| Upholstery
and Reupholstery FAQs |
 |
| Q: |
Is my furniture
worth re-upholstering? |
| A: |
In most cases it will be.
If it has good frame, is constructionally sturdy,
has lasted for 5-10 years or more and is comfortable
than re-upholstery
is a great choice |
|
| Q: |
Isn’t it cheaper
to buy new furniture? |
| A: |
You get what you pay for.
At times, reupholstery
can cost as much as moderately priced new
furniture. When comparing make sure they are
of similar quality both construction and fabric,
the cost of high
quality furniture is far greater then re-upholstering
therefor it is smart to re-use your existing piece.
Beware of cheap new furniture that are manufactured
with poor materials, they do not hold-up and within
short time you will regret that purchase. |

replace padding and foam filling as necessary
