What does an upholstery workshop do?
An upholstery workshop renews the upholstery of furniture and, where necessary, repairs the underlying structure. This includes replacing fabric or leather, as well as improving seating comfort. Many customers immediately notice the difference: a familiar piece of furniture feels like new again.
- Upholstering a sofa in Nijmegen: from a 2-seater to a corner sofa, including finish and details.
- Re-upholstering chairs in Nijmegen: dining chairs, bucket chairs, bar stools and (sometimes) office chairs.
- Re-upholstering an armchair: new upholstery and often also comfort restoration.
- Filling and support: refilling cushions, replacing foam, repairing webbing/springs.
- Leatherwork: re-upholstering natural leather (depending on the furniture and wishes).
When is re-upholstering in Nijmegen a smart choice?
Re-upholstering is especially interesting if the frame is still sturdy, but the appearance or seating comfort has deteriorated. This often occurs with quality sofas and chairs that are still technically sound.
- Wear or stains: the fabric is worn, discoloured, or difficult to clean.
- Sagging cushions: the sofa is no longer comfortable or looks saggy.
- New living style: your interior changes, but your furniture is still too good to throw away.
- Emotional value: an heirloom or favourite piece of furniture that you would like to keep.
- Sustainable choice: reuse instead of replace.
Choosing fabric or leather: what to look out for?
Life in Nijmegen is busy: dinners, visitors, working from home. Therefore, the right choice depends on your use. We help you choose based on appearance and practical requirements, so that everything fits your interior custom-made.
- Durable upholstery fabric: ideal for daily use.
- Easy-clean fabrics: pleasant if meals are often eaten or with children/pets.
- Natural leather: timeless, strong, and with a luxurious appearance.
- Colour & texture: mottled fabrics are often more forgiving in terms of maintenance.
If you live in a bright home with lots of sun (for example in Nijmegen-Noord or Nijmegen-Oost), then colourfastness is extra important. In a busy household in Dukenburg or Lindenholt, ease of maintenance is often decisive.
How does the process work at an upholstery workshop?
Many people think that re-upholstering is complicated. In practice, it is often very straightforward:
- Photos and wishes: you send photos and tell us what you want (fabric/leather, colour, quantity).
- Advice and quote: you receive advice on materials and a clear price quotation.
- Upholstery: remove old upholstery, check structure, restore comfort, and re-upholster.
- Delivery: in many cases, it is ready within 2 weeks.

5 quick tips for choosing an upholstery workshop
- Ask for advice on durability: not every fabric is suitable for intensive use.
- Pay attention to the finish: fit, stitching, and details determine the quality.
- Combine projects: sofa + chairs at the same time often creates one beautiful, calm style.
- Check seating comfort: new fabric is nice, but filling makes the difference.
- Take good photos: this speeds up quoting, planning, and the end result.
