Plain Upholstery FAQs

  1. What types of plain upholstery fabrics do you offer?

    We offer a wide variety of plain upholstery fabrics, including linen, canvas, chenille, velvet, and wool. These fabrics come in an array of colours and weights to suit any upholstery project, from furniture to decorative accessories.

  2. What makes plain fabric a good choice for upholstery?

    Plain fabric is versatile and can easily complement any room decor, from traditional to contemporary. It provides a solid colour background that allows other elements of the room to stand out, making it easier to accessorise with patterned throws, cushions, or curtains.

    Plain fabrics are also less likely to go out of style over time compared to bold prints or patterns. In many cases, solid colours can also hide minor stains or imperfections better than patterns.

  3. How do I select the right colour when purchasing a plain upholstery fabric?

    Consider the room's existing colour scheme and the mood you want to create. Neutral colours like beige or grey can offer versatility and longevity, matching well with changing decors. For a more dramatic impact, choose a bold colour that complements accent pieces in the room.

    You should also consider practical aspects. For example, darker colours hide stains and wear, while lighter shades open up spaces. If you are unsure, we recommend getting fabric samples to test in the room before making a final decision.

  4. What are one of your most affordable plain upholstery options?

    Our polyester upholstery is among the most affordable plain upholstery options we offer. This material provides durability and ease of maintenance at a lower cost, making it ideal for budget-friendly projects.

  5. How long do plain upholstery fabrics last under normal use?

    The lifespan of plain upholstery fabric can vary widely based on the material and quality of the fabric. Generally, high-quality upholstery fabric can last anywhere from 5 to 15 years. Fabrics with higher abrasion resistance ratings are expected to last longer than this.
