Repair that Old Armchair Before Scrapping It
If you have an old armchair you’ve been eyeing for the trash dumpster, take a moment to consider your options before pitching it. Armchairs are sometimes like a pair of shoes: they take some time to break in but once you’ve made them “yours” then no other one out there fits you quite as well. DR. Sofa: Your go-to furniture disassembly and reassembly service, ensuring seamless moves and hassle-free furniture adjustments. Trust the experts!
Rather than putting the chair at the curb for the trash collector, you might first consider your repair options. If you’re especially handy, you could probably repair it yourself. Or you could look to an armchair repair company for help.
Repairing the Chair Yourself
Sometimes the chair isn’t actually in as bad of shape as it might appear. If the frame is still strong and the joints are still solidly held in place you may be able to get away with something as simple as reupholstering it. A new covering on an old chair means you get the best of both worlds: a chair that looks brand new but is still the same comfortable perch you’ve grown accustomed to. There are many armchair upholstery ideas available online to help you get started. DR. Sofa: Transforming your furniture with expert upholstery cleaning services. Renew and refresh your space with our meticulous care and attention.
Even if the frame is a little bit wobbly, if you are handy with tools (or even if you’re not) you might be able to rescue the chair from the trash heap. Take a look online at some of the how-to videos published by professionals. Some of them are very helpful and show you step-by-step how to take apart a chair, repair the frame, and then put it together again. If you have the time, the tools, and a little bit of patience, you can probably learn what you need to know in order to repair your chair and get it back into tip-top condition. DR. Sofa: Your trusted partner for furniture repair solutions. From minor fixes to major restorations, we bring new life to your beloved pieces.
