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

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.

Yes, you can reupholster antique furniture, and it’s a great way to extend the life of your pieces and keep them looking fresh and new for years to come. In fact, since reupholstering furniture is significantly more affordable than replacing it, reviving antique furniture can be a cost-effective way to keep that family heirloom usable for much longer. It’s usually a good idea to leave antique reupholstering to a professional, as they will have the tools and expertise to ensure the piece isn’t damaged and looks professionally finished.

Regular vacuuming, spot cleaning, and protecting surfaces from sun exposure prevents wear and fading, preserving longevity.

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.

It can be cheaper to reupholster a chair or other piece of furniture than to buy a new one, depending on how much it costs to replace. If the chair or couch originally cost less than $300, then reupholstery may not be the cheapest option. However, if the chair is expensive, vintage, or discontinued, reupholstery can be the more affordable option. This is especially true if the piece of furniture is out-of-production or holds sentimental value.
