The craft

Three benches, one standard.

Every job — a show car, a grandmother's wingback, a pontoon bench — gets the same hands and the same patience.

The bench

Stripped to the frame where needed, rebuilt, and finished by hand — father and son.

Delivered on time, looking better than the day it was made. That's the whole point.

In their words

Neighbors say it best.

Mr. DeWeese and his son were friendly and helpful, and the chairs all came out beautifully.

Heritage

A Main Street shop in the truest sense.

DeWeese Upholstery has worked from Amelia's West Main Street for half a century — long enough to re-do some of the same family sofas twice, a generation apart.

The work has ranged from neighborhood recliners to a custom built by George Barris — the man behind Hollywood's most famous cars. Every piece gets the same bench.

"We have you covered."

That piece you've been meaning to fix? Bring it in.
