What committees ask before they vote.

No. The press, the flooring crew, and paint are scheduled between services. The congregation never sits in a construction zone on Sunday.

Materials 12–16 weeks. On-site pew work is usually 3 days to 2 weeks. Flooring follows the next week if you chose Core or Masterpiece.

About a week for most sanctuaries. Our own paint crew does the work, and we plan it around your services so Sunday is never in the way.

Start the conversation a season ahead of the date you have in mind. Materials take 12–16 weeks, and the committee usually needs a meeting or two to settle colors. Planning early is what keeps the work off a holiday or a homecoming weekend.

No. The press comes to the sanctuary and the pews stay in the building. Our crew handles the work in the room, and we leave it ready for worship.

No. Carpet crew and upholstery crew are Sharpe’s employees. One superintendent, one warranty, one number in Dunn.

Lifetime workmanship on pew upholstery. 25 years on flooring workmanship. If a seam isn’t right, you call Dunn. Bryan’s crew comes back.

Fabric that gives in every direction, not just along the length. It wraps the bullnose, the end of the seat, and the crown of the back without wrinkles, and the press locks it down so it stays that way.

Audio, video and lighting are done through a partner, coordinated by our project manager, so the committee is not juggling vendors.

Yes. Masterpiece includes designer renderings — three colorways, three views each — so the committee votes on pictures of your room.

Yes. We send samples with the quote. For new pews we offer multiple woods and stains. We cannot refinish existing pews lighter than the stain already on them.

Our own designer, drawing your sanctuary. They are not stock images. The committee sees its own room in each colorway before anyone votes.

Narrow it before the meeting. Pick two or three fabric samples that suit the carpet, the walls and the wood, and look at them in the sanctuary in daylight. Renderings help when the room is changing more than the pews.

Typically $25–$60 per linear foot depending on seats, backs, and body style. About one-third the cost of new pews of equal quality. We quote the actual pew, not a generic bench.

Our cushions run about $16 to $20 per linear foot, depending on the front style and the fabric. They are olefin, loose, reversible, and come with a rolled or boxed front.

Church interior design typically runs $1,500 to $2,500, depending on the size of the room and how much is changing.

Pew style, the number of linear feet, the condition of the wood, and what else is in the plan all change the number. We measure and quote your pews, so the price matches the work.

The crew arrives and sets up the press in the sanctuary. Pews stay in the room. Work moves pew by pew so the rest of the sanctuary stays usable.

Vacuum seats with a soft brush attachment, wipe spills promptly with a damp cloth, and keep hymnals and bags off the seat crown where they rub. Ask us about care for the fabric you choose.

They are loose and reversible, so flip them now and then to spread the wear. Vacuum and spot clean the same way you would upholstered pews.

One full pew from the aisle, a close shot of the seat front, and the room from the back. Measure one pew end to end and count how many have seats and backs.

Share the samples or renderings after the committee narrows them, and announce the work dates early. Because we work between services, most members only notice the finished room on Sunday.

What is in scope (pews, cushions, floor, paint), roughly when the work should happen, and which Sundays cannot move. Colors can come later once samples arrive.

All 48 contiguous states. We hand-deliver cushions. The press rolls into the sanctuary wherever you are.
