Is there any type of warranty of fabrics purchased from an upholsterer?
YES. Fabrics purchased from your upholsterer have a limited warranty against fabric manufacturing failures, should such failures occur under normal wear conditions. This limited warranty is backed by the manufacturer and the fabric distributor. Fabric can only be warranted if sold by your upholsterer. Many retail stores buy off-quality fabrics to have attractive prices to advertise. These fabrics cannot be warranted in most cases as they are not bought directly from the manufacturer and often the manufacturer is not even known. (Your upholsterer is not able to warranty their work if they are not aware of the quality of fabric that you have furnished.) Upholstery fabrics come in an extensive variety of textures and colors. Furniture styling should be considered when choosing a fabric, along with selecting the proper fabric for the wear your furniture will receive. Your upholsterer can help you choose a first quality fabric from their wide selection of sample books.
