About Furniture Reupholstery
What Furniture Reupholstery Actually Does
Reupholstery replaces the fabric, foam, and padding on your furniture while keeping the original frame, springs, and wooden structure intact. It is different from a simple slipcover. A full job covers seat cushions, back cushions, arms, and any visible piping or trim. Most people choose this service to preserve a piece with sentimental value or solid hardwood construction.
Disassembly and Reassembly Steps
A professional reupholstery job starts with full disassembly: legs removed, cushion covers opened, and the old fabric carefully taken off to use as a pattern. New pieces are cut, sewn, and fitted one layer at a time. Trims, nailheads, and welting are reapplied last. Rushed disassembly leads to broken trim and lost hardware. Ask if the quote includes photographing the original layout for reference.
Questions to Ask Before Hiring
Ask how many similar pieces the workshop has completed in the past 12 months. Request fabric samples held against your room lighting for 24 hours. Confirm whether the quote includes removing old upholstery, cleaning the frame, and disposing of waste. Get the foam density rating written on the estimate.
Common Pieces That Get Reupholstered
Sofas, armchairs, dining chairs, ottomans, and headboards are the most frequent projects. Wingback chairs, antique settees, and recliners also benefit because replacement pieces of similar quality are hard to source. Office task chairs with worn seats can usually be reupholstered in under 2 hours per unit.
How Location in the Home Changes the Plan
Furniture in sunny rooms fades quickly, so UV-resistant fabric or protective window film helps. Pieces near kitchens or fireplaces need stain-resistant treatments. Basement storage can cause mildew on old foam, which means the new fill needs anti-microbial additives. Outdoor furniture uses marine-grade fabric and quick-dry foam. Tell the professional where the piece will live so the right materials are chosen.
Caring for Reupholstered Furniture
Vacuum cushions weekly with a soft brush attachment. Rotate seat cushions every 2 weeks to even out wear. Blot spills immediately; do not rub. Professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months extends fabric life. Keep pieces away from windows with strong sun exposure and maintain room humidity between 40 and 55 percent to prevent wood frame movement.
Understanding Foam Density
Seat foam is sold by density, not firmness. A density rating of 1.8 pounds per cubic foot lasts around 8 years for daily use. Ratings below 1.5 will flatten within 2 to 3 years. High-resilience foam at 2.5 or higher feels firmer but supports more weight without bottoming out.
What the Pickup and Delivery Process Looks Like
Most shops offer pickup and delivery for a flat fee based on distance and piece size. Items are usually wrapped in moving blankets to protect the new fabric. Delivery drivers will not remove doors or hoist pieces upstairs beyond a landing. You should clear the path and the room before the crew arrives. Ask whether the fee includes placing the furniture back in its spot.
What Happens to Cushion Fill During Reupholstery
Cushion cores can be reused if they still spring back and feel even. Most pros recommend new high-resilience foam wrapped in dacron batting for a softer, rounded look. Down-and-feather wraps cost more and need regular fluffing. Old foam loses shape and density, so reusing it usually shortens the life of your new fabric. Ask whether the quote includes new fill or just a cover change.
How Professionals Measure and Quote
Measurements are taken seam to seam, including cushion covers, arms, and skirts. A three-seat sofa typically requires 18 to 22 yards of 54 inch wide fabric. Quotes should itemize fabric, foam, labor, and any structural work. Beware of flat-rate quotes that hide low-grade foam or reused padding.
