How Much Does Furniture Reupholstery Cost in Metro Vancouver?

Costs depend on the size of the piece, fabric choice, and any repairs. Typical ranges: Dining chairs $150-$350, Armchairs $400-$800, Sofas $800-$2,500, Sectionals $2,000-$4,000. Share photos for an exact quote tailored to your furniture.

How Long Does the Upholstery Process Take?

After approval, most projects are scheduled within a week. Dining chairs return in 3-5 business days, armchairs in about a week, sofas and sectionals within 2-3 weeks, and antiques may take up to 4-6 weeks to preserve fine details.

Do You Offer Pickup or Delivery Services?

We focus on in-workshop craftsmanship and don't operate a pickup or delivery fleet. Most clients drop pieces off themselves or hire a mover. Need a referral? We'll recommend trusted partners across Metro Vancouver.

What Types of Furniture Do You Reupholster?

We regularly reupholster sofas, sectionals, armchairs, recliners, dining chairs, ottomans, benches, headboards, and heirloom antiques. Commercial seating and custom builds are also welcome.

Can You Help Me Choose Fabrics and Finishes?

Yes. We provide guidance on performance, natural, and designer fabrics as well as leather, vinyl, and trims. Consultations can be done in your home or at our Port Coquitlam workshop with samples and swatches.

Is Reupholstering Cheaper Than Buying New Furniture?

Yes, typically you save 40-60% compared to buying new quality furniture. Reupholstering also preserves the superior craftsmanship and solid wood frames of older furniture, which often outlast modern mass-produced pieces. Plus, you can choose custom fabrics unavailable on new furniture.

Where Are You Located and What Areas Do You Serve?

Our workshop is in Port Coquitlam, BC. We serve all of Metro Vancouver including Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Delta, Langley, North Vancouver, Maple Ridge, and Port Moody. Clients typically arrange drop-off or we can recommend trusted movers.

Can You Match My Existing Fabric or Find Something Similar?

Yes. Bring a sample or photo and we'll help you find a match or suggest complementary alternatives from our extensive fabric selection. We work with performance fabrics, designer textiles, leather, and specialty materials to suit any style or budget.

Do You Offer Free Quotes and Consultations?

Yes, we provide free quotes and consultations for all reupholstery projects. Simply call (236) 863-5056 or email photos of your furniture to vi1reupholstery@gmail.com. We'll assess the piece, discuss your fabric preferences, and provide a detailed estimate with no obligation. Honest assessments are our specialty—if your piece isn't worth reupholstering, we'll tell you upfront.

What Factors Affect Furniture Reupholstery Pricing?

Several factors influence the final cost: furniture size and complexity (sectionals cost more than chairs), fabric choice ($30-$200+ per yard), structural repairs needed (springs, frames, webbing), design details (tufting, welting, buttons add labour time), and material quantity required. A standard sofa typically needs 12-18 yards of fabric. We provide transparent quotes breaking down all costs before starting any work.

Do You Warranty Your Reupholstery Work?

Yes, we stand behind our craftsmanship. All reupholstery work includes a warranty covering our workmanship and construction. The specific terms depend on the project type and materials used. We use quality materials and time-tested techniques, and with nearly 30 years in business, we're committed to work that lasts.
