Hear from Our Customers
Your furniture tells the story of your home. When that story includes faded fabrics, worn cushions, or outdated patterns, it’s time for a transformation that goes beyond surface cleaning.
Our professional upholstery services don’t just refresh your furniture—we completely reimagine it. Picture walking into your living room and seeing that beloved sofa looking more stunning than the day you bought it, with fabrics that resist stains and wear while perfectly complementing your refined taste.
The difference isn’t just visual. Quality upholstery work extends your furniture’s lifespan by years, protects your investment, and creates healthier indoor air by removing embedded allergens and contaminants that regular cleaning can’t reach.
We bring over 20 years of upholstery expertise to North Bal Harbor, building on our established success in New York and Toronto. We understand that North Bal Harbor residents expect nothing less than perfection when it comes to their luxury furnishings.
Our team has transformed thousands of pieces for discerning homeowners who refuse to compromise on quality. From oceanfront condos to sprawling estates, we’ve worked with North Bal Harbor’s most prestigious properties, always delivering results that exceed expectations.
What sets us apart is our commitment to using only premium materials and time-tested techniques. We’re not just restoring your furniture—we’re enhancing your entire living experience with pieces that reflect the sophisticated lifestyle North Bal Harbor is known for.
Every upholstery project starts with understanding exactly what you need. We begin with a comprehensive assessment of your furniture, examining the frame structure, existing fabric condition, and your design preferences to create a customized restoration plan.
Next comes fabric selection from our extensive collection of premium materials. Whether you’re drawn to luxurious leather, performance fabrics that resist stains and fading, or custom patterns that perfectly match your décor, we guide you through options that combine beauty with functionality.
The transformation happens in our workshop, where skilled craftsmen carefully strip away old materials, repair any structural issues, and rebuild your furniture using techniques that often surpass the original construction. Every seam, every cushion, every detail receives meticulous attention to ensure your finished piece becomes a true centerpiece of your home.

Our upholstery services cover everything from antique restoration to modern furniture makeovers. We work with all fabric types—leather, microfiber, silk, wool, and performance materials—ensuring your furniture receives the specialized care it deserves.
North Bal Harbor’s coastal environment presents unique challenges for furniture. Salt air, humidity, and intense sunlight can accelerate wear and fading. That’s why we recommend marine-grade and UV-resistant fabrics for homes near the water, along with protective treatments that guard against moisture and sun damage.
Beyond restoration, we offer custom upholstery for new furniture pieces, allowing you to create one-of-a-kind items that perfectly fit your space and style. From built-in banquettes to custom headboards, our team can bring any upholstery vision to life with the quality and attention to detail that North Bal Harbor homeowners expect.
Most upholstery projects take 2-4 weeks from start to finish, depending on the complexity of the piece and fabric availability. Simple reupholstering of a standard chair might be completed in 10-14 days, while complex pieces like sectional sofas or antique furniture requiring structural repairs can take 3-6 weeks.
We provide detailed timelines during your initial consultation and keep you updated throughout the process. Rush services are available for urgent projects, though we always recommend allowing adequate time to ensure the highest quality results.
The timeline includes fabric ordering (which can take 1-2 weeks for specialty materials), careful removal of existing upholstery, any necessary frame repairs, and the meticulous process of applying new materials. Quality work simply cannot be rushed, and we’d rather deliver exceptional results than quick turnarounds.
North Bal Harbor’s coastal location requires fabrics that can handle humidity, salt air, and intense UV exposure. We typically recommend solution-dyed acrylic fabrics like Sunbrella for outdoor furniture, as they’re specifically engineered to resist fading, mold, and moisture damage.
For indoor furniture, performance fabrics with stain-resistant treatments work exceptionally well. These include crypton fabrics, which repel liquids and resist odors, and microfiber blends that maintain their appearance despite humidity fluctuations. Leather can also be excellent if properly treated with conditioners that prevent cracking in humid conditions.
We strongly advise against untreated natural fibers like cotton or linen in coastal areas, as they’re prone to mold and rapid deterioration. During your consultation, we’ll assess your home’s specific conditions—proximity to water, sun exposure, air conditioning usage—to recommend fabrics that will look beautiful and last for years.
Absolutely. Antique restoration is one of our specialties, and we understand that preserving the piece’s historical integrity is just as important as improving its function and appearance. Our approach involves carefully documenting the original construction methods and materials before beginning any work.
We use period-appropriate techniques whenever possible, including hand-tied springs, horsehair stuffing, and traditional tufting methods for pieces where authenticity matters. For fabrics, we can source historically accurate patterns and weaves, or work with you to choose appropriate alternatives that maintain the piece’s character while offering improved durability.
Our craftsmen have experience with furniture from every era, from Victorian pieces requiring intricate button tufting to mid-century modern furniture needing specific foam densities and clean lines. We’ll work closely with you to determine which original elements to preserve and which can be improved without compromising the piece’s authenticity and value.
We provide white-glove pickup and delivery service throughout North Bal Harbor and surrounding areas. Our team uses professional moving equipment and protective materials to ensure your furniture arrives at our workshop and returns to your home in perfect condition.
Pickup appointments are scheduled at your convenience, typically within 2-3 days of project approval. We carefully wrap and protect each piece during transport, and our delivery trucks are equipped with lift gates and moving dollies to handle pieces of any size safely.
Upon delivery, we don’t just drop off your furniture—we place it exactly where you want it, remove all protective materials, and inspect the piece with you to ensure you’re completely satisfied. We also provide care instructions and can apply additional protective treatments if requested. Our goal is to make the entire process as seamless as possible for busy North Bal Harbor residents.
Reupholstering typically costs 30-50% less than purchasing comparable new furniture of the same quality, especially for well-built pieces with solid wood frames. A high-quality sofa that might cost $3,000-$5,000 new can often be completely reupholstered for $1,500-$2,500, depending on fabric choice and complexity.
The savings become even more significant with antique or custom pieces that would be impossible to replace. Beyond cost, reupholstering allows you to keep furniture that fits your space perfectly and holds sentimental value while updating it to match your current style and needs.
However, we’re honest about when replacement makes more sense. Furniture with particle board frames, broken springs, or extensive structural damage might not be worth the investment. During our initial assessment, we’ll provide a detailed cost comparison and honest recommendation about whether reupholstering or replacement offers better value for your specific situation.
Yes, we stand behind our work with comprehensive warranties that reflect our confidence in both our craftsmanship and material quality. Our workmanship is guaranteed for two years, covering any issues with seams, construction, or installation that result from our work.
Fabric warranties vary by manufacturer but typically range from 3-10 years depending on the material. We only work with reputable fabric suppliers who back their products, and we’ll provide you with all warranty documentation and care instructions to ensure you get maximum life from your investment.
If any issues arise during the warranty period, we’ll return to assess and correct the problem at no charge. This includes re-stretching fabric that may have loosened, tightening any hardware, or addressing seam issues. We also offer extended warranty options for clients who want additional peace of mind, especially valuable for high-use pieces or coastal properties where environmental factors can be more challenging.
