BEFORE
AFTER
Preparation
First, we must remove all the old fabric from the furniture. This allows us to examine the framework. At this point we analize:
- The Springs
- The Joints in the Frame
- The Padding
If repairs are needed, we take care of them right away. Re-gluing the joints in the frame are done with clamps, staples and high quality glues.
Springs are retied using the old fashioned "8-way hand tying. This is the highest quality and most durable repair for the springs.
The padding is evaluated to determine if new foam is needed. In some cases it is just of matter of steaming out the old foam and bringing it back to it's original quality. If the foam does not bounce back, we replace it, using the highest quality foam.
Arm caps that are fitted to not fall off are a Doc's signature for long lasting wear of your furniture. Note: If there is fabric left over, you may get a free pillow or two as a bonus.
Restyling
Restyling comes in many variables. We can:
- Restyle the Frame
- Restyle the Upholstery
- Restyle the Arms
- Add Buttons
- Add a Costume or Pleated Skirt
- Change the Wood Finish
- Restyle the Legs
- Add Fringe
- Restyle the Design of the Furniture
- Bring up to date by Changing Cushion or Add a Welt Cording
Recovering:
With over 30 years of craftsmanship, we take great pride in adding new life back into your quality furniture. All seams are carefully tailored, all patterns in the fabric are lined up with the backs, seats and decks. This creates a beautiful, designer look to your furniture. When we are done, you are left with a "new" piece of furniture with old quality construction.
