Church Pew Upholstery in South Carolina | Pew Refresh in Seneca, SC
Savanna Williams-Bowlin
A church in Seneca, South Carolina, wanted their pew seats refreshed without a full rebuild. Fabric and padding were worn; the wood backs were still fine. Sharpe’s Church Interiors did seat-only upholstery — new foam and fabric on the seats, original backs left alone.
Why seat-only
Seat-only is a common budget move when the backs don’t need work. You get a real comfort and look upgrade without paying to re-cover every surface. For Seneca, that was the right call.

How we ran the job
- Assessment — checked fabric, foam, and wood structure
- Materials — church picked a durable fabric for heavy use
- Strip — removed old fabric and padding carefully
- Foam — installed high-density padding on the seats
- Fabric — stretched and secured for a smooth finish
- Walkthrough — quality check and cleanup before we left

After

New seats, same wood backs — the sanctuary looked cleaner and sat better. Staff and members noticed right away, which is usually the feedback we hope for.
