In business, the details matter. Whether you manage a restaurant, hotel, office, or salon, the furniture your clients and employees use every day makes a powerful statement about your brand. Well-crafted, comfortable, and durable seating sends a message of professionalism and care. When those details start to fade—cracked vinyl, worn cushions, or faded fabrics—it can affect how customers perceive your entire operation. That’s where we come in.
At Palmetto Upholstery, we provide professional commercial upholstery services across Surfside Beach and the surrounding Grand Strand. Our goal is simple: to help local businesses maintain inviting, long-lasting interiors that reflect the quality of their brand. We’ve worked with a wide range of companies—from boutique hotels and medical offices to restaurants, corporate spaces, and retail shops—delivering furniture that combines strength, beauty, and comfort.
Commercial upholstery requires a specific approach. Unlike residential work, business environments demand materials that can endure constant use and frequent cleaning. Every day, dozens or even hundreds of people interact with your furniture, which means durability, cleanliness, and design all have to work together. We take that seriously, and we tailor every project to meet those needs without sacrificing aesthetics.
When we start a commercial project, we begin with understanding your space and your goals. Some businesses come to us because they want a full redesign; others just need to refresh what they already have. We’ll assess the condition of your existing furniture, determine whether it needs complete reupholstery or minor repair, and then help you choose materials that align with your company’s style and function.
We offer a wide selection of contract-grade fabrics and vinyls that meet commercial safety and performance standards. These materials are built to withstand years of use while maintaining their appearance. They resist stains, tears, and fading, and they’re easy to clean—a crucial feature for businesses in high-traffic areas like Surfside Beach, where sand, humidity, and daily wear can take their toll. Many of our materials also include antimicrobial and moisture-resistant properties, ideal for hospitality and healthcare settings.
Every detail of our commercial upholstery work is handled with precision. We reinforce seams with industrial stitching, use high-density foam for comfort and support, and finish each piece with the care and craftsmanship that make our work stand out. Whether you’re outfitting a lobby, a waiting area, or a dining space, we’ll make sure the furniture fits your environment perfectly—both visually and functionally.
We understand that in business, time is money. That’s why we plan each project around your schedule to minimize disruption. For restaurants and hotels, that might mean working after hours or completing sections in phases so you can stay open throughout the process. For offices or medical practices, it might mean weekend or staggered installations. We coordinate closely with management teams to ensure smooth execution and on-time delivery every time.
Our work in Surfside Beach has ranged from small boutique renovations to large-scale commercial builds. We’ve reupholstered restaurant booths and barstools, built custom banquettes for coastal hotels, updated waiting room seating for medical offices, and crafted accent pieces for local retail spaces. Each project has its own personality, and that’s what makes this work exciting. We don’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions—we deliver results that match your brand’s identity and your customers’ expectations.
For designers and contractors, we also offer collaboration services. Many local interior designers rely on us to handle the upholstery phase of their projects, knowing we’ll deliver craftsmanship that complements their creative vision. We can coordinate fabric sourcing, custom pattern layouts, and finish selections to ensure everything aligns with your overall design plan.
What sets us apart in commercial upholstery is our commitment to blending quality and practicality. We understand that business furniture isn’t just there to look good—it has to perform. It has to feel comfortable for your customers, last through years of daily use, and stay clean and professional-looking with minimal effort. Our team builds that balance into every piece we restore or create.
We also offer repair and maintenance programs for businesses that want to keep their seating looking its best year-round. A few small repairs or re-covering sections as they age can extend the lifespan of your investment significantly. It’s a cost-effective way to maintain consistency and avoid full-scale replacements.
Many of our commercial clients tell us that once they’ve upgraded their seating, they notice an immediate difference—not just in aesthetics but in how their customers respond. Fresh, comfortable furniture creates a welcoming atmosphere that makes people want to stay longer, come back more often, and associate your business with quality. Those subtle impressions can make a big impact over time.
Beyond local businesses, we’re proud to serve the greater Grand Strand area, partnering with companies that share our values of integrity, reliability, and attention to detail. We approach every project—large or small—with the same hands-on care that has made Palmetto Upholstery a trusted name across South Carolina’s coast.
If your commercial space is due for an update, we’d love to help. Whether you need to replace worn restaurant booths, modernize a hotel lobby, or refit your office seating, we’ll guide you through every step—from material selection to installation.
Your business deserves furniture that represents the quality of what you do. Let’s create that together.
