Key points

Last updated: July 2026

When a venue's banquettes look tired but the frames are sound, recovering is faster and far cheaper than replacing. We strip back, renew the foam and recover in whatever fabric the room calls for.

Good to know

Common questions

Is it cheaper to reupholster banquettes than replace them?

Almost always, if the frames are structurally sound. Recovering over an existing frame skips the tear-out and rebuild, so you pay for foam, fabric and labour rather than a whole new fit-out.

Can you recover banquettes without closing the venue?

Yes. We stage the work around your trading, take sections at a time or work overnight where needed, so the venue keeps running.

Do you use fire-grade foam and commercial fabric?

Yes, genuine fire-grade foam and commercial-grade fabric and vinyl, meeting whatever compliance your venue needs.

Can you match our existing fabric or brand colours?

Yes, we help you choose from commercial ranges and match the room, the brand or the existing seating as closely as the fabric allows.

Do you cover all of Melbourne?

Yes, all of Melbourne from our Eltham workshop, with pickup and delivery or on-site work by arrangement.

What does it cost to reupholster banquette seating?

We quote per run rather than per seat, because the number that matters is how many linear metres of banquette you have and what is happening underneath it. A straight run that only needs recovering is a different job to one where the ply has swollen, the foam has collapsed at the ends where people slide in, or the base framing has worked loose. Send photos of the run end to end plus a close up of any split seams or soft spots, and we come back with a written quote that separates labour from materials so you can see what is driving the figure. Quoting is free.

How long will my venue be out of action?

Usually it is not, because we stage the work in sections. We take one run or one bank of seating at a time, so the rest of the room keeps trading while we work. If the job suits it we come in before or after service rather than during. The honest variable is fabric or vinyl lead time, which is what sets the start date more than our bench does. We give you a schedule with the quote and we work to it.

Do you take the seating away or work on site?

Both, depending on what the job needs. Fixed banquettes that are built into the wall get done on site. Loose bases, backs and squabs that can be lifted out come back to the Eltham North workshop where we can do a better job of them on the bench, then go back in. If pieces are close by and one person can shift them we usually just handle it ourselves. For larger runs we arrange a carrier and that gets quoted with the job so it is not a surprise at the end.

Recent work

New builds and repairs

Zubar, Ringwood

A new fit-out with no off the shelf option that suited, so the banquettes were built to measure in an Austex embossed vinyl chosen by their fit-out lead, top stitched all round.

Grand Hotel, Warrandyte

Several banquette seats had broken through and were repaired rather than replaced, alongside a refresh of the bar stools and drop in seats. Not every banquette job is a rebuild, and we will tell you when a repair is the right call.
