, we can include an 8-way hand-tied spring system, which offers unparalleled comfort and longevity.
4. Fabric Selection: Choose from a vast selection of fabrics, from luxurious velvets and durable leathers to eco-friendly and stain-resistant materials. We source our fabrics from our own lines and top manufacturers to ensure the highest quality and variety. We will work with you to not just choose the fabric for the piece that you are considering but keeping in mind the aesthetics of the space that this piece will reside in. We look to the future when you will, as time and budgets allow, complete an entire space.
5. Precision Cutting and Sewing: Our craftsmen carefully cut and sew the selected fabric, ensuring a perfect fit. We pay attention to every detail, from pattern alignment to seam strength, ensuring your furniture looks flawless.
6. Final Assembly and Inspection: After reupholstering, we meticulously reassemble your furniture and conduct a thorough quality check. We ensure every element meets our exacting standards before delivering the piece back to you.

Pick-Up and Delivery Services

Pick-Up: For added convenience, we offer a pick-up service for your furniture. Our team will carefully transport your pieces from your home to our workshop, ensuring they arrive safely and securely. This service is available for a fee, depending on your location and the size of the items.

Delivery: Once your furniture has been expertly reupholstered, we provide a delivery service to bring your pieces back to your home. Our team will place the furniture exactly where you want it, ensuring it fits perfectly in your space. As with our pick-up service, delivery is available for a fee.

Why Re-Upholster? The Value of Quality Furniture

In today’s market, it’s easy to be tempted by the convenience and low prices of online furniture retailers. However, many of these pieces are mass-produced with lower-quality materials, designed to be replaced within a few years. In contrast, older furniture is often built like a tank, made with solid wood frames, high-quality springs, and durable cushioning. Here’s why re-upholstering these pieces is worth the investment:

• Superior Craftsmanship: Older furniture was built to last. The solid wood frames, hand-tied springs, and attention to detail are qualities rarely found in today’s disposable furniture. Reupholstering preserves these characteristics, ensuring your piece continues to offer comfort and durability for years to come.
• Customization: When you reupholster a piece of furniture, you have complete control over its look and feel. You can choose fabrics, colors, and finishes that perfectly match your decor, creating a unique piece that reflects your personal style.
• Sustainability: Reupholstering is an eco-friendly choice. Instead of sending your old furniture to the landfill, you’re giving it a new life. This reduces waste and minimizes the environmental impact of producing new furniture.
• Cost-Effective: While reupholstering is an investment, it can be more cost-effective than repeatedly purchasing lower-quality furniture. Plus, you’re investing in a piece that can be passed down to future generations, becoming a family heirloom.
• Sentimental Value: Many older pieces of furniture hold sentimental value, having been passed down through generations. Reupholstering allows you to preserve the memories associated with these pieces while updating them to suit your current needs.
