Dining chairs take a beating nobody notices until the seat goes. Gravy, red wine, children kneeling on them to reach the table, and 3 meals a day of sitting down and getting up. The frames usually outlast the fabric by years, which is why re-covering them is one of the most sensible jobs we do.

## What customers wrote about their chairs

> I recently had the pleasure of working with Trysofic Projects for the renovation of my old dining chairs, which had been with me for over a decade.
> 
> Nicole, Google review, 2 years ago

Nicole’s chairs were more than 10 years old. The same review describes the team taking “the time to understand my vision for the chairs”.

> Thank you for transforming my dinning chairs! They look brand new and the Pluto velvet fabric is amazing :-)
> 
> Marilyn Rukande, Google review

> You’ve saved me a lot of money from buying new chairs.

## What we do to a dining chair

-   **Seat pads.** Most dining chairs have a drop-in or screwed-on seat. We take it off, strip the old fabric, replace flat foam, and re-cover it.
-   **Padded backs.** Upholstered backs get the same treatment, matched to the seat.
-   **Wood.** If the legs and frame look tired next to the new fabric, ask about refinishing. The sideboard in the slider above was refinished alongside the chair that goes with it.

## Choosing fabric for chairs that get used every day

Chairs at a dining table get more spills than a couch. Think about that before you fall for a pale velvet. Marilyn Rukande chose Pluto velvet and loved it, so velvet can work. For a family table, a leather-look or a tight weave in a mid tone forgives a lot more. We bring samples to your house so you can hold them against your table and your floor. Read [choosing fabric for a couch that gets used every day](/blog/choosing-couch-fabric/). The same thinking applies to chairs.

## Doing the chairs with the couch

If your lounge suite is due too, doing both together means one collection, one sample visit, and colours chosen side by side. ImYourMedium had “sofas and dining room chairs” done together. Tell us everything in the first WhatsApp so the quote covers it all. See [couch reupholstery](/services/couch-reupholstery/).

## Dining chairs in Florida and Roodepoort

Florida, Roodepoort, is where most of our work comes from. One chair or the whole set, we collect from your door and you choose the fabric at your own table, because we bring leather and fabric samples to your home. Read [how a Florida job works](/areas/florida/).

## How to get a price

WhatsApp 074 019 9297 with:

-   a photo of one chair from the front and one from the side
-   how many chairs there are
-   whether the seat lifts out, if you know

Every set is different, so we quote each one. Read [what goes into a reupholstery price](/blog/couch-reupholstery-cost-johannesburg/) first if you’d like to know what moves the number. For armchairs, headboards and other pieces, see [chairs, headboards and furniture repair](/services/furniture-repair/).

## Questions we get asked

### Is it cheaper to re-cover dining chairs than to buy new ones?

Often, when the frames are solid. Mapuleng Gaula wrote that re-covering "saved me a lot of money from buying new chairs". Send a photo and compare our quote with new chairs of the same quality.

### Can you do the chairs and the couch at the same time?

Yes. ImYourMedium had sofas and dining room chairs done together and called it "a 360 makeover".

### Do you replace the seat foam?

If it's flattened or crumbling, yes. Gculisile mvelase wrote that damaged foam on the chairs was fixed as part of the job.
