Is furniture restoration worth it?

• <div><p>Not always—heavily worn or broken furniture often isn’t worth repairing or refinishing (if it’s even possible). While some damage can be repaired and some of the visual appeal restored, major flaws, such as structural issues, can’t be fixed as easily. If you still want a cost-saving furniture refinishing project rather than purchasing all new, consider shopping for similar secondhand pieces at thrift stores, garage sales, and estate sales.</p></div>

Q: How long does the upholstery process typically take?

• <div><p>The process usually takes 1-2 weeks, and it is highly influenced by the materials, complexity of the project, and any customization desired.</p></div>

Q: How is custom-made furniture professionally crafted?

• <div><p>Craftsmanship begins with detailed design followed by skilled artisans shaping high-quality materials into the desired furniture, ensuring durability and uniqueness.</p></div>

Q: What furniture won't fade from the sun?

• <div><p>Furniture made from materials resistant to sun fading includes metals like aluminum, stainless steel, and wrought iron, as well as certain synthetic materials like polyethylene (commonly used in outdoor wicker furniture) and resin-based products. Glass tables and accents are also sun resistant. These materials inherently withstand UV rays and are less prone to fading or discoloration. Furniture with UV-resistant coatings or finishes, such as powder-coated metal or UV-protected plastics, offers enhanced protection against sun-induced fading. </p></div>

Q: What costs are involved in furniture upholstery services?

• <div><p>Costs depend on fabric choice, furniture size, cushioning, and labor. For significant projects, expect estimates between $350 and $1,200.</p></div>
