What to know locally in Stellenbosch
Upholstery fabric and foam are sold by a few local shops and by Cape Town suppliers who deliver. For student couches, pick a high rub count fabric and washable covers. Outdoor fabric and quick-dry foam suit wine farm terraces. Upholstery cleaners are busy at the end of the academic year, and extraction machines can be rented to clean couches before a lease ends.
Stellenbosch: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Every January, student digs around Stellenbosch need couches repaired and recovered before the new academic year, and that rhythm sits alongside quieter work on the town's oldest furniture. Oak-lined streets such as Dorp Street hold Cape Dutch and Victorian houses with riempie chairs, yellowwood benches and old wingbacks that need careful restoration. Wine farm tasting rooms, restaurants and guesthouses in the valleys recover dining chairs, booths and stoep cushions before the summer season. Offices at Technopark send office chairs for repair. Families in Kayamandi, Idas Valley and Cloetesville recover lounge suites. Workshops sit in Plankenburg and in home studios, and hot summers fade fabric quickly.
The requests we see from Stellenbosch usually come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: leather hides for a Chesterfield or recliner, or faux leather for dining chair seats
- Churches, schools and halls: hard-wearing vinyl for church pews, auditorium seats and school hall chairs
- Restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges: wipe-clean vinyl for restaurant booths and bar stools, hide for a lodge lounge
