Mthatha notes on furniture reupholstery
New homes in Northcrest, Fort Gale, Southernwood and Ikwezi often have big lounge suites and dining sets that need recovering or repairs after a move. Families in villages around Libode, Mqanduli and Qunu recover couches and wooden chairs for gatherings and ceremonies, and buttoned headboards are a popular order. Ask the upholsterer to check frames and springs, since long trips on rough roads loosen joints and break webbing.
Upholstery work in Mthatha
New homes are going up all around Mthatha, from suburbs such as Northcrest and Fort Gale to large family homesteads in the surrounding villages, and each one needs a lounge suite, dining chairs and a bedroom set. That growth keeps upholsterers busy recovering and repairing rather than replacing furniture that has travelled long distances. The university, the academic hospital and government offices send office chairs, ward seating and boardroom chairs. Taxis are a big part of local life, so taxi bench and seat cover work is steady. Most upholsterers work from small workshops in town or from home, and fabric and foam often come from East London or Durban.
