How Much Does It Cost to Reupholster a La-Z-Boy Recliner?
La-Z-Boy Southeast | May 2, 2019
Are you interested in how much it costs to reupholster your old La-Z-Boy Recliner?
La-Z-Boy Recliners are built-to-last and often passed down from generation to generation.
This builds a lot of sentimental value and makes people reluctant to throw out a family heirloom.
In this article, we’ll take a look at how much it costs to reupholster a La-Z-Boy Recliner.
Reupholstery: Recliner Cost
According to HomeAdvisor, the typical price range to reupholster a recliner is $400 to $1,000 depending on the fabric and labor costs.
In most situations, it’s cheaper to buy a new recliner instead of reupholstering your old one.
La-Z-Boy Recliners start at $399 and come with brand new cushions, springs, and framing.
They’re available in over 900 fabrics and leathers.
Plus, we can fit you for a recliner that’s perfect for your unique body type at any of our locations.
Recliner Reupholstery DIY
Doing-it-yourself is one way to cut down on the cost of recliner reupholstery.
However, it can be a daunting task for unexperienced furniture workers and will more than likely cost $200 to $500 for:
- Fabric
- Supplies
- Tools
You can also expect to spend a few days on this DIY project because taking the recliner apart, replacing the old upholstery, and putting it back together is a long process.
