How the Process Works for Antique Pieces

When you bring an antique item to Gus’s Upholstery, the team evaluates the frame, springs, padding, and fabric. You’ll discuss:

  • Whether the goal is strict period accuracy or a more modern update
  • Fabric durability based on where the piece will live in your home
  • Any required structural repairs before new upholstery is applied

From there, Gus’s Upholstery creates a work plan that respects original craftsmanship while addressing sagging cushions, loose joints, or worn-out coverings. The shop communicates clearly about options so clients can prioritize what matters—appearance, comfort, longevity, or historical detail.
