"We were thrilled with the final result. Dave repaired a small cherry table that was a family heirloom that I had just inherited. It had been made by hand and nothing was square. He had to disassemble the table, re-glue the loose legs, and then reassemble the table. He then polished the wood with beeswax. The top of the coffee table was badly scratched and water stained. He took it entirely apart, sanded down the pieces, stained the pieces in a darker color, and then reassembled the table and also polished it with beeswax. The stain he chose really highlighted the grain in the wood. We are thrilled with the final products. We highly recommend Dave to anyone who is looking for someone to refinish wood furniture."

"Jeff was very easy to talk to, and did a fantastic job. Our house had a lot of mold on it and he removed all of it. The deck looks like it's a new deck rather than 11 years old. The same with our front porch. He cleaned our sidewalk and it looks great too. Overall, I was thrilled with the work Jeff did."

"Scott was very professional & knowledgeable about the fabrics. I have 2 dogs & they had scratched up a leather chair; so I wanted it reupholstered. Scott helped me pick out a durable fabric. He also picked up & delivered the chair when done. Scott had material left over & made a small "cover" to help protect the chair from the dogs. He is even so kind-hearted that he donated the fabric he took off, to a local dog shelter, so they can reuse it for whatever they need. Scott did a fantastic job!"

"They were quick and they were prompt while being able to do a good job. The price wasn't too much, i liked them so much i in fact hired them again and will probably do so again. I felt that they were very knowledgeable and felt confident about my choice. They handle the project in a very professional manner and would reccomend them to everyone. And trust me, if i wasnt happy with the work they provided, i would be writing the opposite type of review! Thank you so much Sequoia Studios!"

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

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.

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 time required to reupholster furniture depends on the item's size, complexity, and condition. The hands-on work can range from 2-3 hours for a simple dining chair to 10 to 20 hours for a large sofa. The total project timeline with a professional, including fabric sourcing and scheduling, typically ranges from one to three weeks.

Several factors can affect the timeline. Antique furniture often takes longer due to the delicate care required. If additional repairs are needed, such as sanding or refinishing wood components, the process will also take more time. A DIY reupholstery project will usually take significantly longer than a professional job.

When hiring an upholsterer, look for a pro with experience in your chair type, positive reviews, and a portfolio of completed projects. Ask about their process, timeline, warranty, and whether they are insured. Getting multiple quotes from reupholsterers in your area and checking their references can help ensure quality and fair pricing.

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
