Well made furniture can last for decades and it is always worth to recover a comfortable lounge with a steady, solid frame. During the re-upholstery process, we will check the frame and repair any damaged parts.
Re-upholstery gives an opportunity to change the look of your favourite couch, chair or dining chairs. Some elements of furniture such as decorative braids, piping, buttons or studs can be added to a lounge, or removed. A large selection of upholstery fabrics and leather allows you to create a fresh new look to the furniture. It is a good idea to take samples of fabric home, as the colour could look different in a home setting. The amount of fabric you would need to purchase depends on the width of material, pattern and design of that specific fabric. Doing a re-upholstery job using fabric with a large pattern repeat takes more material than using plain fabric. Railroaded fabric is more economical for furniture upholstery.
The comfort of a lounge can be immensely improved by changing the springs, webbing and padding. There are few different grades of seat and back foam. We recommend to try sample cushions before ordering.
