Q: How long does it take to reupholster furniture?

• <div><p>The average time it takes to reupholster a piece of furniture is around <b>eight hours</b>, but it varies significantly based on the piece. A professional can usually reupholster smaller furniture units like dining chairs or small ottomans in two to three hours, while an entire sofa might take several days or up to a week. Antique furniture tends to take longer to reupholster because greater care needs to be taken to preserve the piece. Your timeline might be a bit longer if you need other repairs done, like sanding and refinishing wood components.</p></div>

Q: What types of furniture repairs do professionals handle?

• <div><p>Pros cover many fixes, from upholstery renewals to joint reinforcement.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to buy new furniture or reupholster?

• <div><p>It <i>can</i> 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, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-reupholstery.htm">reupholstery</a> can be the more affordable option. This is especially true if the piece of furniture is out-of-production or holds sentimental value.</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>

Zach and Mark were terrific. They arrived on time and got straight to work. The paint job was excellent, and I am very picky. I especially appreciated how neat and clean they left my home afterwards. All of the furniture was back where it belonged and Zach even vacuumed.

"Excellent service and knowledge for the job. Was somewhat suprised by the much higher than expected price, however, the work was well done and service was exceptional. I requested in original email for a price before beginning work, which I did not receive, Once the work was done, I paid the full price and appreciate the service. I would use them again but only if priced before work."
