Q: How can I make my dining room look more expensive?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: Can you reupholster over old material?

• <div><p>It is possible to reupholster directly over old material in some cases, and it can save you a bit of money. If you are going to go this route, make sure you use a darker color than you had previously. Otherwise, you might see the old fabric beneath the new material. You should also keep in mind that reupholstering over old material is only possible with certain materials. For example, reupholstering over leather usually isn&rsquo;t possible. You can ask your professional to see if this is an option for your piece.</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: How long does it take to reupholster furniture?

• <div><p>The time required to reupholster furniture depends on the item's size, complexity, and condition. The hands-on work can range from 2-3 hours for a simple dining chair to 10 to 20 hours for a large sofa. The total project timeline with a professional, including fabric sourcing and scheduling, typically ranges from one to three weeks.</p><p>Several factors can affect the timeline. Antique furniture often takes longer due to the delicate care required. If additional repairs are needed, such as sanding or refinishing wood components, the process will also take more time. A DIY reupholstery project will usually take significantly longer than a professional job.</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>

"Dennis is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and offers that personal service others don't. He actually hand delivered his written estimate so that I could ask any questions about it. If you leave a phone message he returns your call within 20 minutes! As we are a historical building in downtown Joliet, IL, respect for our building and furniture was important. Dennis & Allie made sure to protect the wood areas of the furniture when cleaning the upholstery. His pricing was very fair and I would HIGHLY recommend him. Our upholstery looks brand new, is once again soft, and smells great. If you need upholstery cleaning this is the company to contact!"
