KwaZulu-Natal notes on furniture reupholstery
Older homes in Morningside, Glenwood and Westville hold teak and imbuia lounge suites and wingbacks that suit a full rebuild, and Pietermaritzburg's Victorian houses in Scottsville and Clarendon bring antiques for restoration. Newer estates in Umhlanga, Ballito and Hillcrest ask for corner couches, headboards and dining chairs in performance fabric. In Umlazi, KwaMashu and Inanda, families recover lounge suites and fix sagging springs ahead of weddings and umemulo celebrations.
KwaZulu-Natal: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Humidity is the enemy of upholstery along this coast. Salt air rusts staples and springs inside couches, cushions in closed holiday flats grow mould and leather left in a damp room goes spotty, so materials and care matter as much as the cover. Durban has a big upholstery trade, with workshops in Pinetown, Jacobs, Mobeni and Springfield Park and fabric shops in the city centre, while Pietermaritzburg, Richards Bay and Newcastle serve their own regions. Holiday homes from Ballito to Port Shepstone need patio and boat cushions, ski boats launch off the beaches, and hotels and restaurants on the beachfront recover booths and lounge chairs. Taxis and bakkies keep motor trimmers in every town working through the year.
