Pricing Options
Labor Prices are generally based upon:
- Condition: How good of shape the furniture is in. Is the frame solid? Are the Springs in good conditions? What condition is the padding in?
- The Style: Is it a plain simple style or is it more complicated, such as, does it have attached pillow arms, lots of buttons, channels on the inside back or arms.
- Service Option Chosen: Basic Upholstery, Deluxe Upholstery, etc. (see below)
Basic Upholstery
The basic cost upholstery service is a good choice for most simple furniture that is in good condition and just needs the cover changed. This service involves taking the old cover off the furniture, adding padding as needed, and putting on the new cover. If you desire more than a cover change, or if your furniture is more complicated, other options are also available.
Deluxe Upholstery
The many options of the Deluxe Upholstery can be customized to your needs and desires. After the cover is off, we do an inspection of the condition, quality, type of your frame, springs, and padding. We notify you if find that additional work needs to be done.
The cost varies according to several factors, including how many extra options and supplies are ordered, and how much work needs to be done. Choose from among the various options:
- Retie or replace seat springs
- Tighten joints
- Replace all support linings.
- Use same padding, but add more
- Replace all padding
- Match patterns
- Alter or repair the frame
- Custom fit to your size
Pricing: Estimate and Work Order
We strive to give an accurate price quote before we start any job. Prior to writing an estimate, we carefully inspect the condition of the furniture, assess the suitability and affects of the chosen fabric, present our findings, suggest possible choices, and ask about your concerns and expectations. Based upon this interaction, we try to clearly specify, on our estimate or work order, the services and materials that we will supply, and the associated charges for each of these. If we suspect that extra work or additional materials may be necessary, we also note this on the work order.
Before we begin your job, we write out a detailed work order, specifying what we will do, and the associated charges for each item, as shown in Figure 2.
No costs will be added without your prior approval. Similarly, if the you request changes, before proceeding with the work, we will assess what additional work or supplies that may be needed and then discuss any price changes with you.
