The choice of furniture used in your commercial establishment can either make or break the overall look of the space, as well as impacting on the customer’s experience. Whether you’re after a bustling bistro feel or an elegant Parisian bar, we at Trent Furniture have just the selection for you.
But what about when your stacking chairs are sagging more and more with every sit-down? Or when your mid-century vinyl barstools are looking rather worse for wear? Trent Furniture can help there too! Read on to discover the benefits of re-upholstering your commercial furniture, and how our team of experts can help.
A sustainability win
Arguably the most pressing argument for re-upholstering rather than throwing away old furniture is the significant impact it has on our planet. Landfill sites are a huge contributor to rising pollution levels – the rubbish buried in them not only decomposes at a notoriously slow rate, but further releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Incinerators pose a similar problem of emitting noxious gases, and in turn contributing massively to global warming. Ensuring that furniture of a high quality isn’t needlessly sent to landfill is more important now than ever, and by using our re-upholstering services, you can feel safe in the knowledge that by making the eco-friendly choice you are doing your part to help waste reduction.
Maintaining your firm favourites
Got a particularly sentimental piece you’d like to keep hold of? Or a unique find that would be impossible to replace? There’s no need to say goodbye to them – as long as their frames are structurally sound enough, re-upholstering will be an option. If the frame of a piece has significant damage, then strengthening these areas will of course incur an extra cost, but sometimes it’s worth it for those special products! Similarly, if your pieces just need a refresh after years of use, your chairs can be refitted with high-quality foam to avoid the dreading sinking when sitting. Any problem points can also be reinforced, for example extra back support can be taken into consideration when re-upholstering if this is something your customers would benefit from. If you’re happy with the current style of your furniture but they are showing signs of wear such as staining and fading, we can identify the fabric that is closest to the original, or you can get in touch to discuss using your own supplied fabric.
New look, same quality piece
If your establishment is in need of a new look, then there’s no need to replace perfectly sound chairs that simply have an outdated feel. Re-upholstering the pieces you already own gives you total design control over the new style – it can be as easy as changing to a brighter colour for a bold revamp, or as complex as choosing a whole new fabric type.
Investing in quality furniture
Something we often hear is that paying to have your furniture re-upholstered can seem like an expensive route – why not just buy a replacement? Our answer is that if your furniture can be bought and replaced very cheaply, then it will cost more to re-upholster it, there’s no denying. However, with buying cheap furniture comes the inevitable aftermath of poorly made pieces not lasting very long. If your furniture is sturdy and of a high quality, then we believe it’s always worthwhile to enquire into professional re-upholstering. As we’ve already mentioned, the furniture industry and its consumers need to do all they can to help save pieces from going to landfill; giving your tired pieces a new lease of life is an amazing way to do so!
