Request an Estimate: The process begins with an estimate. Please click the "REQUEST AN ESTIMATE" button on either the Home Page menu or on my Custom Upholstery page and fill out the form.
From there, this is how it works:
Receive an Estimate: I respond within 3 business days with an estimate and/or any follow-up questions I may have. The estimate covers labor and internal materials for full re-upholstery of the piece based on the information you have provided. (So, please be as clear and accurate as possible in your description!) As fabric costs vary, I provide a price range for the cover fabric(s) and an estimate of the amount of fabric that will be necessary. (The majority of fabrics I carry range from $50 to $150 per yard and I have many beautiful options at all price points within that range.) Once sent, the estimate is good for 30 days. Upon acceptance of the estimate, I provide an approximate schedule window.
Scheduling: I typically book about 3 months out. Your purchase of fabric, from me, in advance serves as your deposit and secures your space in my book. (Please note: I do not accept fabric that is not purchased through my shop as I can't verify the nature and quality of outside materials.)
Choose Your Fabric: About 2 months before the scheduled work, I conduct an in-home consultation to hear your ideas and discuss your needs and aesthetic. This is when the fun really begins! We talk fabrics and design and I provide you with fabric samples. You have the opportunity to look through my many sample books and/or peruse my fabric suppliers' websites. If that feels overwhelming, don't worry. I love guiding and advising clients through the fabric choice process and, as part of that process, I curate physical sample files and virtual sample boards for you. I bring or send samples of any fabrics that catch your eye to your home. This gives you the chance to to drape them over your furniture and sit with them for a few days to see how they make you feel. Once you choose the fabric(s) that make you happy, you purchase it/them in advance, as mentioned above, to secure your place on my schedule.
*(Note: There is a $50 non-refundable consultation fee for in person visits which will be applied against the cost of labor for the project. If you prefer, we can consult by phone or zoom.)
Pick up & Drop Off: I provide pick up and drop off of items that fit in my vehicle. The fee for pick up and delivery is $100 round trip. As my shop space is small, I don't take pieces in until I am ready to do the work.
Teardown: Once I start, I remain in contact with you throughout the process, providing information and photos of necessary/recommended work to be done. I begin by tearing your piece down and documenting the parts to determine what can be reused and what must be replaced. I inform you of any adjustments to the initial estimate based on these findings.
Re-upholstery: I reconstruct the internal upholstery (webbing, hand tied springs, padding, etc.), touch up scuffs and scratches on the frame, polish the frame (if desired) and add the external coverings and any requested embellishments. Payment is due in full upon completion of the work.
Please note: As I don't have room to store pieces in my shop, your furniture must be taken/returned home within 10 days of completion unless other arrangements have been agreed upon in advance. **
After that, we're done!! (Until next time...)
You are now the proud owner of a bespoke piece to treasure and pass down for years to come!
** A storage fee of $25 per day will be charged for every day beyond 10 days after completion.
