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.
Measure the double rub count: 15,000 rubs suits light residential use, while 30,000 or higher handles daily family rooms. Cotton blends breathe well but stain easily. Microfiber resists spills but can pill. Leather and performance weaves last longer but cost 40 to 80 percent more per yard than standard cotton.
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.
Tack strips and staples are what hold fabric tight across the frame. Cheap staples can rust, bleed through light fabrics, and let the cover loosen over time. Stainless or coated staples last longer in humid rooms. Pros use pneumatic tools for even tension and consistent pull. Ask whether the work includes removing old staples and inspecting for hidden damage underneath each strip.
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.
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.
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.
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.
A single dining chair takes 3 to 5 working days from drop-off to pickup. An armchair averages 2 to 3 weeks. A full three-seat sofa usually needs 4 to 6 weeks, especially if the shop outsources cushion filling. Rush jobs cost 20 to 30 percent more and should be confirmed in writing.
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.
