Potchefstroom notes on furniture reupholstery
Older homes on the oak-lined streets near the centre hold Victorian chairs, imbuia sideboards and wingbacks worth a full strip and rebuild, often with French polish on the arms. In Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park the job is a family lounge suite or a headboard to match a new bedroom. Landlords near the campus prefer couches recovered in dark faux leather or tough weaves with zipped cushion covers.
Upholstery work in Potchefstroom
Every January Potchefstroom fills with students, and their furniture is a big part of the upholstery trade. Landlords with digs and communes around the university campus and in the streets near Die Bult send worn couches, bean bags and desk chairs for new foam and tough, dark fabric before the year starts, and residence common rooms need lounge seating redone in batches. The town has an older side too: oak-lined streets with Victorian and early twentieth century houses hold antiques, wingbacks and dining sets worth restoring. Baillie Park and Van der Hoff Park bring family lounge suites, Ikageng and Promosa have home upholsterers, and the army base and farms add their own work. Dry winters crack leather, so condition it before the cold.
