This is nice, but I have to do a similar one and am horribly disappointed that this is not explaining how, just a time-lapse of a project.

I have the similar couch that left over when I brought my 300 years old house. I opened it up and inside the couch is filled up with dry grass and horse hair.

WOW! Amazing craftsmanship! 😍❤️

Dang I'm speechless! Love the music too!

Thanks! I have 2 of same couches at home and fixed them up. Paid $60 for 1 and $40 for the other and resold for $800 for the pair

Wow! You're Amazing!!!🙌

😱 OMG, THIS IS SO AMAZING.. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.

Don javier, you must to MA to repair my antic sofas. Beautiful work.

Hi. Amazing work. What did you use to tie the spring?

Well I've definitely bitten off more then I can chew with my victorian couch 😢.

Beautiful

Great assembly and upgrade.... Just wanted to know what color is given to the wood... Is it walnut or something else seems nice 👍

It looks like a Mahogany stain to me, or it is mahogany it is an antique after all.

I actually just bought an antique victorian couch and I believe it is this exact one. I plan to reupholster it. Approximately how many yards of fabric did it take to cover this couch? Thanks :)

I could probably do it with 9 yards, but I would quote 10 to a customer to be on the safe side. If the fabric has a pattern with a difficult repeat then it may be a yard or 2 extra.

This is art just as this victorian beauty

What were this couches originally filled with? It looks like wool? Im researching natural materials in couches…

while on quarantine I have decided to repair an antique couch like this. I am looking at a step by step how to video tutorial. Or any help. I have pulled all stuffing out and it was burlap and straw for padding. The springs look like they are in great shape but need minor repair to them being tied.

What kind of fabric are you using? Thanks!

How much is a transformation like this?

How would you fix the under part of the couch? I'm looking to buy and fix one that has a destroyed underside

Do you test the filling for asbestos?

A job like this could range from $500 to $3500. It really depends on the martials being used to reupholster the couch and how long it takes to restore it.

I have the same type of couch

Could you please tell us all tools and materials used please? Wondering if I'm capable of tackling this as a diy project

I used pliers and an upholstery staple remover to strip down. To tack on the padding and fabric I used a bea 71/16-421 staple gun. Padding I used was dacron and cotton. You can also add new foam. You might need jute or elastic webbing if the old one is no good. To glue on the double welt I used a hot glue gun. Do you need more info?

Yes, what I used is Old English Wood Scratch Cover. I also used a tooth brush and fine steel wool pads to remove all dust it collected. You can finish it off with Deft Clear Wood Finish. You can find everything at the homedepot

well. it doesn't say it is a tutorial. Try searching for a tutorial before complaining. Seems like you are the one who hasn't done your research. These are professionals showing off their work. Visit their channel, there are actual tutorials. This video is not worthless, I'm in the process myself and since I have my antique already gutted, this helped me find the next place to start. Move along with your negativity, Karen.
