Our client had a sofa and chairs with good structure and the size and style fit the home but was looking for an updated look for the living room. In a case such as this finding new fabric and reupholstering the furniture was the option we chose.

It's important to understand the benefit of reupholstering over purchasing new. When your furniture is of good quality, you like the style, and it fits in your room than reupholstering may be the way to go for you.

The cost of reupholstering your quality furniture will be an investment in your home just as when you purchased your furniture in the first place. So you can expect to pay as much or maybe even a little more, depending on the fabrics selected, than you paid for your pieces originally.

Things such as replacing the cushion inserts or upgrading to down envelopes over foam inserts, retying the springs, or adding style changes are a few things that may add to the overall cost of the piece.
