Residential Furniture Upholstery & Reupholstery
A well-made sofa, a set of dining chairs or a chair that has been in the family for years often has a frame worth keeping long after the fabric wears out. UpholsteryLink routes residential furniture upholstery requests to approved professionals who take them on.

Reupholster or replace?
- When does reupholstery make sense?
- Usually when the frame is solid, the size and shape suit the room, or the piece matters to you. Sound hardwood frames are often worth recovering.
- Can the cushions be refreshed too?
- Yes. Furniture recovering can include new foam or cushion inserts where the old ones have flattened, and repairs to springs or webbing where needed.
- Is this only for high-end furniture?
- No. It covers quality pieces, family pieces and anything you’d rather keep than replace. The vendor quotes each piece after seeing it.
- Can I supply my own fabric?
- Often, yes — say so in the request. Otherwise the vendor can suggest fabrics suited to how the piece is used.
