"We were considering buying a new couch after our armless chair (part of a sectional) had some wear spots and small tears in the seating area. We decided to try reupholstery after speaking with Eddie and listening to his suggestions. He picked up the chair on Wednesday and had it back here on Friday. It looked brand new. This man is an Upholstery Genius. If you’re considering upholstering or reupholstering, speak with Eddie before you do anything else. In addition, his price is very reasonable and his work is excellent. We just saved over $4k over the price of a new couch. A huge bonus for us!"

"I hired Bob to fix an exterior door frame that had some rot in it. He was friendly, punctual, and honest about what I did and didn't need done. He came back himself to do the job within a week or so and also explained to me how to maintain the parts that didn't need his help right now. I would hire him again."

"The communication was responsive and when misunderstanding arose on my part, the resolution was quick and satisfactory for everyone. The work was exceptional. Serious equipment. Attentiveness. Rudy was on time and polite the entire time. I have already scheduled to have my rugs cleaned next month and it was only today that I had my recliner and couch done. I am fully pleased with the service, start to finish."

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

Ongoing maintenance of your leather furniture is the only way to prevent it from peeling and cracking. Real leather will peel and crack as it dries out. Leather conditioners are a great way to protect your leather furniture from drying out, and you’ll need to apply it about twice each year. It’s also a good idea to keep abrasive materials away from your leather to prevent cracking and peeling, including belt buckles, shoes, and multi-surface cleaners, especially those that contain alcohol.

Doing your own upholstery work is possible, but it’s typically a better idea to leave the work to professionals. Without experience and the proper tools, it’s difficult to get a professionally finished appearance for your furniture, and many DIYers end up spending money on tools and materials only to hire a professional when they can’t get the fabric to look right. If you have reupholstery experience, feel free to give it a shot. However, if you’re not confident in your skill level or you’re working with antiques, it’s worth the money to hire a pro.

When deciding whether to repair, reupholster, or replace old furniture, consider its age, quality, level of wear, and overall value, including sentimental attachment. In many cases, it is more affordable to reupholster or repair furniture than to replace it, especially for antique, vintage, or discontinued pieces.

Older furniture is often made from durable hardwoods like oak and maple, giving it a longer lifespan than newer furniture, which frequently uses lower-quality materials such as plywood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF). Because of this, repairing or reupholstering a well-made older piece is often a worthwhile investment.

To determine the best course of action from a financial perspective, compare quotes from local furniture repair services with the price of a new, similar piece. Reupholstery may not be cost-effective for furniture that was originally inexpensive (e.g., under $300). For high-quality or sentimental items, however, it is an excellent way to preserve the piece and extend its life. If you're unsure, a furniture reupholstery specialist can help you evaluate the piece and make an informed decision.

Upholstering allows personalization, extends furniture life, conserves resources, refreshes decor, and often costs less than buying new pieces.

If your usually super soft couch feels crusty and rough after cleaning, it could be that you haven’t removed the cleaning product properly, you used too much, or you applied the wrong type. Always check the couch tags to select the right cleaning product, read application instructions carefully, and test on an inconspicuous corner. For fabrics such as microfiber, you can soften and fluff crusty fibers using a soft-bristled brush.
