"One of the worst experiences with a company I’ve ever had. Next to no communication with management when it wasn’t about collecting money for the job. Of which they claimed I owed $600 more than what I made a 50% down payment on initially due to measurement errors they never provided me proof for, then conveniently “forgave” as I paid the second half once the job was “completed”. Only a few weeks later we have pieces coming off in our kitchen and bathroom (pictured below) and this is after multiple visits they scheduled as “repairs”. In actuality we were left with unfinished flooring downstairs and unfinished carpet upstairs not even allowing us to use our upstairs bathroom through Christmas while we had family visiting. To be clear, I think this is primarily a management issue and they don’t deserve business if they’re going to charge thousands and thousands of dollars to facilitate flooring being put in slow, sloppy, while simultaneously attempting to seemingly collect extra money only to let it go once they realize the job was done horribly. Instead of calling them back to have a 3rd “repair” for a job done less than a month ago, I’d rather let anyone know who reads this that your money is almost certainly going to be better spent somewhere else."

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

You should consider the time needed to clean and prepare your bedroom set for transit. A few days before moving, vacuum, dust, and clean your furniture with a mild cleaning solution. Depending on the movers and the services you pick, you might need to pre-pack the mattress and box spring in boxes designed for beds and disassemble some furniture by removing doors and hardware. Finally, don’t forget to take plenty of pictures documenting the pre-move condition in case you need to file a claim.

The time to reupholster a couch often ranges from one to three weeks, depending on the upholsterer's workload, fabric availability, and the complexity of your couch. This breaks down between 10 and 20 hours if you hire a professional, or 20 to 40 hours if you DIY. Custom features or repairs may extend the timeline.

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.

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

Yes, you can reupholster antique furniture, and it’s a great way to extend the life of your pieces and keep them looking fresh and new for years to come. In fact, since reupholstering furniture is significantly more affordable than replacing it, reviving antique furniture can be a cost-effective way to keep that family heirloom usable for much longer. It’s usually a good idea to leave antique reupholstering to a professional, as they will have the tools and expertise to ensure the piece isn’t damaged and looks professionally finished.
