Upholstery and Furniture Care

Antique Chair Upholstery

Refresh an antique chair with upholstery chosen to suit its age, proportions, and use. Work can include removing worn coverings, checking the padding and frame, and fitting new fabric with care. Whether the chair is used every day or kept as a treasured piece, the aim is a comfortable finish that respects its original character.

Sofa Reupholstery

Reupholstery can help a well-loved antique or older sofa remain part of your home. The process typically includes assessing the frame and existing upholstery, discussing suitable fabrics, and replacing the covering with close attention to seams, trim, and shape. The result keeps the sofa’s familiar presence while giving it a refreshed appearance and renewed everyday use.

Seat Padding Renewal

Flattened or uneven padding can affect how a chair or sofa feels and looks. Padding renewal addresses the seat or back where needed, with materials selected to suit the piece and its intended use. An assessment helps identify what can be retained and what may need replacing, so the furniture stays supportive without losing its distinctive form.

Antique Furniture Repairs

Older furniture may need attention beyond a new covering. An assessment can identify loose upholstery, worn webbing, tired padding, or minor issues affecting the piece’s use. The work is guided by the furniture’s construction and condition, with the goal of making practical improvements while retaining details that give an antique its character.

Fabric Selection Advice

The right fabric balances appearance, feel, durability, and the character of the furniture. Get guidance on options that suit the piece’s shape and period, as well as how often it will be used. Bring room colours or inspiration to the conversation, and consider samples before deciding on a covering for your chair or sofa.

Upholstery Restoration

Upholstery restoration focuses on improving a piece while preserving the details that make it distinctive. The work starts with an assessment of the covering, padding, and visible construction. From there, appropriate repairs and fabric choices can be discussed. Each antique is different, so the restoration approach is shaped around its condition, design, and intended place in your home.
