Best 15 Furniture Upholstery Shops in San Jose, CA (2024)

“

When my parents sold my childhood home and downsized to a 2-bedroom apartment, my siblings and I jumped at the chance to scoop up some of their great furniture. It’s not that I loved the style of my parents furniture - it’s all fairly traditional American/English style - but I did love the idea of having these incredibly well constructed pieces and keeping the furniture (and memories!) in our family. I ended up with a small apartment worth of furniture when all was divided up! I wasn’t quite sure where to turn as I had never bought antiques/vintage furniture that needed to be re-done. I asked for a few recommendations from a friend who is an interior designer - she gave me only one name and told me they would take care of everything for me: Revitaliste. Best recommendations I’ve ever gotten!I decided to start with my “new” dining table and chairs. The table had a lot of water marks and the leaves were a totally different color than the rest of the table as they seldom were used. Some of the chairs were a bit rickety and all of them had absolutely no padding left in the seats. The fabric was tired and dated. In other words, this dining set needed a complete makeover. Working with Revitaliste was SO easy and fun! I uploaded pictures of my table and chairs on their website and got a quote back immediately. I filled out a design questionnaire that they then used to help me figure out the best wood stain color and sheen for the protective coat as well as the fabric for the seats. I loved how they took into consideration the fact that we have young kids and love to entertain. The fabrics they suggested were all stain resistant and gorgeous!!! When we’d finally decided on all the details, they picked up the whole set and a few weeks later they return the most INCREDIBLE dining room set!! I’ve also now re-done a pair of nightstands for my daughter’s bedroom - we lacquered them a sweet light pink color. The next project up is a super cool caned bench; we’re going to replace the broken caning and make a seat cushion for it. I’m slowly but surely working my way through the remaining furniture. I love having the help of Revitaliste’s designers to guide me in making choices that work with my existing decor and that are family friendly!! It’s also incredibly helpful to be able to use one company for “revitalizing” all the furniture I got from my parents.

I've worked with Teal at SLIPS for several projects: interior bench cushions with slipcovers, three window-treatment customizations and several small projects. With a warm and friendly approach, she has helped me choose beautiful designs that fit with our lifestyle. She is very careful with fit, creating muslin models before producing the final pieces. I highly recommend SLIPS and am looking forward to redoing another room with her soon!

Belmar Upholstry in San Francisco has been my go to source for over 10 years. I can count on them to produce the highest quality of upholstered goods, all executed perfectly. I can count on these pieces to last. And to be supremely comfortable. When you use a Belmar sofa, I call it the Cadillac of seating. So comfortable! Marcus knows everything there is to know about upholstery and you can count on him to get all the details just right. I can design a very complicated piece and he will know how to make it turn out perfectly! this is the place to go for quality that LASTS!

I love, love, love working with the team at Sew Rose. I have done slipcovers, reupholstered pop out seats, cushions, pillows. They finish everything they do beautifully. They are busy, so reserve time for your projects before when you need them. But they are busy because they are good!

I have worked with Sal Beressi Fabrics for nearly 9 years. The store has the most comprehensive collection of home decor fabrics in the area. Heather and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable about what is in stock and where to find the prefect fabrics in the sample books. A huge time saver in a somewhat overwhelming store for newcomers. There is a system to the madness in thousands of sample books, and I always find what I need for my projects.

Any store can sell beautiful, quality furniture. But not all such stores have owners with talented designers, or designers who are not just trying to sell something, but genuinely interested in meeting your unique needs as the ones at Mum's. The owners and designers at Mum's have always been exceedingly helpful and patient in helping me make my furniture decisions--helping me with those decisions with their design expertise, allowing me to take home samples, making special orders and more. Even their delivery crew is incredibly careful and polite. I live in a small town and am so grateful to have the professionalism, expertise and quality furniture choices one might expect in a large city, along with the genuine friendly customer service more associated with a small town. I will always return to Mum's!

The quality of the workmanship of all of our window treatments is really excellent. Chris Bergin has been incredibly helpful in providing design expertise above and beyond just the window treatments. Their taste is impeccable.
