Supplies & care in Klerksdorp: local notes
Klerksdorp has fabric and foam suppliers who cut cushions to size and stock webbing, hessian and staples for the trade and for DIYers.

Upholstery cleaners work across town and the mining suburbs, often per seat, and machines can be hired for a weekend if your fabric tag shows W or W/S.
Klerksdorp: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Klerksdorp grew rich on gold and maize, and its older homes show it. Houses in Flamwood, Wilkoppies and Meiringspark often have heavy lounge suites, Chesterfields and dining sets bought decades ago, built on hardwood frames that are far better than anything in a chain store today, and recovering them is the main upholstery job in town. Stilfontein and Orkney have mine houses with the same kind of furniture, and the farms around Hartbeesfontein bring bakkie seats, riempie chairs and stoep benches. Jouberton, Alabama and Kanana have home upholsterers and a busy taxi trade. Workshops cluster in the industrial area and along the main roads. Winters are dry and cold, summers hot, so leather and old vinyl crack if left in the sun.
Who asks for upholstery tools around Klerksdorp, most often first:

- Upholsterers, makers, designers and DIYers: upholsterers kitting out a workshop with guns, compressors, shears and a walking-foot machine
