"These are the most unethical and unprofessional losers that I've ever had the misfortune to hire. I was told $600 (verbally) for the total job and it ended up being a lot more. The two individuals who delivered the bench made it clear they didn't want to hear what I had to say about being lied to. Just sign the form and accept that I got screwed. Avoid these losers at all costs. They are unethical and have no problem lying. I wish I could give them less than one star. One star is too high for this absolutely dishonest crew who didn't care what I had to say. They just wanted to leave and screw someone else over."

Hi, I’m David Pastran, Owner of River City Upholstery LLC in Chester, VA. Upholstery is a longstanding family tradition and personal dream of mine. My family owned an upholstery business in El Salvador for 20 years before the breakout of the Civil War forced us to relocate in 1980. Together, we endured a treacherous trip across Mexico into to the United States under refugee status. There, I was raised in Long Island, NY until I was 12, before we moved to Virginia. At 20, I joined the United States Marine Corps as a food subsistence specialist and proudly served my country for eight years. Doing so allowed me the opportunity to travel around the world and get to know many diverse people and cultures. Today, I am a proud father of two boys, a business owner, and a full-time student John Tyler Community College. The key to my happiness comes from serving others, resulting in my passion for helping the community. Starting a business cannot simply be about money; its foundation is strongest when it is based on purpose and meaning. My goal is to launch an apprenticeship-based upholstery program aimed at high school students with ADD/ADHD, and adults returning from addiction rehabilitation or prison, in developing a practical new skill set.

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.

On average, the cost to reupholster furniture is about $720 per piece. However the price range to upholster a piece of furniture varies widely from about $380 to $1,150 or more, depending on the material type and availability, repairs needed, and the complexity of the project. Fabric costs typically range from $50 to $70 per yard while the cost of labor runs from $40 to $100 per hour.

In most cases, it is more affordable to reupholster furniture than it is to replace it, but it depends on the quality and age of the furniture you’re considering getting reupholstered. Antique pieces are always worth reupholstering, as it’s the only way to preserve the piece and extend its life. Newer pieces of furniture are more often made using lower-quality materials like medium-density fiberboard or plywood that don’t have the same lifespan as things like hardwood. For newer pieces, your furniture reupholstery specialist should be able to help you determine the best course of action.

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, many custom builders offer finishing and upholstery options tailored to your style.
