Kimberley notes on supplies & care
Kimberley has a limited range of foam and fabric locally, so many people order upholstery fabric, leather and specialist supplies like horsehair or coir from Bloemfontein or Johannesburg. Foam can usually be cut to size in town. Dust makes upholstery cleaning a regular job, and extraction machines can be hired for a weekend, though they are not suitable for antique pieces with traditional stuffing.
Kimberley: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Kimberley's diamond rush left behind a town of old houses, and their furniture is the most interesting upholstery work for many kilometres. Victorian and Edwardian homes in Belgravia and Beaconsfield, with corrugated iron roofs and wide stoeps, still hold horsehair-stuffed armchairs, button-back chaises and dining sets on ball and claw feet that need careful restoration rather than a quick recover. Hadison Park and the newer suburbs bring lounge suites and headboards, Galeshewe and Roodepan have home upholsterers recovering couches, and farms out towards Ritchie and Barkly West send bakkie seats and stoep benches. Workshops are few, so fabric and foam often come from Bloemfontein or Johannesburg. The dry heat and dust are hard on leather and fabric.
Who asks for upholstery cleaning machine hire around Kimberley, most often first:
- Homeowners and tenants: a weekend hire to clean the family couch, kids' mattresses and lounge carpets
- Churches, schools and halls: church halls and schools cleaning pew cushions and hall chairs over a weekend
- Car, bakkie and taxi owners: cloth car seats, bakkie seats and carpets cleaned at home before selling
