With over 35 years experience, I was taught by my father and two brothers in England. Always open 24- 7. Recycle - Renew - Recover. Craftmanship at it's best! Reupholstery of couches chairs dinning chairs boats campers Antiques a speciality & contract work. Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/PaulsChairs/

"Quality is superb! Price reasonable! Last fall (2017) I had 2 large cushions with pleating reupholstered. The cushions went to a well made chair of the 50s era. The cushions look like they belong to the chair! I was so pleased with quality and workmanship that I returned this spring (2018) with 12 chair cushions that go to a 50s era Rod Iron Dining Room Set. Again! Very pleased with the outcome. Paul is what grew this country! He works from his home, he does quality work, gives CUSTOMER SERVICE.....all the things that a large company doesn't understand! I would recommend him to anyone that is interested in having the job done RIGHT the First Time! (Anyone over 50 understands that phrase!!!) Wish I had pictures to attach, but cushions are now out of state. Will provide pictures in a couple weeks!"

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

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.

Upholstery reduces waste sent to landfills, limits resource consumption, and supports sustainable living practices, provided fabrics meet standards.

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.

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

Paying to reupholster a piece of furniture means you want to hire the right upholstery service, especially for a piece that’s expensive or carries a lot of sentimental value. In your search for the right upholstery company, be sure to:

  • Ask around to see if friends or family know of any upholsterers

  • Find reviews of the company or individual

  • Look at the photo gallery of their work to see if they work on furniture like yours and if you like their work

  • Check qualifications and references

  • Ask the upholstery service if they work on furniture like yours, what their schedule looks like, how they handle payments, and how long the job will take
