Cushion Doctor did a fabulous job on my worn dinning chairs. They replaced the padding and ribbing and the chairs are looking beautiful. They helped me pick out the fabrics to complement the look I wanted. They feel so comfortable and new again. And the price was fair and reasonable. The staff is knowledgeable and pleasant to work with.

This company was absolutely wonderful to work with. We dealt mainly with John, who was very knowledgeable and made wonderful recommendations as to the fabric that would best suit our needs. John’s communication was also superb. We are so happy with the end result. The work was done in a timely manner as well and pricing was extremely reasonable. I highly recommend using this company for all your upholstery needs

Cushion Doctor is fantastic! I had a pending rental and they totally stepped up to have our sectional sofa and accent chair/ottoman re-upholstered in record time prior to guest arrival. They totally live by their motto to "Make it Right". I would unequivocally recommend the local team at Cushion Doctor for your upholstery needs.

Cushion Doctor was a fantastic experience! They helped my wife and me decide on a couple of fabric options. They provided great feedback and a quick turnaround on the project. The only place to use in SWF!

Highly recommend Cushion Doctor! Cushion Doctor did an outstanding job restoring our old, heavily-used kitchen nook table base and four chairs. They reupholstered and firmed up the seat cushions, added new support straps underneath, and even polished the wood — everything looks brand new again! The quality of their work is top-notch, and they completed the project on time. We also appreciated that the total cost was at least 50% less than buying a new dining set. When we couldn’t pick up the furniture ourselves, Cassie and John happily arranged home delivery for a small fee. Both are professional, friendly, and wonderful to work with. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Cushion Doctor for anyone looking to give their furniture new life! MP

Frequently Asked Questions About Cushion Replacement Sarasota

Do you offer marine upholstery services in Sarasota?
Yes. Cushion Doctor provides professional marine upholstery services in Sarasota, FL. We reupholster boat seats, helm chairs, cushions, bolsters, bow seating, and interior panels for all types of watercraft. We use marine-grade vinyl and fabrics specifically designed to withstand sun, salt, water, and mold — the conditions that destroy standard upholstery quickly in Florida’s marine environment.

We work on all types of watercraft including fishing boats, pontoon boats, bowriders, center consoles, ski boats, cuddy cabins, deck boats, and larger cabin cruisers. Whether your boat is a small runabout or a larger vessel with a full interior, we have the experience and materials to handle the job correctly.

We use marine-grade vinyl and UV-resistant fabrics specifically designed for the harsh marine environment. Our foam is closed-cell or wrapped in moisture-resistant material to prevent water absorption and mold growth. All thread used is UV and saltwater resistant. We do not use indoor-grade materials on marine applications because standard materials deteriorate rapidly when exposed to sun, water, and salt air.
With quality marine-grade materials and proper care, marine upholstery typically lasts 8 to 15 years in Florida conditions. The biggest factors affecting lifespan are UV exposure, how the boat is stored, and how often the seats are cleaned and treated. Using a UV protectant spray regularly and storing the boat under cover or using seat covers when not in use will significantly extend the life of the upholstery.
The best way is to bring your boat or the specific cushions and seat panels to our Sarasota shop at 4075 S Tamiami Trail. We can assess the condition of the existing upholstery, take measurements, show you material options, and provide a detailed quote. You can also call us at 941-216-2265 to discuss your project before coming in.
