Sandton notes on furniture reupholstery
Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside homes often hold quality pieces, deep-buttoned Chesterfields, leather club chairs and wide sectionals, that are worth recovering in velvet, linen or full grain leather. Older Illovo and Inanda houses bring antiques that need restoration and regluing before new covers go on. In Alexandra, lounge suites and dining chairs are recovered by local home workshops that know the streets and can carry pieces up narrow stairs.
Sandton: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Office towers and hotels around the Sandton CBD keep commercial upholsterers busy all year: boardroom chairs, hotel headboards and lounge chairs, reception couches and restaurant banquettes, often done after hours so a floor or dining room is never empty for long. Contract work like this means asking about fire-retardant fabric and contract-grade rub counts. In the homes of Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside, large lounges hold good furniture, from deep-buttoned Chesterfields to linen-covered sectionals, that owners prefer to recover. Workshops serving Sandton sit in Wynberg next to Alexandra, in Kramerville and in the Strijdom Park area, and Alexandra has its own home workshops. Expect to be asked for photos and measurements before anyone visits.
Typical couch repairs requests in the area come from:
- Restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges: lodge and guesthouse couches with broken webbing fixed between bookings without new covers
- Homeowners and tenants: a sagging family couch, a wobbly leg or a recliner that no longer closes properly
- Clinics, salons, spas and gyms: clinic and salon waiting couches with split seams and soft seats repaired
