What We Do

Every piece has a story.
Let's write the next chapter.

Reupholstery

From dining chairs to sectionals, we strip, repair, and re-cover with materials that match your taste and your life — whether that's durable performance fabric or something luxuriously traditional.

Spring & Structural Repair

Sagging seats, loose frames, broken springs — the skeleton matters as much as the skin. We rebuild what's failing so your furniture stands strong for another generation.

Antique Restoration

Victorian armchairs, mid-century gems, heirloom settees — we understand period construction and source historically appropriate materials so your antique stays authentic.

Auto & Marine Upholstery

Car seats, boat covers, truck interiors — weather-resistant materials and precise fitting that handle the road and the water without skipping a beat.

Commercial Contracts

Restaurants, hotels, offices — we handle high-volume projects with the same care we give a single dining chair. Durable, code-compliant, and on schedule.

Custom Design Consultation

Not sure what fabric? What style? Bring us your vision — or your doubts — and we'll help you land on something that looks right and lasts right.

Our Story

We don't just fix furniture.
We keep memories alive.

Old Timers Upholstery started with a simple belief: the best furniture isn't the newest — it's the one that fits your life, your home, and your story. What began as a one-person operation in Farmington has grown into the region's most trusted upholstery shop, but the philosophy hasn't changed.

Every piece that comes through our door gets the same attention — whether it's a $200 thrift-store find you see potential in or a $3,000 antique that belonged to your great-aunt. We hand-select materials, we hand-stitch seams, and we hand-deliver results you can feel.

We're not a franchise. We're not a catalog company with a local address. We're your neighbors on US-67, and we take pride in the fact that most of our customers come back — or send their friends.

How It Works

Four steps from
tired to timeless.

01

Tell Us What You Have

Call us, email a photo, or bring the piece in. We'll assess the condition, discuss your options, and give you an honest estimate — no pressure, no surprises.

02

Choose Your Materials

Browse our fabric library — we carry everything from budget-friendly durables to luxury imports. Not sure? We'll show you samples and help you decide.

03

We Do the Work

Your piece goes to work. We handle every detail — stripping, repairing, padding, stitching — and keep you updated along the way. Usually 2–6 weeks depending on complexity.

04

Pick Up & Enjoy

Your furniture comes back looking and feeling brand new — except better, because now it has your story woven into it. Bring it home and give it another forty years.

Kind Words

What our
neighbors say.

"They restored my grandmother's rocking chair and I honestly couldn't tell it wasn't brand new. The craftsmanship is incredible — every stitch is perfect. I've already sent three friends their way."

Farmington, MO

"We had six dining chairs reupholstered for our restaurant. They were on time, on budget, and the quality is holding up beautifully after months of daily use. These guys understand commercial work."

R

Robert D.

Benton, MO

"I brought in a mid-century sofa that was falling apart. I expected a quote and a long wait. Instead I got honest advice, a fair price, and a result that made my living room look like a magazine. Best in the area, hands down."
