"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

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.

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

It is often worthwhile to refinish or restore furniture, especially for high-quality, older, antique, or sentimental pieces. Older furniture tends to have better durability than modern, mass-produced items, and refinishing can cost about one-third of the price of replacement. To determine if it's cost-effective, compare quotes from local refinishing services with the price of a new, similar piece. Refinishing can refresh a piece's look and extend its lifespan. However, it may not be worth it for newer furniture made of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) or plywood, or for items with major structural damage. A professional can help you assess the piece and decide on the best course of action.

If your usually super soft couch feels crusty and rough after cleaning, it could be that you haven’t removed the cleaning product properly, you used too much, or you applied the wrong type. Always check the couch tags to select the right cleaning product, read application instructions carefully, and test on an inconspicuous corner. For fabrics such as microfiber, you can soften and fluff crusty fibers using a soft-bristled brush.

Part of the beauty of academia decor is that most textures and materials will feel right at home, provided they’re dark. Some common textures include natural wood, dark metals like iron, velvet, and leather. Incorporating these into your dark academia decor will make them look right at home. Glass is another option in some cases, so fill in gaps in your decor with small glass jars, or really lean on the gothic roots of dark academia with stained glass.
