Frames Re-Upholstery
In our upholstery workshop, we are proud to have the unique skill of producing one of a kind and fully-customized furniture not only in fabric but starting with the essential part – the frame. This personalized approach enables us to provide unmatched design and functionality, especially due to close cooperation with well-established frame makers such as Frank Chervan. Being synonymous with unprecedented strength and flexibility in customization options, Frank Chervan frames are a natural fit for our exclusive furniture pieces.
In collaboration with our artisans, we engage with the preferences of every customer, step-by-step beginning from the first blueprints to ensure that their ideas come into being. Whether you wish to make a one-of-a-kind furniture piece that becomes a focal point for your room or need some matching furniture that would fit ideally into your style and functionality preferences in order to furnish your home, our team leaves no stone unturned while paying attention even to the minutest details. By making sure we combine these top-notch frames with our vast choice of fabrics and finishes, we will give you furniture that not only appears stunning but also endures time itself.
Why the Frame Matters in Upholstery
The quality of your furniture’s frame affects more than just appearance, it’s what ensures your investment lasts for years to come. A poorly built frame can sag, creak, or warp under pressure, regardless of how nice the fabric or foam may be. That’s why our team focuses on using premium materials and proven joinery methods when crafting or restoring every piece.
Whether you’re restoring a family heirloom, replacing broken seating in a commercial space, or designing something entirely new, the frame is the first and most critical component to get right.
Frequently asked questions
Can you change the dimensions of my existing furniture frame?
Yes, we can modify key aspects of your current frame – including seat depth, back height, arm width, and overall proportions. Whether you want your sofa to sit deeper, your chair to feel more supportive, or your bench to fit a specific space, we tailor the frame to your comfort and spatial needs.
Do you build fully custom upholstered furniture from the frame up?
Absolutely. Our team specializes in building one-of-a-kind upholstered pieces entirely from scratch. We design and construct custom frames based on your specifications, then add premium foam and fabric to bring your vision to life. From modern silhouettes to vintage-inspired forms, every piece is made to measure.
What types of materials do you use for custom frame construction?
We use only high-quality materials, including kiln-dried hardwoods, plywood seat platforms, corner blocking, and industrial-grade adhesives. Unlike mass-produced furniture, our custom frames are built to last for decades, not just a few years.
Can you design and build furniture to match a specific style or aesthetic?
Yes. Whether you’re looking to replicate a vintage piece, match a design from a mood board, or create something entirely original, we work closely with you (or your designer) to bring the style and proportions you envision to life, from frame to finished fabric.
Do you build or modify frames for commercial projects like restaurants or hotels?
Yes. We construct and reinforce frames for high-traffic commercial environments, including banquettes, booths, benches, and lounge seating. All our commercial-grade frames are built for long-term durability and daily use, and we can coordinate directly with project managers or interior designers.
Can you modify antique or vintage furniture frames?
We do this often. Our craftsmen can carefully reinforce or alter antique frames to update comfort and stability while preserving the character of the original piece. We can also adjust dimensions or strengthen older joints to modernize the functionality.
What’s the difference between a custom frame and store-bought furniture?
Custom-built frames are tailored to your body, space, and design preferences. They use stronger materials and superior joinery techniques compared to mass-produced furniture. You get better comfort, longevity, and design control, without the compromises of off-the-shelf options.
Do you offer consultations for new custom frame projects?
Yes. We offer in-person consultations at our upholstery shop in Jacksonville, where we’ll go over your needs, measure your space (or old furniture), and help you decide on frame dimensions, materials, and upholstery options.
Which areas do you serve for custom frame upholstery and furniture builds?
We proudly serve clients throughout Duval and St. Johns Counties, including Jacksonville, Ponte Vedra, Nocatee, St. Augustine, and nearby communities. We also work with designers and businesses on regional projects throughout Northeast Florida.
