"I recently had Dani come clean my upholstered furniture, carpets and tile and I am beyond impressed with the results! From the initial scheduling his service was top-notch. Dani arrived on time, was incredibly professional, and took great care in his work. He deep-cleaned my sofa, chairs, and carpets, removing tough stains from our pets. The difference was noticeable immediately— If you're looking for high-quality upholstery, carpet and tile cleaning, I highly recommend Dani's services! I will definitely be calling him again."

"I needed mildewed furniture that had been in storage six years properly cleaned with 12% hydrogen peroxide.This included two dressers, a bed, and a night table, inside drawers and as well as out. Jonathan was an excellent communicator. He understood the project, bringing up elements I had not thought of. He came to the site twice before doing the job, once to see the project, a second time to make sure the finish would not be adversely affected by the product. He researched the use of the product on metal handles as well. Each time he was prompt, pleasant, and made intelligent suggestions. He and his assistant Maria did a thorough job. I had been looking for the right person for months, Jonathan and Maria were the right people. So glad I found Jonathan. You will be glad you did too!"

"This was my first time using a cleaning service and I was worried about the cost. I have two large hairy dogs and contacted Maidsity Cleaning Services with this same information. Valeria quoted me a reasonable rate and I hired her. They were very professional and efficient in removing all this dog hair. They also cleaned my house from top to bottom within the initial estimate. I will be now using Maidsity as a regular on-going service, as my fears of price and effectiveness of service have now been put to rest."

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to repair, reupholster, or replace old furniture, consider its age, quality, level of wear, and overall value, including sentimental attachment. In many cases, it is more affordable to reupholster or repair furniture than to replace it, especially for antique, vintage, or discontinued pieces.

Older furniture is often made from durable hardwoods like oak and maple, giving it a longer lifespan than newer furniture, which frequently uses lower-quality materials such as plywood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF). Because of this, repairing or reupholstering a well-made older piece is often a worthwhile investment.

To determine the best course of action from a financial perspective, compare quotes from local furniture repair services with the price of a new, similar piece. Reupholstery may not be cost-effective for furniture that was originally inexpensive (e.g., under $300). For high-quality or sentimental items, however, it is an excellent way to preserve the piece and extend its life. If you're unsure, a furniture reupholstery specialist can help you evaluate the piece and make an informed decision.

The best way to test the quality of a leather couch is to put your hands on it. If the upholstery is soft and warm, that’s a good indication that the quality is higher. It should also smell like traditional leather. If it smells like chemicals, you’re probably dealing with low-grade leather.

The average cost to reupholster a piece of furniture is around $720, with most projects falling in the $380 to $1,150 range. The final price can vary significantly based on several factors. These include the size and complexity of the furniture, the cost of the new fabric (which typically ranges from $50 to $70 per yard), and hourly labor rates (often $40 to $100 per hour). Additional factors that influence the price are the piece's current condition, its age, whether it needs other repairs, the number of pieces being reupholstered, and your geographic location.

To safeguard your furniture and upholstered items, it's best to use plastic wrap or specially-made plastic sofa covers. However, you should avoid wrapping wooden furniture in plastic if you plan on storing it, as plastic can trap moisture and warp the wood, plus it may damage certain finishes. In either case, old blankets or moving blankets make excellent alternatives. For protecting delicate glass table tops and mirrors, bubble wrap is always a reliable choice.

You can make your dining room look more expensive using one or more of several methods. If you're remodeling, you can consider raising the ceiling height, installing an elegant chandelier, or redoing the floor. For smaller renovations, consider changing the paint color to a deep and rich tone, such as burgundy or emerald. You can also swap out the table and chairs to achieve a richer appearance.
