Re-upholstery techniques


Talking Down, Springing, Padding, Deep Buttoning...

There are many processes involved in traditional re-upholstery techniques from the basics of pin stuffing to the complex, such as deep buttoning. All techniques covered in this section give an overview of the most common we use.

As different styles of furniture require different techniques we cannot always guarantee what will be used on your furniture. The first technique, which is performed on every piece we re-upholster, is ‘talking down’ and inspecting the frame.

During this processes we can identify what needs to be done to restore your furniture to its former glory. Re-springing, for example, is not always necessary depending on the condition of the springs. On the other hand, we may need to repair parts of the frame such as loose joints.

It is not always clear at first glance what processes will be carried out which is why this extensive inspection is done. However we can guarantee that whatever needs repairing, will be expertly carried out.
