"Could not have been more pleased with the job that Star Upholstery did re-upholstering our dining room chairs. From the selection of the fabric to the pick-up and delivery everything was well done. The pricing was reasonable, and the work quality was excellent. Arturo is a pleasure to deal with and so is everybody (Sandra and Lionel) with Star Upholstery. Star Upholstery will be our choice for future needs."

"Ace is everything you need in carpet cleaning, wood floors, duct cleaning, curtains, carpeted stairs, upholstered and leather furniture, tile & grout AND MORE! Matt has taken care of us many times after we moved into our home years ago, and the last two years Travis has transformed my mom's house after completing each of the services I mentioned above. They have become like family to us and we will continue to have them come back over and over again! Thank you Travis and Matt with Ace!"

"I recently hired Bill and his associate to come out and clean my carpets because my landlord required professional carpet cleaning. Bill was fantastic. He was very personable and efficient. He also had another gentleman with him (I do not remember his name), and he was also fantastic. They both completed all four of my rooms in about an hour. Very reasonable pricing, as well. Highly recommend this company!!"

I am a general diesel mechanic by trade but I grew up poor and needing to fix everything I could. I can fix most things, but when it comes to code and what not I need the customer to understand this and make there decisions. If I can understand how it works, I can do it.

Upholstering questions, answered by experts

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.

It is generally worth repairing leather furniture rather than replacing it, as it is typically more affordable and the material tends to retain its value. A typical repair averages around $250, which is significantly less than the thousands of dollars a replacement could cost. Even a full reupholstering, which can cost up to $4,000, may still be more economical than buying new. With proper care, repaired leather furniture can last for many years, making the investment worthwhile. However, if the underlying structure or frame of the furniture is damaged or malfunctioning, replacement might be a better option. The quality of the leather and the furniture piece are also important factors. For a definitive answer, it is best to consult a leather repair professional to assess your specific situation.

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.

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.

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.
