Furniture Upholstery
Furniture Upholstery in San Antonio
Keep the piece. Change the way it makes the room feel. Well-loved, outdated, and one-of-a-kind furniture reworked with thoughtful upholstery, beautiful textiles, and careful hands.
More Than New Fabric
Reupholstery Is a Design Decision
Fabric is only the beginning. Proportion, texture, the depth of a seat, the line of a welt, whether a skirt stays or the legs come forward: those choices are what make a piece look intentional instead of simply covered.
I ask about who uses the piece, where it belongs in your home, and what it should feel like when it comes back.
What I Take On
Upholstery Work, Piece by Piece
One chair or a whole room of seating. Both are welcome on the bench.
Accent & Lounge Chairs
The chair you keep moving from room to room, brought back with a fabric that finally suits it.
Dining & Swivel Chairs
Sets of two, four, or ten, patterned so every seat matches at the welt and the corners.
Sofas & Settees
Full reupholstery, tightened seats, and skirts or exposed legs finished the way the frame asks for.
Ottomans & Benches
Tufted, boxed, or clean-topped, sized for the room they are going into.
Seat & Back Cushions
New covers for cushions that are still good, and new inserts for the ones that are not.
Boxed Cushions
Window seats, banquettes, and daybeds cut with a true box so the edges hold their shape.
Piping, Welt & Details
Matching or contrast piping, nailhead trim, and stitch placement chosen with you.
Fabric Replacement
Bring your own textile or explore my samples. I check the yardage before you commit.
Padding & Cushioning
Foam, batting, and support improved where a piece has gone soft or uneven.
Restoration Alongside Upholstery
Frame tightening and finish work when a piece needs it to sit right again.
What It Could Become
Same Frame, Different Room
Sometimes the goal is to preserve the character of a piece and let it look like itself again. Sometimes a dated silhouette only needs a quieter fabric and a cleaner detail to read as current. And sometimes you want something entirely new: a color you would not have expected, contrast piping, a texture that changes the whole feel of the room.
Fabric, piping, and finish details are coordinated together, and tired cushioning gets attention where it will actually help. See more of the range in my portfolio or across all services.
If the frame itself is loose, worn, or in need of repair before anything new goes on it, that work lives with furniture restoration, and I can help you decide which path suits your piece.

An Honest Answer
Is It Worth Reupholstering?
Not every piece should be, and I will tell you when that is the case. The ones that usually make sense look something like this:
- Solid, well-built frames that still feel sturdy
- Pieces with dimensions or comfort you already love
- Vintage or distinctive furniture you would not find again
- Sentimental pieces that came from family
- Furniture that would be hard or costly to replace with something comparable
If you are not sure where your piece falls, send photos and I will give you a straight assessment.
