How much fabric do i need and where do i buy it?
Yardage depends on the pattern and the direction of the fabric. Below is a picture chart for average yardage needs for fabric and leather. (One hide of leather is equal to approx. 50 sf, but keep in mind that real leather hides have flaws and don't have right angles so you will need more leather to compensate for these factors.)
OKC Vintage Upholstery offers fabrics and have lots of samples to look through. I am willing to shop and source just the right fabric for you. If purchasing fabric on your own I recommend at least a medium weight upholstery grade fabric and to order a sample before purchasing any fabric online.

How long does it take to complete a job?
Each job is very different and sometimes it can take longer than a big shop however I'm usually not as backed up as a big shop so I can usually complete a large job within 2-3 weeks of arrival.
Can broken/damaged frames, springs and cushioning be repaired?
Usually general wear and tear can be repaired or replaced. However, newly built furniture (anything made after 2000) once broken can't be repaired. All repairs will be discussed. Most all repairs cannot be made on location and will need to be brought to the shop.
If you are looking at a piece of furniture to purchase second hand look at the frame and make sure it is solid wood, not pressed, particle, or yes even cardboard.

Staining and painting??
If you would like a change to the color of the exposed frame I can help. If you would like to make those changes yourself I will work with you. If you have started a job and can't seem to find the time to finish it, I'll work with you!
Keep in mind if you want a different stain you can always go with a darker stain, not lighter. I have several paints and stains to choose from but you are also welcome to bring me what you have.
