"We needed our 25 year old sofabed reupholstered, and Parker Upholstery did a wonderful job! We went to their store to pick out fabric, they told us that they could get to it in about six weeks. When the time came, they called to schedule a pickup, came to our house to get the sofa, had it for about a week and a half, and delivered us back a sofa that was better than new. Worth every penny, I'd use them again in a heartbeat."

"Coverage on gouged bedroom dresser was good. Build-up on the other small table was good, color good, just a little uneven. Had requested a small chest to be finished but cost was prohibitive so I left it undone."

"The final project came out great. The upholstery looked beautiful but the chairs came back all scratched. Like during transport they were not careful. That is not good customer service. They need to treat the merchandise with more care. It also took a long time but besides that it was fine. Thank you."

"Excellent service. They went above and beyond cleaning my carpets, easy chair and Roman shade. Helped with moving furniture and boxes out of way since we are elderly and could not do the heavy lifting. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company."

"Nancy responded IMMEDIATELY upon seeing my post. A face-to face meeting followed shortly afterward, where she arrived with a grocery cart filled with fabric samples !! There was SO much to choose from! Once the fabric was selected, the loveseat was collected promptly and within little more than a week, returned to me—like new! Very nice attention to all the detail associated with upholstering."

FAQs for upholstering projects in Malibu, CA

As with any project, weighing the pros and cons of upholstery can help determine if that is the right choice for you. The ultimate question is whether it’s worth reupholstering instead of buying new furniture. Here are a few of the benefits and disadvantages of reupholstering a piece of furniture.

Pros:

  • Preserving a family heirloom

  • Maintaining high-quality furniture in good condition

  • Reinventing an old piece of furniture

  • Keeping a piece of furniture from going to a landfill

Cons:

  • Spending (possibly) more than to buy a new piece of furniture

  • Finding out the frame is beyond repair

  • Waiting for the reupholstery work to be done

It can be cheaper to reupholster a chair or other piece of furniture than to buy a new one, depending on how much it costs to replace. If the chair or couch originally cost less than $300, then reupholstery may not be the cheapest option. However, if the chair is expensive, vintage, or discontinued, reupholstery can be the more affordable option. This is especially true if the piece of furniture is out-of-production or holds sentimental value.

Paying to reupholster a piece of furniture means you want to hire the right upholstery service, especially for a piece that’s expensive or carries a lot of sentimental value. In your search for the right upholstery company, be sure to:

  • Ask around to see if friends or family know of any upholsterers

  • Find reviews of the company or individual

  • Look at the photo gallery of their work to see if they work on furniture like yours and if you like their work

  • Check qualifications and references

  • Ask the upholstery service if they work on furniture like yours, what their schedule looks like, how they handle payments, and how long the job will take

On average, the cost to reupholster furniture is about $720 per piece. However the price range to upholster a piece of furniture varies widely from about $380 to $1,150 or more, depending on the material type and availability, repairs needed, and the complexity of the project. Fabric costs typically range from $50 to $70 per yard while the cost of labor runs from $40 to $100 per hour.
