Why Templestowe chooses us
Local to Templestowe
Templestowe sits just south-east of our Eltham North workshop, across the Yarra, making it one of the closest suburbs we serve. Pickup and delivery is easy to arrange, and your furniture is recovered, repaired or restored by hand only a short drive away.
Right beside us we also cover Doncaster and Eltham across the river, along with Bulleen and Templestowe Lower.
Worth knowing
Upholstery quotes around Templestowe can vary a lot for what sounds like the same job. The difference is nearly always in what happens under the fabric.
A proper reupholstery job strips the piece back to the frame, repairs and reglues the joints, replaces tired webbing and springs, renews the foam with quality high-resilience Dunlop foam, and only then fits the new cover, cut and sewn to the piece. A cheap job pulls new fabric over old failing foundations, and it looks fine right up until it does not. And if you are not happy with an aspect of a job you have already had done, foam that has gone soft too soon, webbing that was not right for the piece, a chair that is still wobbly, we can usually put it right without any fuss. And when we are asked to match a much cheaper quote, we will always be straight about why we cannot: some quotes are lower than what quality materials alone cost at wholesale, and the difference has to come from somewhere.
Whoever you choose, ask to see before and after photos of recent work, ask what happens beneath the fabric, and ask how long they stand behind it. Good work has nothing to hide. There is more in our guide on how to choose an upholsterer.
Templestowe questions
Yes, and being just across the river in Eltham North, it's a quick pickup. We collect and deliver to Templestowe by arrangement. Our base is a working workshop rather than a showroom, and your piece is recovered and restored there before we bring it back.
It depends on the piece, the fabric you choose and how much the frame needs, so we don't quote a single fixed time. Once we've seen your photos we'll give you a realistic turnaround with the price. Every Templestowe job is done properly in our own workshop, never rushed.

Because not every quote covers the same work. A thorough quote includes stripping the piece to the frame, repairing joints, renewing webbing, springs and foam, and a properly cut and sewn cover. A cheaper quote often skips what is under the fabric. Ask what is included and compare like with like.
Usually, yes. Maybe the foam has gone soft too soon, the wrong webbing was used, the cover is not sitting right, or a chair is still wobbly. Whatever it is, send a photo and we will tell you honestly what it needs and how to put it right. There is more in our guide on putting a reupholstery job right.
