"Vincent was incredibly responsive, patient, professional and just lovely to work with. He responded immediately to my request for service and was willing to do the job the very next day. I had to wait an additional day due to MY schedule. He was punctual, as neat as one could expect, explained the entire process, including the order in which the jobs would be completed, how long the carpets/rug would take to dry and then some! His price was very reasonable. I will definitely hire him again. The next day, I realized I should have had him clean some upholstered furniture pieces while he was here, but I will call him another time for that service."

"This project consisted of custom work done to perfection. I could not be more thrilled with the attention to every detail provided during each phase of the project which included the installation of a magnificent bathroom, the complete kitchen upgrade including the construction of an amazing bench, classic China cabinet, beautiful backsplash and magnificent crown mounding. Also included was the construction and installation of exquisite recessed paneling, moulding and custom shutters in the stairway, living room and dining room. I found an honest, reliable and clean contractor who I would not hesitate to recommend to my family and freinds."

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

To safeguard your furniture and upholstered items, it's best to use plastic wrap or specially-made plastic sofa covers. However, you should avoid wrapping wooden furniture in plastic if you plan on storing it, as plastic can trap moisture and warp the wood, plus it may damage certain finishes. In either case, old blankets or moving blankets make excellent alternatives. For protecting delicate glass table tops and mirrors, bubble wrap is always a reliable choice.

When deciding whether to repair, reupholster, or replace old furniture, consider its age, quality, level of wear, and overall value, including sentimental attachment. In many cases, it is more affordable to reupholster or repair furniture than to replace it, especially for antique, vintage, or discontinued pieces.

Older furniture is often made from durable hardwoods like oak and maple, giving it a longer lifespan than newer furniture, which frequently uses lower-quality materials such as plywood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF). Because of this, repairing or reupholstering a well-made older piece is often a worthwhile investment.

To determine the best course of action from a financial perspective, compare quotes from local furniture repair services with the price of a new, similar piece. Reupholstery may not be cost-effective for furniture that was originally inexpensive (e.g., under $300). For high-quality or sentimental items, however, it is an excellent way to preserve the piece and extend its life. If you're unsure, a furniture reupholstery specialist can help you evaluate the piece and make an informed decision.

You should consider the time needed to clean and prepare your bedroom set for transit. A few days before moving, vacuum, dust, and clean your furniture with a mild cleaning solution. Depending on the movers and the services you pick, you might need to pre-pack the mattress and box spring in boxes designed for beds and disassemble some furniture by removing doors and hardware. Finally, don’t forget to take plenty of pictures documenting the pre-move condition in case you need to file a claim.

Consider durability, color, texture, room use, and personal style when selecting fabric. Fabrics like linen, cotton, or microfiber offer versatility and strength.

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.
