Your furniture deserves better than a three-year lifespan. When you choose professional reupholstery, you’re investing in pieces that will serve your family for 50 to 100 years.
That’s not marketing speak—that’s the difference between mass-produced furniture and skilled craftsmanship. We rebuild your furniture from the inside out, replacing worn springs, updating padding, and wrapping everything in fabrics that can handle real life.
You’ll save thousands compared to buying new quality furniture. More importantly, you’ll keep the pieces that matter—the chair your grandmother loved, the sofa where your kids learned to read, the ottoman that’s been the perfect height for decades.
We bring fifteen years of design expertise to Barwal, with established operations in New York City and Toronto. We’ve helped thousands of clients across South Florida create spaces that reflect their personality and meet their needs.
We work exclusively with premium brands and materials made in the USA. When we assess your furniture, we’ll give you honest advice about whether reupholstery makes sense or if you’re better off starting fresh.
Barwal residents appreciate quality and longevity—values that align perfectly with what professional reupholstery delivers. We understand the local climate challenges and select fabrics that perform well in Florida’s humidity while maintaining their beauty year after year.
We start with an honest assessment of your furniture. Our craftsmen examine the frame, springs, and existing upholstery to determine what needs attention. You’ll get a clear explanation of what we found and what we recommend.
Next comes fabric selection—often the most exciting part of the process. We’ll guide you through options that match your lifestyle, from pet-friendly performance fabrics to luxurious natural fibers. We consider everything: durability, maintenance, color fastness, and how the fabric will age in your specific environment.
The transformation happens in our workshop. We carefully disassemble your piece, repair or replace springs and padding, then rebuild everything to current standards. Your furniture returns looking better than new, with the structural integrity to last generations.

Our upholstery services cover everything from simple fabric updates to complete furniture restoration. We handle sofas, chairs, ottomans, headboards, and custom pieces with equal attention to detail.
Barwal’s coastal location means your furniture faces unique challenges—salt air, humidity, and intense sun. We select materials specifically suited to South Florida conditions. Our fabric partnerships include suppliers who understand tropical climates and engineer their products accordingly.
Commercial clients throughout Broward County trust us for hotel lobbies, restaurant seating, and office furniture. We understand the durability requirements of high-traffic environments and can recommend solutions that maintain their appearance despite heavy use.
Professional reupholstery typically costs 40-60% less than purchasing comparable new furniture. The exact savings depend on your piece’s complexity and your fabric choice.
Here’s what makes reupholstery economical: you’re keeping a solid hardwood frame that would cost thousands to replicate today. Most furniture manufactured in the last twenty years uses engineered wood and shortcuts that won’t last. When we reupholster your piece, we’re essentially giving you a custom furniture piece at a fraction of the cost.
The value becomes even clearer when you consider longevity. Properly reupholstered furniture lasts 50-100 years, while new furniture typically needs replacement every 3-5 years. You’re not just saving money upfront—you’re avoiding future furniture purchases.
Florida requires fabrics that can handle humidity, salt air, and UV exposure without fading or developing mold. We recommend performance fabrics, solution-dyed acrylics, and treated natural fibers specifically engineered for coastal environments.
Performance fabrics resist stains, moisture, and fading while maintaining the look and feel of traditional upholstery. Solution-dyed acrylics offer exceptional color retention and can be cleaned with bleach solutions when needed. For natural fiber lovers, we source cotton and linen treated with protective finishes that prevent moisture absorption.
We avoid fabrics with metallic threads, untreated silk, or delicate weaves that can’t withstand Florida’s climate. During your consultation, we’ll show you samples and explain how each fabric performs in real-world conditions, helping you choose materials that will look beautiful for decades.
Yes, reupholstery offers excellent opportunities for style updates. We can modify arm styles, change tufting patterns, adjust seat depth, and update decorative details while maintaining your furniture’s structural integrity.
Common modifications include changing rolled arms to track arms, adding or removing tufting, updating trim and piping, and adjusting cushion firmness. We can also add modern conveniences like USB ports or wireless charging capabilities to traditional pieces.
However, some changes aren’t practical or cost-effective. We’ll discuss your style goals during the assessment and recommend modifications that make sense for your piece and budget. Sometimes a complete style change costs more than starting with new furniture, so we’ll give you honest guidance about what works best.
Most reupholstery projects take 4-8 weeks from pickup to delivery, depending on the piece’s complexity and fabric availability. Simple chairs might be ready in three weeks, while complex sectionals or pieces requiring structural repairs can take longer.
The timeline includes fabric ordering (1-2 weeks), workshop time (2-4 weeks), and quality control. Rush orders are possible for an additional fee, but we don’t recommend hurrying the process—proper reupholstery requires time for each step to be done correctly.
We provide regular updates throughout the process and will contact you immediately if we discover issues that might affect the timeline or cost. Most delays involve fabric shipments or unexpected structural repairs, but we’ll keep you informed every step of the way.
Antique and heirloom furniture restoration is one of our specialties. These pieces often have superior construction that makes reupholstery extremely worthwhile, but they require craftsmen who understand traditional techniques and materials.
We use period-appropriate methods when possible, including hand-tied springs, horsehair padding, and traditional webbing systems. For pieces with historical significance, we document the original construction before making any changes and can preserve original materials when requested.
Many antique pieces need structural repairs before reupholstery—loose joints, broken springs, or damaged frames. We have the woodworking skills to restore these elements properly, ensuring your heirloom piece will serve future generations. We also maintain detailed records of our work for insurance and historical purposes.
We provide a comprehensive two-year warranty covering our workmanship and a separate fabric warranty that varies by manufacturer. Our workmanship warranty covers frame repairs, spring systems, and construction quality—basically everything we touch during the reupholstery process.
Fabric warranties depend on the manufacturer but typically range from one to ten years. Performance fabrics often carry longer warranties than natural fibers. We’ll explain each fabric’s specific warranty terms during selection so you understand what’s covered.
Our warranty doesn’t cover normal wear, damage from pets or accidents, or issues caused by improper care. We provide detailed care instructions for your specific fabric and are always available to answer maintenance questions. Most warranty claims involve manufacturing defects discovered within the first few months, which we handle quickly and completely.
