Good People

About the Owner - Nate Hedwig.

I enjoy a challenge and making things that are a little bit out there and different, or turning something old and run down into something shiny and new.

Upholstery Workshop is owned and operated by Nate Hedwig. I have been a Queenstown local since 2001 after moving here for a winter and then never leaving.

At Upholstery Workshop we pride ourselves on friendly, reliable service from knowledgable staff.  We have a large range of sample fabrics in store to choose from including PVC, vinyl, leather, canvas and foam. So we can find something to suit your needs. We also provide a pick-up and delivery service for those hard to transport items.

Last week Chris finished up this interior on a 1950’s Morris Minor convertible.
The seats were stripped down to just the springs and fully rebuilt with all new foam.
He made new door cards, and trimmed the side panel to get a better fit. Everything was piped and upholstered in Vegas faux leather

UPDATE
WE’RE BACK. Emails from friday seem to be making their way through, nothing from before that though.

Our website is currently down, this means our email is as well. Sorry but we haven’t received any emails sent since Wednesday lunch time.
Please hold off emailing for now and we will let you know whe we’re back functioning properly.

This white couch was one we did a while ago, for the client with the green couch. Nice to see it in place and still looking good.

Today we delivered this couch we finished up. Originally it was piped with a skirt around the bottom. Removing those details and reupholstering it in JD Pindrive Fibreguard fabric really modernised the look without changing too much.

Recent we finished up 19 new outdoor squabs for the bench seats at Public Restaurant on Steamer Wharf. It’s all done in Sunbrella outdoor fabric and ezy dry foam.

Thanks to Queenstown Screen Printing for the logo work.

Set of six dining chairs. We stripped these down to just the frames. Then Glimmer fine finishes tidied up the legs. The chairs got all new elastic webbing and foam, then we cut all the panels so that the pattern on each chair is EXACTLY the same. My OCD really came out strong on this one. Super happy with how they finished up and more importantly so is the client.
