A club chair stripped back to its wood frame and webbing

Whole pieces

The cover is the last thing that goes on

Lounge chairs, club chairs and sofas in a bar get dragged, leaned back on, perched on by the arm and sat in for hours. By the time the leather or vinyl has split in several places, the frame, springs and foam underneath have usually had a hard life too. Bar furniture reupholstery on this page means the whole piece: the old cover comes off, the structure is put right, and only then does the new material go on. Fixed seating such as banquettes and booths is a different job, covered on bar seating reupholstery.

FrameJoints reglued, loose rails fixed.

SupportSprings retied, webbing replaced.

FillNew foam cut to the old profile.

CoverContract material, patterned from the old panels.

What gets put right before the new cover

Stripping a piece is the one chance anyone gets to see its insides. Everything on the left is checked and fixed; everything on the right is how the new cover is made to fit.

Specification

What the new cover has to stand up to

Bar furniture reupholstery CT rooms get is only as good as the material written into it.

Abrasion

A high double-rub rating for contract seating. Household cloth wears through at the arms.

Cleanability

Spirits, citrus and sugar strip weak coatings; the cover has to take a strong wipe-down.

Flame codes

Public rooms usually need material that meets the local fire code. We specify accordingly.

Color

Sampled against the pieces staying in the room, not picked from a book.

Foam density

Firm enough to hold its edge under a full room every weekend.

Weight

Domestic-weight material in a busy bar is the one thing we will not fit.

Materials

Four covers for bar lounge furniture

Vinyl is the practical choice near the counter, full-grain leather suits a lounge where the chairs are part of the look, and performance fabric softens a room away from the spills. Faux leather is a budget option that works on pieces that are not sat in hard every night.

Check first

Sometimes it is not reupholstery at all

If the cover is intact and only one spot is damaged, it is bar furniture repair. If the material is sound but faded or patchy, it is bar furniture restoration, which keeps the original cover. Reupholstery is for material that has split, hardened or peeled in more than one place. We say which from your photos, even when the smaller job is the answer.

Questions

Bar Reupholstery FAQ

Common questions about recovering bar lounge furniture.

Is the foam replaced too?

Can we choose the material?

Yes, from contract-grade options sampled against the furniture staying in the room.

Can a recovered chair match the others in the room?

Yes. Material and color are chosen beside the pieces that are staying.
