Cyndie Lund
With more than two decades of hands-on experience, Gomez Upholstery has refined the art of furniture reupholstery and restoration to a science. Our team has worked on thousands of projects across the St. Louis region — from delicate Victorian settees found in Soulard antique shops to modern sectionals in brand-new Clayton condominiums. Every stitch, tuck, and cut is executed with precision that only comes from years of dedicated practice.
Furniture reupholstery is one of the smartest investments a homeowner or business can make. Quality furniture frames — especially in older, well-built pieces — often outlast their fabric by decades. Reupholstering preserves that original craftsmanship, sentimental value, and structural integrity while delivering a completely refreshed look at a fraction of the cost of new furniture. It’s also the more sustainable choice: every piece restored is one less piece headed to a landfill.
Choosing the right material is just as important as the craftsmanship itself. We maintain an unrivaled selection of premium designer textiles and leathers — including performance fabrics that resist stains, fading, and wear; genuine and synthetic leathers in a full range of colors and finishes; and specialty materials for marine, commercial, and antique applications. During your consultation, we’ll guide you through our extensive in-shop library to find the perfect match for your lifestyle, aesthetic, and budget.
Residential Upholstery Services in St. Louis
Sofa & Couch Reupholstery
Your sofa is the centerpiece of your living room. Over time, even the best fabrics fade, pill, and lose their luster. Our sofa and couch reupholstery service strips the piece down, inspects the frame, replaces worn foam or cushion filling as needed, and wraps it in your choice of premium fabric or supple leather — transforming it into something that looks and feels brand new.
Chair Reupholstery
From dining chairs to recliners, wingback armchairs, and loveseats, we restore comfort and style to every seat in your home. Our craftspeople pay meticulous attention to pattern alignment, welt cord detailing, and cushion contouring to ensure a flawless finished product on every chair reupholstery project.
Ottoman & Sectional Reupholstery
Ottomans, footstools, and sectional sofas may vary in scale, but they all get the same careful attention. We help you select the perfect fabric, then expertly reupholster each piece with tight, clean lines and durable construction that stands up to daily use.
Headboard & Custom Upholstery
A custom-upholstered headboard instantly elevates any bedroom. We design and build headboards from scratch or recover existing ones using tufting, channel stitching, nailhead trim, and other decorative techniques. We also create custom window seat cushions, banquette seating, and one-of-a-kind upholstered pieces built to your exact specifications.
Leather requires specialized knowledge that sets it apart from fabric work. Our leather repair and reupholstery services cover conditioning, color matching, targeted repairs, and full leather sofa reupholstery. We source top-grain and full-grain leathers in a wide range of colors and finishes, giving your furniture an unmistakable look of quality that lasts for years.
St. Louis businesses need a reliable upholstery partner who can handle large-scale projects without compromising on quality or timelines. We work with restaurants, hotels, corporate offices, and healthcare facilities — reupholstering booths, banquettes, lobby seating, dining chairs, conference room chairs, and waiting area furniture with durable, commercial-grade materials that maintain their appearance under the heaviest daily demands.
Great upholstery starts with a sound foundation. Our furniture repair services address the full range of structural issues — loose or broken frames, worn-out springs, collapsed cushions, and deteriorated foam. We diagnose the problem, repair or replace what’s needed using high-density foam options in a range of firmness levels, and rebuild the piece from the inside out so it looks and feels the way it was designed to.
Not every damaged piece requires a full reupholstery. In many cases, targeted vinyl upholstery repair or torn fabric repair can restore the appearance and integrity of your furniture at a fraction of the cost. During your consultation, we’ll honestly assess the damage and recommend the most cost-effective solution.
When you need a true furniture maker — not just an assembler — Gomez Upholstery delivers. We design and build custom furniture from the ground up, constructing every frame, selecting every fabric, and finishing every detail to your exact specifications. Whether you’re envisioning a tufted sectional for your living room, a built-in banquette for your kitchen, or a full suite of bespoke pieces for a commercial space, we bring over 20 years of hands-on craftsmanship to every project. Our process is collaborative from the first consultation to the final delivery: we guide you through material selection, design options, and construction choices so the finished piece is unmistakably yours — built to last, built to fit, and built to reflect the way you live.
Antique and heirloom furniture demands a delicate touch and deep respect for historical construction methods. Our antique furniture reupholstery and restoration services employ period-accurate materials — horsehair padding, natural fiber fillings, traditional hide glue, hand-tied spring systems — and techniques that preserve authenticity in every layer, not just the surface. Whether it’s a Victorian chair restoration, a family heirloom loveseat, or a mid-century piece that needs careful attention, we treat every antique as the irreplaceable object it is.
For boat owners and RV travelers throughout the St. Louis area, we provide marine upholstery and RV furniture reupholstery built to handle moisture, UV exposure, and heavy use. From boat upholstery repair on helm seats and cabin cushions to complete motorhome interior refreshes, our marine-grade materials and expert craftsmanship ensure your vessel or coach looks and feels spectacular wherever the road or river takes you.
We understand that transporting furniture is inconvenient. Gomez Upholstery offers professional pickup and delivery service across the entire St. Louis metropolitan area — St. Louis City and County, St. Charles, and Metro East communities including Belleville, Edwardsville, and Collinsville. We carefully wrap and transport your furniture to our shop, complete the work, and return it fully restored. From Downtown St. Louis to Chesterfield, O’Fallon to Webster Groves, we come to you.
