Upholstery work in Germiston
Factories, rail yards and truck depots give Germiston a different upholstery list from most of Gauteng. Wadeville, Isando and the Germiston industrial area are full of businesses with truck cab seats, forklift and machine operator seats, canteen benches and office chairs that wear out on shift work, and trimmers here are used to fleet jobs. The homes add their own mix: older houses in Primrose, Lambton and Elsburg with lounge suites worth recovering, and larger homes in Bedfordview with leather couches and dining sets. Victoria Lake brings rowing and small boats. Industrial upholsterers often quote per seat for a fleet, so ask whether work can be done at your depot to keep vehicles running.
