Master’s Touch Upholstery

The easiest way to start is to send us a few photos of your piece along with a short description of what you’d like done. We’ll be in touch with a no-obligation estimate as soon as we can. You can also reach us at (707) 578-9495 or mtu468@gmail.com.

No. We don’t take automotive upholstery of any kind. Vehicle work brings grease, oil, and road dirt into a workshop that handles fine fabrics and customers’ own furniture, and keeping the two apart needs a separate facility we don’t have. We’re asked this often, so it’s worth saying plainly before you call.

Yes, we sell fabric — it’s a big part of what we do, and it’s usually more affordable than buying yardage elsewhere. Our Santa Rosa showroom carries sample books from the major upholstery mills, and we hold trade accounts with the fabric houses, so we can order almost anything we don’t stock and have a sample sent to you. Most customers choose their fabric with us as part of the job.

Age is usually the fastest tell. Furniture built a decade or more ago was typically framed in hardwood, not particle board, and is worth rebuilding — the quality of what’s mass-produced now is nowhere close. If a piece has a solid frame, comfortable proportions, or sentimental value, reupholstery almost always beats replacing it. If it’s only two or three years old, it’s rarely worth the cost, because you’d be replacing the replacement in another few years. Send us a photo with the age of the piece and we’ll give you an honest recommendation.

Every project is different. Cost depends on the size and construction of the piece, the work involved (foam, springs, or frame repair), and the fabric you choose. Send photos and we’ll prepare a detailed, no-obligation estimate before any work begins.

Yes, on loose cushions — that’s often the cheapest way to make a piece comfortable again, and it doesn’t need new fabric. Attached cushions are a different story: we have to un-upholster the piece to reach the foam and re-upholster it afterwards, which is labor-intensive and usually isn’t worth it on newer furniture where the fabric is already close to worn out. We use high-resilient foam from a specialist supplier rather than the low-grade foam fitted to most new furniture, so cushions hold their shape for years rather than months.

Almost always we’d rather quote the fabric through our trade accounts — the Santa Rosa showroom carries sample books from the major upholstery mills, and if you already have something in mind we can usually order it at trade pricing, sample first. If you’d still like to supply your own yardage, that’s fine, though it comes with a COM (customer’s own material) surcharge of 20% on the labor because selling fabric is part of how the workshop stays open.

Yes. We regularly restore antiques, family heirlooms, and older well-built furniture, preserving the character of the piece while renewing the upholstered components.

Master’s Touch Upholstery carries a broad selection of designer upholstery fabrics, including lines from Kravet, Pindler, Fabricut, Schumacher, and Sunbrella, in a wide range of colors, textures, patterns, and performance options. We’ll help you choose a fabric suited to how the piece will be used.

Yes. We reupholster restaurant booths, banquettes, office and lobby seating, and other commercial furnishings in contract-grade fabrics built for heavy, everyday use.
