Our Upholstery Services
Custom Furniture Reupholstery
Custom reupholstery gives you the opportunity to renew the comfort and appearance of your furniture while preserving its original frame, proportions and character.
We can remove the existing upholstery, assess the condition of the furniture and rebuild the piece using new fabric, padding, foam or other materials as required.
Custom reupholstery is available for:
Every project is different. We will discuss how the furniture is used, the look you want to achieve and any repairs that may be required before the work begins.
Sofa and Chair Reupholstery
A well-built sofa or chair can often be renewed instead of replaced.
Reupholstery may be a good choice when your furniture still fits your room, has a solid frame or offers a level of comfort that is difficult to find in newer furniture. New upholstery can update worn, faded or damaged fabric while allowing you to keep the shape and construction you already enjoy.
Depending on the condition of the piece, sofa and chair reupholstery may include:
- Removal of old upholstery
- Replacement of worn fabric
- New foam or cushioning
- Padding replacement
- Minor frame repairs
- Spring or support repairs
- Zipper or cushion repairs
- Updated decorative details
Send us photographs of your sofa or chair for an initial assessment.
Dining Chair Reupholstery
Dining chairs experience years of regular use and often begin to show wear in the fabric, foam or seat support long before the chair itself needs to be replaced.
We reupholster individual dining chairs and complete dining sets. Services may include:
- Fabric replacement
- New seat foam
- Cushion rebuilding
- Seat support repairs
- Minor wood touch-ups
- Repair of loose or damaged components
Reupholstering a matching set can preserve the quality and sentimental value of the furniture while giving your dining room an updated appearance.
Antique Furniture Restoration
Antique and heirloom furniture often carries family history that cannot be replaced.
Country Custom Upholstering carefully restores upholstered antique furniture with respect for the age, construction and character of each piece. We assess the upholstery, padding, frame and visible wood before recommending a restoration approach.
Antique furniture services may include:
- Traditional reupholstery
- Fabric replacement
- Padding and cushioning restoration
- Minor frame repairs
- Wood touch-ups
- Seat support repairs
- Preservation of decorative details
- Careful removal and replacement of upholstery materials
Our goal is to renew the function and beauty of the furniture while preserving the qualities that make the piece meaningful.
Furniture Recovering
Furniture recovering is suitable for pieces that remain structurally sound but need new upholstery fabric.
The existing fabric is removed and replaced with a new material selected to suit your home, lifestyle and design preferences. During the process, we will also identify visible issues that may need attention before the new upholstery is installed.
Recovering may be appropriate for furniture with:
- Worn or faded fabric
- Outdated colours or patterns
- Pet damage
- Stains or surface wear
- Minor tears
- Upholstery that no longer suits the room
The final recommendation will depend on the condition and construction of the furniture.
Furniture Repair
Furniture often requires more than new fabric. Loose supports, damaged cushions or minor frame issues may need to be repaired before a piece can be properly reupholstered.
Furniture repair services may include:
- Minor frame repairs
- Loose joint repairs
- Cushion repairs
- Zipper replacement
- Seat support repairs
- Spring repairs
- Minor wood touch-ups
- Replacement of worn upholstery components
Not every type of furniture damage can be repaired. Email clear photos of the issue so we can determine whether the piece may be suitable for assessment.
Cushion and Foam Replacement
Worn foam can make otherwise good furniture feel uncomfortable, uneven or unsupportive.
We provide cushion and foam replacement for sofas, chairs, benches, dining seats and other upholstered pieces. Foam can be selected based on the size of the cushion, desired firmness and how frequently the furniture is used.
Cushion services may include:
- Replacement seat foam
- Replacement back cushion filling
- Custom-cut foam
- Cushion rebuilding
- New cushion covers
- Zipper repair or replacement
- Dining-chair seat foam replacement
Bring the existing cushion or send photographs and measurements for an initial discussion.
Boat Upholstery
Country Custom Upholstering provides upholstery services for select boat cushions and seating.
Boat upholstery projects may include:
- Seat recovering
- Cushion replacement
- Foam replacement
- Vinyl upholstery
- Seam or panel repairs
- Custom cushion work
Because marine seating is exposed to moisture, sunlight and temperature changes, material selection is an important part of the project. Email photographs, measurements and a description of the seating for an initial assessment.
Motorcycle and Automotive Seats
We provide custom upholstery and recovering for select motorcycle and automotive seats.
Services may include:
- Motorcycle seat recovering
- Seat foam adjustments
- Vinyl or upholstery replacement
- Custom seat covers
- Repair of damaged upholstery panels
- Selected automotive seat projects
Project suitability depends on the seat design, condition and requested work. Send clear photographs from several angles when requesting an estimate.
Leather and Vinyl Repair
We may be able to assist with certain leather or vinyl upholstery repairs, depending on the type and extent of the damage.
Potential services include:
- Panel replacement
- Seam repairs
- Minor upholstery repairs
- Cushion or cover replacement
- Vinyl replacement on suitable pieces
Leather and vinyl vary considerably in construction and condition. Please email detailed photographs before bringing the item to the workshop.
Upholstery Fabric Selection
The right fabric should complement the furniture, suit your home and withstand the way the piece will be used.
Customers can visit our Foothills County workshop by appointment to browse a wide selection of upholstery fabric books. We can help you compare options based on:
- Colour and pattern
- Texture
- Durability
- Cleanability
- Household use
- Children or pets
- Traditional or modern style
- The age and design of the furniture
Fabric availability and pricing vary. Final project pricing is confirmed after the fabric and required work have been selected.
Renew the Furniture You Already Love
Replacing furniture is not always the best option.
A well-made sofa, chair or dining set may have stronger construction, better proportions or greater sentimental value than many new pieces. Reupholstery allows you to keep what works while changing what no longer does.
Reupholstery may be worth considering when:
- The frame is solid and well built
- The furniture is comfortable
- The piece fits your room well
- The furniture has sentimental value
- You prefer the quality of the existing construction
- You want greater control over fabric and colour
- The piece would be difficult to replace
- You want to reduce unnecessary furniture waste
We will give you an honest assessment of the piece and the work it is likely to require.
A New Look Without Replacing Everything
A change in upholstery fabric can transform a room.
Instead of replacing furniture that still functions well, you can coordinate new fabric with your existing flooring, paint, wood tones and décor. Reupholstery can help you create a more cohesive room while retaining furniture that already suits your space.
Our fabric selection includes a wide variety of colours, patterns, textures and upholstery materials. We can help you narrow down the options based on your furniture, preferred style and everyday needs.
What to Include With Your Estimate Request
To receive a preliminary estimate by email, please send:
- A full photo of the furniture
- Photos of the front, back and sides
- Close-up photos of worn or damaged areas
- Approximate dimensions
- The number of matching pieces
- Your location
- A description of what you would like done
- Any preferred colours, fabrics or styles
- Details about pets, children or frequent use when relevant
- Information about the age or history of the furniture, if known
Photos allow us to provide a useful starting estimate, but they may not reveal all repairs or internal conditions. Final pricing is confirmed once the furniture, fabric choice and required work have been properly assessed.
