Procedures

 

ESTIMATE

Each project begins with an estimate.  The best way to obtain an estimate is to email a photo of your item to us using the following link: mimisupholstery@hotmail.com.  If you do not have access to a digital camera, or if you prefer to discuss your project in person, you are welcome to stop by our shop any time.  Appointment is necessary.  Once we have all of the details, we will provide you with an estimate.

FABRIC

The next step is to choose fabric and trim, if required.  We have extensive fabric selections, so we encourage you to view our selection of sample books available for viewing at the office.  Fabric from outside sources is also welcome.

DELIVERY OF FURNITURE TO OUR SHOP

If you are not able to transport the furniture yourself, we offer pick-up and delivery services.  Once the furniture and fabric are at our shop, we will give you an estimated completion date.

 

UPHOLSTERY PROCESS

The work process begins by removing the old fabric and filling to the bare frame.  We check the frame for motion in the joints and repair them.  We inspect springs and webbing and replace them, if required for an additional cost. 

COMPLETION OF WORK

Each piece is personally inspected for quality workmanship. When the work is complete, we will contact you to arrange pick-up or to schedule a delivery date if needed. Please carefully examine each piece of your items. The balance of the job is due upon completion.

 

Why reupholstered?

Do you need a size change? Do you need a design change? Use change? We specialize in custom modifications.

Buying a new sofa or chair these days can be very difficult and expensive. Consumers are often fooled by decorative exteriors that only hide the cheap materials used in mass production factories. The products may look beautiful in showroom but will not hold up long term, resulting in furniture replacement every couple of years. Consider buying quality fabric and construction from us and you’ll have pieces that last a lifetime!
