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.
Typical upholstery fabric requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: a family couch, dining chair seats or a headboard in a colour that suits the lounge
- Churches, schools and halls: durable fabric by the roll for church pew cushions, school halls and theatre seats
- Restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges: high rub count, fire-retardant cloth for guesthouse lounges, restaurant booths and bar stools
