"I love my re-upholstered couch. They were prompt in calling me and kept their word regarding pick-up and delivery. And their referral regarding the fabric store saved me some good money. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."

"Our 4 dining chairs look beautiful, the workmanship is impeccable, & it was done in the time promised, way faster than I thought possible. I also like supporting small businesses that are local, especially when the price quoted is reasonable. This fits the bill on all counts; I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you, Loreto, for a job well done."

"Fixed a hole in my ceiling after an emergency plumbing repair. Tim was awesome. Respectful and great attention to detail. You can't tell there was ever a repair there (but same ceiling has old repairs that show). On time, great price, couldn't have asked for any better."

Upholstering FAQs, answered by experts

Reupholstering an old or antique chair can be worthwhile if the frame is still sturdy and the piece has sentimental or monetary value. Reupholstery often costs less than buying a high-quality new chair, and you can customize the look. However, extensive repairs or rare fabrics may increase the total cost.

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.

The average cost to reupholster a piece of furniture is around $720, with most projects falling in the $380 to $1,150 range. The final price can vary significantly based on several factors. These include the size and complexity of the furniture, the cost of the new fabric (which typically ranges from $50 to $70 per yard), and hourly labor rates (often $40 to $100 per hour). Additional factors that influence the price are the piece's current condition, its age, whether it needs other repairs, the number of pieces being reupholstered, and your geographic location.

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.

Interior and exterior door openings are typically 80 inches high, with openings 29¼ inches wide for interior doors and 35 inches wide for exterior doors. If your couch is smaller than these measurements, it should fit through the door frame.
