As a professional upholsterer for nearly 20 years, I have restored furniture of every style and from every era, including early 19th century, traditional, mid-century modern, Danish modern, and more. I bring a craftsman's eye and a fine attention to detail to every piece of furniture I work on. I cut no corners--I use the utmost care to restore your cherished furniture so it will bring you enjoyment for years to come. People appreciate the quality of my work, my personal, attentive service, and my fair prices. I have many satisfied customers--many of whom return to me with new projects. I will gladly provide references. In 2019, I relocated to Philmont, New York from Provincetown, Massachusetts, where I ran a successful business for five years. Prior to that, I had a studio in northern Vermont. Before going out on my own I served as an apprentice for five years and an upholstery manager at Pompanoosuc Mills in Thetford, Vermont. I am delighted to now live in beautiful Columbia County. I look forward to meeting the upholstery needs of people here and throughout the mid-Hudson Valley.

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

Pros cover many fixes, from upholstery renewals to joint reinforcement.

The average time it takes to reupholster a piece of furniture is around eight hours, but it varies significantly based on the piece. A professional can usually reupholster smaller furniture units like dining chairs or small ottomans in two to three hours, while an entire sofa might take several days or up to a week. Antique furniture tends to take longer to reupholster because greater care needs to be taken to preserve the piece. Your timeline might be a bit longer if you need other repairs done, like sanding and refinishing wood components.

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.

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.

Reupholstering is often worthwhile for high-quality, antique, or sentimental couches, especially if the frame is sturdy. It can cost less than buying a comparable new piece and allows for customization, but may not be cost-effective for low-end furniture.
