Heirloom, Antique & Custom Reupholstery for San Antonio Homes
San Antonio is a city of furniture worth keeping — the Spanish Colonial settle handed down through the family, the Mission-style oak chair, the Victorian-era parlor sofa from a King William or Monte Vista estate. Weathersby Guild reupholsters these pieces from our Marbach Lane workshop, rebuilding them the right way so the furniture your family treasures looks new again and lasts another generation.
Whether your sofa's fabric has been bleached pale by South Texas sun, a beloved chair has gone threadbare from decades of use, or an inherited antique needs a complete rebuild, we strip every piece to the frame, repair what we find, and tailor new fabric on-piece. Free pickup and delivery across the San Antonio metro means your furniture never has to leave home in your hands.
Every reupholstery starts with a complete strip down to the bare frame, so we can see what most shops never look at. Loose joints get re-glued, broken rails spliced, and corner blocks added wherever the frame has weakened — at no extra charge. On the antique and heirloom pieces common in San Antonio's older neighborhoods, that hidden structural work is often what saves the piece.
The springs are what make a quality piece sit right for decades. We re-tie traditional spring systems with jute twine — eight knots per coil, anchored to a hardwood frame — exactly the way the antique was built. Fatigued or rusted modern springs are replaced. This is the bones of the piece, and we rebuild it properly.
Fabric is cut, fit, and stitched directly on your frame — not pre-sewn from a generic pattern. Welts, skirts, and cushion covers are all custom-tailored to your specific piece. Choose from hundreds of fabric options in our selection, including fade-resistant performance weaves built for San Antonio sun, or bring your own material (COM) and we handle the rest.
Send photos or visit our Marbach Lane workshop, and we will assess the frame, springs, and fabric needs and quote your piece individually — every estimate is free. Choose from hundreds of fabric options on hand, or bring your own material (COM). For sun-faded pieces, we will steer you toward fade-resistant performance fabrics built for South Texas windows.
Once you approve the estimate, we collect your furniture from anywhere in the San Antonio metro at no charge — and deliver it back the same way. You never have to wrestle a sofa into a truck. We handle disassembly and transport so the piece arrives at the workshop ready to rebuild.
Every piece is stripped completely — old fabric, padding, and webbing all removed — so we can inspect the frame and spring system. Loose joints are re-glued, broken rails spliced, and corner blocks added where the frame has weakened. On antiques, we assess the original construction before deciding what to preserve and what to rebuild.
Traditional 8-way hand-tied springs are re-tied with jute twine, eight knots per coil; tired modern springs are replaced. Then high-density foam cores are cut and wrapped in fresh Dacron, with the cushion feel matched to the original — firmer or softer on request — so the piece sits the way you remember it.
Your fabric is cut, fit, and stitched directly on the frame — welts, skirts, and cushion covers all custom-tailored. After a final inspection, we deliver the finished piece back to your San Antonio home, free of charge, looking new again and built to last another generation.
If the piece has a solid hardwood frame — common in the Victorian-era and Spanish Colonial furniture found throughout King William, Monte Vista, and Alamo Heights — reupholstery almost always wins. We strip the piece to the frame, inspect and repair the joints, re-tie the springs, and renew the foam, so you keep the construction quality you cannot buy at retail today. Sentimental and antique pieces are worth keeping. For an honest recommendation on your specific piece, call (210) 251-3019 or email mark@weathersbyguild.com and we will tell you whether reupholstery makes sense.
Yes. Customer's Own Material (COM) is always welcome — have your fabric shipped to our Marbach Lane workshop and we will inspect it, calculate yardage, and pattern-match before cutting. If you would rather choose from our selection, we keep hundreds of fabric options on hand, from durable performance weaves to natural fibers, velvet, and leather. We will help you pick a fabric that holds up to San Antonio's intense sun so it does not fade the way the original did.
Carefully and by hand. Every reupholstery starts with a complete strip down to the bare frame so we can see the construction before rebuilding. On antique and heirloom pieces we re-glue loose joints, splice broken rails, and add corner blocks where the frame has weakened — frame repair is included, not an upsell. Original 8-way hand-tied springs are preserved where sound or re-tied with jute twine, eight knots per coil, so the piece keeps the bones that made it last generations in your family.
Estimates are free. Send us photos of the piece — front, back, and side — or bring it by the workshop, and we will assess the frame, springs, and fabric needs. Cost depends almost entirely on the size of the piece and the fabric you choose, so we quote every job individually rather than over the phone with a one-size-fits-all number. Call (210) 251-3019 or email mark@weathersbyguild.com to get started, and we will arrange free pickup anywhere in the San Antonio metro.
