Furniture re-upholstery is increasingly popular. We answer why so many people choose to re-upholster and more than ever before there are wonderful textiles to choose from.
More & more people are reupholstering their furniture. Sofas, armchairs, chaises, daybeds, dining chairs and ottomans are less likely to be thrown away adding to the landfill.
You can, often, buy a new piece for about the same price as rejuvenating your old, so why is this a trend? Usually there are a myriad of reasons and the following are some of our insights as to why people today are putting in the effort.
THE ENVIRONMENT
We are starting with this as truly throwing away furniture is wasteful. Increasingly the environment is driving the decision to reupholster, unloved furniture takes up a lot of space in dumps and the toxins from their burning does not bear thinking about. For this and many other reasons many of us hate abandoning our furniture.

COMFORTABLE & WELL-LOVED FURNITURE
Your tired furniture has great bones, it’s super comfortable, perfect for your space and you cannot find a new one as good as your old…
…and with work we can make it better than it was.
For emotional reasons, you love it for its history or sentimental significance. Perhaps it is inherited, or your family has grown up with it.
We can’t help but think this is a very good reason.
