Large Venues

Wide Areas, Narrow Budgets

Shopping malls, theatres, company restaurants, conference centers and, other large venues, all need to present a clean and bright appearance, and the replacement of worn or grubby furnishings would be a major expense.

Fortunately, unless it has suffered major damage as in fire or flood or serious vandalism, most furniture can be restored at a fraction of the cost of replacement, particularly when an expert company such as Heffernan Upholstery is employed to carry out the work.

Health and Safety, Public Liability

When a fabric is torn, and foam exposed, furnishings may no longer comply with fire regulations. Replacement, or repair and restoration, is then a matter of urgency, and where damaged furnishings need to be replaced by matching fabrics that will still comply with updated health and safety regulations, expertise is essential.

Heffernan Upholstery employs expert reupholsters, seamstresses, joiners and frame repairers, and this team can handle the recovering of damaged furnishings, the replacement of worn foam or damaged springs and webbing, and the cleaning and restoration of furniture frames at a fraction of the cost of replacement.

Matching Materials to Demand

Different venues will place different demands on their furniture, and Heffernan Upholstery can advise on the best materials for each unique venue.  Bench seats in shopping malls will demand durability, a fabric that can be cleaned easily, and high resistance to damage both accidental and deliberate.  Theatre seating must be comfortable and safe. Contract seating should be able to withstand frequent stacking, transport, and storage whilst still being easy to clean and presenting a bright and fresh appearance.

Public Area, Private Eye

Every member of the public who visits a venue will come away with an impression. This impression will have a considerable bearing upon decisions to revisit or to recommend. Nobody is impressed by grubby or shabby furnishings; clean, comfortable and in keeping with its surroundings is what you will get with the support and assistance of Heffernan Upholstery.
