Recover the whole run, or change the room entirely
Booths, banquettes, bar stools and lounge seating stripped back and recovered for New York clubs — on your dark nights, and mostly without the piece leaving the room.
Repair one panel, recover the run, or change the look
How far the failure has spread decides this, not how bad the worst seat looks.
Localized damage
One seat is split and the rest of the run is sound. We replace that panel and blend it into its neighbours, which is repair work, not reupholstery.
Extensive wear
The topcoat has crazed across every seat in the row. Once the cover is failing everywhere, patching keeps costing you and recovering stops it.
A new look
Nothing has failed. The room is being rebranded, and the seating has to come back in a different colour and a different material.
What we reupholster
Clubs order the run, not the seat — a VIP row, a whole banquette wall, every stool at the bar, priced and scheduled as one bulk job.
What the old cover has been hiding
Once the cover is off, the foam and the support deck are visible for the first time in years. That is when the real condition of a seat shows up.
Foam that has bottomed out
Foam under a bottle-service seat compresses flat and stops springing back. Nothing you do to the cover fixes a seat that has gone hard.
The support deck
Under the foam sit webbing and springs. Slack straps let the seat sag in the middle long before the cover looks worn.
Rebuilt, then recovered
Both get put right while the cover is off — including high-density foam where the old block is dead.
Same frame, same room, new cover
Left is the seat as we found it. Right is the same piece once the old cover came off.
Materials built for nightlife
Denim dye, spilled sugar and a closing crew with solvent decide this, not the swatch book.
Commercial vinyl
The default for high-turn booths: wipes clean, takes solvent and holds colour under LED. See the material.
Genuine leather
Used where guests put their hands: bottle-service seating, club chairs and the top roll.
Faux leather
Reads as leather at arm’s length and costs less across a full run. See the material.
Performance velvet
Deep colour under coloured light, with a cleanable backing behind the pile.
Performance fabric
Solution-dyed and woven, for backs and wall panels that never take a spill. See the material.
Custom and designer goods
Your designer’s specified material, run through the same wear checks as ours.
Tufting, channels or plain — decided at the pattern stage
The frame does not dictate the look. Deep buttoning holds spills in the wells; smooth panels wipe down fastest at close.
Colour changes, phased runs and what drives the price
We are rebranding. Can the seating come back in a different colour?
Yes, and it is the cheapest way to change a room. The frames, the springs and usually the foam stay where they are; only the cover changes, so a black VIP row can come back emerald or burgundy without buying new furniture. We match the colour to a sample, a paint chip or your brand spec, then check it under your own lights before the run is cut.
Can you build new booths to match the ones we are recovering?
Yes. Where a room has gained a corner or lost a unit, we build the new piece to the same dimensions, pattern and material as the run being recovered, and cut both from the same lot so they read as one set. Send the floor plan with the quote request and we will price the new build and the recover together.
Can we recover half the booths now and the rest next quarter?
Yes, and phased runs are common. The risk is the batch: vinyl and leather are dyed in lots, and a lot bought months later can read differently under coloured light. We record the exact spec at the first quote and, where the maker allows it, reserve material for the later phase so both halves come from the same run.
What decides the price of recovering a whole run?
Yardage first, then pattern. A tufted curved banquette eats more material and far more labour than a straight wall bench of the same length. After that it is foam condition, whether the piece is bolted down or loose, and how many dark nights we get. Runs are quoted as one volume job rather than seat by seat.
Show us the whole run, not the worst seat
Photograph the row end to end, then one close-up of the seat that is furthest gone. That is enough to price the job and to tell you whether it is a repair, a recover, or a colour change.
