FAQ'S
Answer: A piece is worth reupholstering if it has a good frame; kiln-dried hardwood with corner blocks is a good indicator. Older pieces (typically 15 years old or older) tend to be of better quality. Sentimental pieces, such as a grandparent's favorite chair, are great candidates for upholstery. Custom built spaces are also perfect projects for us to help you with because we will have cushions patterned to fit perfectly in the space.
