Commercial Upholstery Is Our Wheelhouse!

Posted on 2nd December 2020 at 17:35

We may be a small company, but that doesn't mean that we only take small jobs! As part of our repertoire of services, we offer commercial reupholstering services and this is just one example of the many jobs that we've taken on recently. This local Arena has a bar in it's upper levels that was in dire need of revamping, so they came to us to completely reupholster their 11 booths! Because these booths were all custom made (and therefore slightly different), they needed a company that could bring them custom made backrests and seat cushions that would match the existing framework; that's where Naples Canvas & Upholstery came in! Our expert designers came in and offered a solution that was of higher quality and easier to remove for future repairs!

If your business needs seating that could use an update, call Naples Canvas & Upholstery! We Got You Covered!

The original cushions were permanently stapled to the frame of the booth, which made it impossible to completely and cleanly remove them to be repaired.

Once the cushions were removed, we needed to remove every single leftover staple and strip of fabric that was left behind when the original cushions were removed.

With all that done, it was time to get to work creating new backrests from scratch.

We took 2 sheets of flexible boards and glued them together and temporarily fixed them to the back of the frame. Once dried, they were perfectly formed for each individual booth.

Now that all the backs were glued and dried in their new curved forms, they were removed and taken back to the shop to be upholstered. Those holes cut out are a callback to our expertise in marine upholstery; they are where the hooks that the backrests will hang upon will eventually go.
