Chris Upholstery
Upholsterers in Southport, CT
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 January 2016
“The only reason I hesitate to write this review is because I think they are the best kept secret in Fairfield County. I've had them work on quite a few projects including making and upholstering a bed, a couch , a chair, ottomans and swivel chairs. The quality of the work , detail and product is tremendous. I have loved every piece they have done for me. They are true perfectionist and it shows in the end product. As far as customer service , they are a total pleasure to deal with and have high regard for customers. Timing is so important and they deliver on what they say in terms of when projects will be done. I really can not rave enough about how great these guys are.”

“Nonny was amazing to work with! She had come in to help me with a small kitchen valance. Valance looks fantastic. I mentioned the sofa that the puppy chewed a hole in and she immediately had a solution. The finished product looks like it was purchased that way.”

Upcycling has become more and more popular lately, as the fashion for retro and rustic furniture has returned, but doing it yourself can cause all sorts of mishaps, so professional furniture restoration specialists should be called in to handle the job properly, especially if the piece of furniture you’re dealing with is particularly tricky. Upholsterers in Southport are your saving grace when it comes to refreshing your furniture or soft furnishings. It’s true that when redesigning or redecorating a home, it’s tempting to throw everything out and start again with all-new furniture and decor. But this requires a big budget and a ruthless attitude, which may not necessarily be needed with all redesigns, so instead, consider hiring Southport furniture upholsterers to reupholster, repair, restore or redesign some key pieces for you.

You’d be surprised at the magic furniture upholsterers can do to an old piece of soft furnishing; rips can be mended, worn fabric refreshed and extra elements added, at a lower price than buying brand new. You can ask for reupholstery or furniture restoration of the item, to match it as closely as possible to its former glory or ask for something completely different to match your redesign. Trims, piping and fringing can be added for additional flourishes, new fabric patterns chosen, extra padding added, chair backs or headboards buttoned and new sofa or duvet covers stitched.

If you’re not quite sure what to do with your old furniture, try taking it to furniture furniture restoration specialists in Southport to ask for their advice. Established upholstery services will be able to handle all sorts of fabric upholstery and reupholstery, including leather upholstery, and recommend the fabric that will work with your furniture and design theme. They will also be able to tell you about the durability of the fabric they will use and how to look after your re-upholstered item.
