I am the sole proprietor of Everafter Upholstery. My terms are half down, half due upon completion and satisfaction. I accept cash or check.

"The first piece I had done was the loveseat. Sarah helped me pick out the fabric and fabric that would match my future pieces, and even transported the loveseat both before and after the work was done. Once the fabric was ordered and arrived, Sarah discovered the fabric was going to be too short to cover a one piece cushion, but I specifically did NOT want two cushions on the loveseat; Sarah came up with a very clever solution to increase the length of the fabric, not show any seams and create a one cushion solution. I have been so impressed! After that piece I have had three more chairs and many footstools done. Whenever I need anything re-upholstered, I call Everafter Upholstery! Great work, great company, great pricing."

I am the business owner, who upholsters the furniture, sews the projects, does the estimates, the pick ups and deliveries. I even have to do the cleaning up! I do some of the design work, the rest is done by the designers that hire me to complete their projects. I have a B.S. design degree from the University of Mn and and Upholstery degree for the Minneapolis Technical College.

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

Paper moving pads, also called furniture wrapping paper or paper moving blankets, are sheets of recycled paper used to protect various items during moving. Similar to traditional moving blankets, paper pads are also reusable, making them a sustainable and cost-effective option for protecting your belongings during the moving process. Although they’re recycled, they still provide excellent protection against dust, dirt, and scratches.

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’t possible. You can ask your professional to see if this is an option for your piece.

When deciding whether to reupholster, repair, or replace old furniture, consider its age, level of wear and tear, and overall value. It’s usually better to repair old furniture because older pieces tend to be made out of hardwood, like oak and maple, whereas newer furniture is more often made out of plywood, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), and other less durable materials. When determining whether it’s worth the price to repair a furniture item, calculate the price of buying a new, similar piece and compare that to quotes from local furniture repair services.

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.

In most cases, it is more affordable to reupholster furniture than it is to replace it, but it depends on the quality and age of the furniture you’re considering getting reupholstered. Antique pieces are always worth reupholstering, as it’s the only way to preserve the piece and extend its life. Newer pieces of furniture are more often made using lower-quality materials like medium-density fiberboard or plywood that don’t have the same lifespan as things like hardwood. For newer pieces, your furniture reupholstery specialist should be able to help you determine the best course of action.
