We pick up your furniture and complete all work in our local workroom. Great care is taken to ensure that fabrics are pattern matched including skirts, cushions and back panels. From start to finish, each piece we re-upholster, from a small footstool to a sprawling sectional, is measured with precision, sewn with skill and delivered with pride.

Upholstery Preparation:

First, we must remove all the old fabric from the furniture. This allows us to examine the framework. At this point we analyze:

  • springs,
  • joints in the frame,
  • and padding.

If repairs are needed, we take care of them right away. Re-gluing the joints in the frame are done with clamps, staples and high quality glues.

Springs are retied using the old fashioned "8-way" hand tying. This method is the highest quality and most durable repair for the springs.

The padding is evaluated to determine if new foam is needed. In some cases it is just of matter of steaming out the old foam and bringing it back to it's original quality. If the foam does not bounce back, we replace it, using the highest quality foam. We always wrap all cushions with high quality polyester fiber for added cushion and style.

Customizing:

If the furniture is being customized, we do this after the prep work has been completed. Restyling comes in many variables. We can:

  • restyle the frame
  • customize the upholstery
  • restyle the design of the furniture

We have changed sofa's into loveseat's, chair's into chair and a half's or loungers, and many more. If you are changing your tailored look, we can change arm styles, skirt styles, pillow styles, and more.

We work directly with you to determine the restyling you desire.

Reupholstering:

With over 51 years of craftsmanship, we take great pride in adding new fabric back onto your furniture. All seams are carefully tailored, all patterns in the fabric are lined up with the backs, seats and decks. This creates a beautiful, designer look to your furniture. When we are done, you are left with a "new" piece of furniture. We guarantee all our work to assure you are always satisfied with your newly reupholstered furniture.
