About Furniture Reupholstery
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.
Webbing, Springs, and Structural Repair
Ask whether the professional will replace the jute or elastic webbing, retie the eight-way hand-tied springs if present, and inspect the frame for loose joints. Squeaky frames usually need regluing and corner blocks replaced. These hidden repairs often add 1 to 3 days of labor but prevent early failure.
Signs Your Furniture Needs Reupholstery
Look for fabric that is faded, torn, or thinning at the seams and armrests. Flat cushions that no longer hold shape, exposed foam, or sagging springs are also clear signs. Wooden frames showing through the upholstery indicate the fabric has stretched beyond recovery. Stains that resist cleaning, especially on light fabrics, often push the decision toward reupholstery.
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.
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.
How Frame Condition Affects the Job
Before any fabric goes on, the frame has to hold weight for years to come. Pros check for loose corner blocks, cracked rails, and split dowels. If joints are wobbly, they need gluing and clamping or full replacement. Kiln-dried hardwood frames survive reupholstery better than particleboard. A weak frame will make even premium fabric sag early. Always ask for a frame condition report in writing.
What Drives the Final Price
Three main factors control cost: fabric choice, frame condition, and cushion complexity. Down-wrapped cushions, tufted backs, and skirted bases add labor hours. Hidden frame repairs discovered mid-project can raise the bill, so ask for a written estimate with a not-to-exceed clause before work begins.
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 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.
Why a Written Quote Matters
Verbal quotes lead to disputes when the bill arrives. A written quote should list fabric cost, labor, foam, trim, hardware, and any structural repair as separate line items. It should also state who pays for extra work found during disassembly. Ask for the quote by email or printed form with a signature line. This protects both sides if the scope grows mid-project.
