Furniture Repair & Disassembly in New York, NY
NYC’s Sofa Doctor for Furniture That Won’t Fit
Dr. Sofa is New York’s sofa doctor. For 25+ years we have taken apart sofas, sectionals and sleepers that won’t fit through a narrow door, a prewar stairwell or a small elevator, then carried them in and rebuilt them in the room. No sawing, no damage to walls or door frames, and your furniture looks exactly as it did when it left the store.
We also repair, clean, protect and modify upholstered furniture, so one visit can fix a broken frame or a sagging seat while we are there. Stuck in a tight hallway right now? Read our guide to fitting a sofa through a narrow door in NYC, or book online and see your price in minutes.
