Sandton notes on supplies & care
Designers and decorators working in Sandton homes source upholstery fabric, leather hides and faux leather from showrooms and fabric houses in the northern suburbs, often by sample before ordering. Cushion covers made to size for scatter cushions and outdoor loungers are popular in Hyde Park and Bryanston gardens. Upholstery cleaning for pale linen and velvet couches is booked before entertaining season, and leather conditioning matters in sunny lounges.
Sandton: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Office towers and hotels around the Sandton CBD keep commercial upholsterers busy all year: boardroom chairs, hotel headboards and lounge chairs, reception couches and restaurant banquettes, often done after hours so a floor or dining room is never empty for long. Contract work like this means asking about fire-retardant fabric and contract-grade rub counts. In the homes of Bryanston, Hyde Park and Morningside, large lounges hold good furniture, from deep-buttoned Chesterfields to linen-covered sectionals, that owners prefer to recover. Workshops serving Sandton sit in Wynberg next to Alexandra, in Kramerville and in the Strijdom Park area, and Alexandra has its own home workshops. Expect to be asked for photos and measurements before anyone visits.
