Commonly asked questions:

Upholstery costs vary depending on the type of furniture, level of restoration required, and fabric selection. Antique pieces often require additional structural work such as frame repairs, webbing replacement, or traditional padding rebuilds.

​

​

To receive a quote, simply email or text us clear photos of your furniture along with your suburb, and we’ll assess the most suitable restoration approach.

Yes, absolutely.

​

We specialise in antique chair restoration and traditional upholstery, and regularly restore:

• dining chairs

• barley twist chairs

• armchairs

• occasional chairs

• chaise lounges

• heritage and family heirloom seating

 

Most antique and vintage chairs can be successfully restored and reupholstered while preserving their original character and strength.

​

• Do you supply fabric or can I choose my own?

​

We offer both options.

 

We can assist you in selecting high-quality upholstery fabrics from trusted suppliers such as:

• Warwick Fabrics

• Wortley Fabrics

 

Alternatively, you are very welcome to supply your own fabric, and we’re happy to advise whether it is suitable for upholstery use.

​

• Do you collect furniture from Brisbane homes?

​

Yes — we provide pickup and delivery services across Brisbane and South East Queensland.

Your furniture can be safely collected from your home, transported to our workshop in Esk for restoration, and delivered back once completed.

 

This makes the restoration process simple and convenient for our Brisbane clients 🚚

​

• Do you restore antique furniture as well as upholster it?

​

Yes. Unlike many upholstery services, KLP Restorations specialises in both timber restoration and upholstery, allowing us to complete full furniture restorations in-house.

 

This includes:

• frame repairs

• re-gluing

• veneer repairs

• strip and polish work

• colour matching

• traditional upholstery rebuilding

 

This ensures your piece is restored properly, not just recovered.
