Supplies & care in Pretoria: local notes
Fabric and foam suppliers in Silverton and Pretoria West cut foam to size and sell webbing, springs, hessian and staples to the many small workshops in the city. DIYers recovering dining chair seats in Montana or Akasia usually need about half a metre per seat pad. Upholstery cleaning is booked by landlords in Hatfield and Sunnyside between tenants, and extraction machine hire is a common weekend job for family couches in the east.
Pretoria: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Government is a large upholstery client in Pretoria. Departments, the metro and the embassies around Arcadia and Waterkloof send boardroom chairs, waiting room benches and reception lounge seats for recovering, usually through a written quote request with an order number. The other big source of work is old Pretoria itself: houses in Brooklyn, Muckleneuk, Arcadia and Villieria full of imbuia dining sets, riempie benches and Cape Dutch pieces handed down through families. Upholstery in Pretoria is spread across Silverton, Pretoria West and Pretoria North workshops, with trimmers near the vehicle plants at Rosslyn and home workshops in Mamelodi and Atteridgeville. Afternoon storms in summer mean you should keep a collected couch covered on the bakkie.
Typical cushion covers requests in the area come from:
- Churches, schools and halls: hard-wearing covers for church pew cushions and school library seating
- Homeowners and tenants: new scatter cushion covers and couch seat covers to refresh a lounge without recovering
- Offices and businesses: durable covers for reception couch cushions and breakaway room seating
