Recliner FAQs
Most of the time, yes.
Sometimes the parts can’t be found in the aftermarket, which is any place sells recliner parts. We order from a number of vendors – sometimes even other countries if needed.
Sometimes, however, replacement recliner parts are proprietary and can only be ordered from the manufacturer. Some manufacturers require the paperwork.
Most of the time it’s easier to go through the retailer you bought the furniture from to get all this done.

As far as converting your recliner into an electric?
No. If we could, it might not be worth it to you anyway. Every single part other than the frame would need to be purchased on the aftermarket and installed into a framework that may not fit.
Perhaps chair shopping is in your future?
No. If we could, it wouldn’t be worth it to you anyway. Every single part other than the frame would need to be purchased on the aftermarket and installed into a framework that may not fit. The back engineering challenges are way too massive and you’d be able to buy several chairs by the time you were done.
Well… with great expense. It may not be worth it to you.
Every single part other than the frame would need to be purchased on the aftermarket and installed into a framework that is not designed for it.
Perhaps chair shopping is in your future?
Yes. We typically can repair both manual and electric recliners.
You are right on the parts. Some of the parts are different – for example, in some manual models, the cables are longer. So we carry those cables, too.
Local Repair Services - General FAQs

We don’t do assembly or disassembly as a general rule.
If something has fallen apart, then there’s a good chance we can fix it. Or we know someone who can. Fire off some pictures when you contact us and let’s see how we can help you.
As far as assembling out-of-the-box furniture, there are some assembly professionals on both Yelp and Amazon local services. Happy hunting.

“Do you carry parts?” usually means “Can you fix it the first time you come out?”
Most of the time, we can. We keep almost all the standard parts in stock and ready to go. That said, recliners are made in numerous countries by even more numerous manufacturers.
Some manufacturers use proprietary parts which, unfortunately, only come from the manufacturer themselves. The ones that limit access to their parts are mostly the Big Names in recliners. (You know who you are.)
Fortunately, there are many more manufacturers that use the more ubiquitous parts. (With those, we can waltz in, diagnose and happily fix on the spot!)
Even with the recliners that need special parts, primarily electrical, we can often get you going up and down with a standard part until your special one comes in.
Sure, we can if you’re in our service area, we do come to your location. We are a mobile service and do almost all repairs on-site.
Because we’re mobile, we don’t have a shop. Even so, there are a few things we can here – like dining room chairs, that need to be super sturdy.
So, for the most part, what we can repair, we do it at your place. (No dragging heavy furniture to a shop – just sit back with your feet up and your hand on a favorite beverage while we do the work.)
We repair the wood structure of most drawers that can be removed. What we don’t repair, we have a friend that does. Just ask. 🙂

We don’t sell parts because we aren’t set up tax-wise to sell parts.
We only include them in the repair service, itself. Our estimates, when we can give them, include the part whenever possible.
If you just need a part, there are so many, you’ll have to do just what we do – dig in and search… then search some more… Then, in gritty determination, search one more time down every trail.
Sigh… that’s the only way it’s done.
Typically, no. Wicker and caning require specialized skills to repair.
That said, if the problem is simply cosmetic or on a different part of the furniture, then feel free to email a picture to us.
We can usually tell you right away whether we can help or not.
Is there a service charge?

Yes. Just like all mobile service businesses, we have to. It’s simply a fact of life.*
Our Service/Inspection Charge is $75.
That covers the trip to you, as well as the time, labor, and expertise needed to inspect.
The technician will tell you, after inspecting the furniture, what the diagnosis is.
If, for some reason, he is not able to repair the furniture during that appointment, and can only do an inspection, unless otherwise advised prior to the actual inspection, you will only owe the minimum amount of $75.
(If you have received an estimate from us ahead of time in writing, we will have already factored that minimum cost in and it won’t be added on.)
*Just some of the costs for a small business today – even one that keeps its belt tightened: Advertising (a significant expense), Truck Expenses, Bank Charges, Licenses, Accounting Fees, Taxes, Dues & Subscriptions, Insurances (3 kinds), Marketing, Payroll – Technicians and Office Staff, Website Maintenance, etc.
The short answer, if we can’t, we know someone that can.
The issue can be any one of the following:
- padding
- cushions
- springs
- webbing
- structure
How do you know which one?
If it happened over a period of time, it would be the padding or cushions.
If it happened all at once or relatively quickly, it will be the springs, webbing, or structure. If this happened quickly with a recliner, then it also might be something in the mechanism. We can inspect and let you know for sure.
We don’t restuff pillows or add padding anymore, however, we do have a friend who does. Give us a call or email and we’ll pass on the gentleman’s name.
Furniture Structure FAQs
The short answer, if we can’t, we know someone that can if you’re in the Tampa Bay area.
The issue can be any one of the following:
- padding
- cushions
- springs
- webbing
- structure
How do you know which one?
If it happened over a period of time, it would be the padding or cushions.

Can You Fix the Frame or Springs on My Couch or Sectional?
We do repair the frames of smaller chairs. We no longer fix the large couches or sectionals.
However, we do know a gentleman that does repair larger furniture frames, webbing and springs in the Tampa Bay / Pinellas County areas.
Contact us and we’ll pass on his contact information.
