  1. 7 Upholstery Tips from Pros Choosing an upholstery fabric for new furniture is an easy task but choosing to reupholster your existing furniture can be quite a dilemma. You will have to take into account many things and will have to recycle or upholster the right way. You will have to take the help of professionals in this case. Below are some top upholstery tips from the professionals which will help you greatly. 1. Check Your Furniture Thoroughly some people attach extreme sentimental value and importance to their old furniture and do not want to let go of it. Get your furniture thoroughly checked and reupholster only if the furniture is able to withstand. If it is in a falling condition then let it go, do not waste your money on it. For instance, in a commercial upholstery repair, check whether the product is sturdy and strong enough. There is no use in upholstering when it is a falling state. 2. Check What Can Be Utilized Many people say that reupholstery is expensive. Reupholstery is not about fabric only, it is the fabric, the down, the foam, the filling, and the padding and then the reconstruction of the furniture piece. If the padding and filling are still good to go then you can opt for a change in fabric only and not change the entire filling which will be a lot less expensive. However, most people upholster after a number of years so the fillings and padding may get worn out by that time.

  2. 3. Go for a Combination of Fillings The long-lasting effect of upholstery comes from the filling and padding. Always choose a combination of filling so that it lasts a long time. If you use down only then it will compress easily and you will have to get it fluffed often. Foam is a good and cheap option, while the feather is very light. A combination of down, feather, and foam works perfectly and is very durable. 4. Different Combinations Work Best for Different Furniture All the padding should not be done in the exact ratio in your sofas, chair upholstery repair, your ottoman or sofa pillows. All ratios used are different. If you are not sure about the ratios then you can check the tags for the ratios or you can also ask the professional upholsterer that which ratio will be suitable for cushions, which for back seats and which for sitting. 5. Go for Plain or Printed Designs Stripes and lines are a strict no for upholstery fabrics. As the fabric is stretched over your furniture which will result in crooked and uneven lines. Instead, go for self-plain design or a fabric with small print. 6. Go with the Price That Most People Quote Do not settle immediately for one vendor. Ask from different vendors for a price quote but go with the most vote. If three vendors quote a high price while one quotes very low then go with the higher one as the lowest cost one will surely not do good quality work. 7. Get It Pre-Washed and Buy Extra No matter how many times the vendors say that the fabric will not shrink, do not listen to them. The fabric does shrink and so buy extra than what you are told to buy as not to waste your money. After getting it washed, if the fabric shrinks then it will not fit your furniture so take necessary measures beforehand.
