Though not every piece has springs, every piece has a foundation. Once the furniture piece is stripped, cleaned, and repaired as needed we rebuild the foundation. This can take the form of retying springs, or for a piece without springs (e.g. an ottoman or some dining chairs) it takes the form of rebuilding the jute web foundation that creates the seating structure. Depending on the size of the piece and the number of springs this can take a couple hours, or a couple days. This happens before the upholstery process can begin.
