How We Work With Designers and Contractors on New Construction Seating Projects

When it comes to new commercial spaces — from restaurants to churches to medical offices — seating is one of the most important pieces of the puzzle. It has to be functional, comfortable, stylish, and durable. That’s why more designers and contractors across the country partner with JD’s Upholstery to deliver seating solutions that match the vision and meet the deadline.

We don’t just upholster furniture — we collaborate from concept to installation to ensure every project runs smoothly. Here’s how we make seating stress-free for general contractors, architects, and interior designers.


🤝 1. We Understand the Project Lifecycle

We’ve been doing this for decades. That means we know how to:

  • Work within construction timelines

  • Coordinate with multiple vendors and trades

  • Stay flexible as changes happen

  • Hit key milestones for inspection and final punch

Whether we’re building from scratch or upholstering onsite, we know how to work as part of a professional team — not just a vendor.


🧩 2. We Match Your Vision and Specs

Designers bring the vision. Contractors bring the framework. We bring the craftsmanship that brings it all together.

We collaborate on:

  • Material selection — including commercial-grade fabrics, vinyls, leathers, and foam

  • Color palettes and pattern matching

  • ADA-compliant and code-aware seating designs

  • Custom shapes, tufting, piping, and finish options

Need to match architectural millwork or other built-ins? No problem. Our detail-oriented team ensures everything fits and flows as it should.


🧰 3. We Can Build From the Ground Up — or Upholster On-Site

Whether your carpentry crew is building the booth bases or you need full fabrication, we adapt to your workflow.

We offer:

  • On-site upholstery installation

  • Pre-fab foam and upholstery delivered to spec

  • Support for both fixed and modular seating systems

  • Full-service booth fabrication upon request

Our crews are mobile and efficient — able to work in tandem with your installers and meet construction deadlines without disrupting your schedule.


📋 4. We Communicate Clearly and Show Up On Time

Our contractor and designer clients say it best: JD’s shows up when we say we will, and we get it done. We maintain strong communication throughout the process so there are no surprises, no excuses, and no delays.

You’ll get:

  • Clear timelines and scope

  • Consistent updates and check-ins

  • On-site professionalism

  • Detailed invoicing and project tracking

We’re here to make your job easier, not harder.
