Fabric and foam are sold locally and brought in from Cape Town or Gqeberha. For damp homes, choose mould-resistant fabric and quick-dry foam for outdoor pieces. Upholsterers in George often help DIYers with foam cut to size and offcuts of fabric. Upholstery cleaners deal with mould after wet spells, and extraction machines can be rented for a weekend.
George: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Retirees who moved to the Garden Route with their best furniture keep upholsterers in George well booked. Wingbacks, recliners and dining sets from homes in Heatherlands, King George Park and the golf estates come in for new foam and fabric, and many people choose to recover pieces they brought from elsewhere. Holiday houses in Wilderness and Herold's Bay need outdoor cushions and tough covers, while boats on the Knysna lagoon and at Mossel Bay harbour need marine vinyl. Farms on the Outeniqua slopes send bakkie and tractor seats. Families in Pacaltsdorp and Thembalethu recover lounge suites. Rain falls in every season, so mould and damp foam are frequent problems.
The requests we see from George usually come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: a family couch, dining chair seats or a headboard in a colour that suits the lounge
- Boats, caravans and 4x4s: solution-dyed outdoor fabric for caravan dinettes, boat cushions and game lodge loungers
- Restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges: high rub count, fire-retardant cloth for guesthouse lounges, restaurant booths and bar stools
