<\/span><\/h2>\nSo one way is to look for ready-made sofa covers close enough to the size of your caravan cushions for this to work. Hunt around the shops where you’ll likely find the kind of covers you need, it helps with the price if you can find them on sale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nOnce you have found some that fit the bill, make sure the colours are what you want, remember they have to match the rest of your decor. Oh, and try to find them with zippers already fitted. One suggestion is to check out IKEA if you live close by a branch.<\/span><\/p>\nYou will need to make some alterations because even if the covers come close size-wise, they probably won’t match the odd shape caravan cushions come in. To accomplish this, you’ll need some tools. A fabric cutting wheel is better than scissors for this work, and a cutting matt would be useful. When you get to the sewing part, remember to reverse double stitch at the end of each seam.<\/span><\/p>\nBut you don’t want to be messing about putting in extra zippers unless you know how to sew very well. What I suggest is use velcro strips, they will work just the same as zippers and are a lot easier to sew in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>Reuse Existing Foam Cushions<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\nThey design caravan foam cushions to be raised at the edges to support your knees, and they may have buttons sewed in as well. In my opinion, buttons make seat coverings look really dated, so I wouldn’t keep them in. Plus, it makes life easier not having to sew in buttons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThe issue you may encounter is without buttons to pin the fabric down, it will be a looser fit. But I don’t think it’s much of an issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>Reupholstering The Back Rest Van Cushion<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\nThis is the hardest part of the whole thing. You’ll more than likely find they screw the backboard into the caravan wall and the material stapled to the backboard. So you need to unscrew the backboard and remove the staples.<\/span><\/p>\nYou can use the original foam for the back cushions, drape the replacement material over the cushions with enough overhang because you will need to staple the new material to the backboard. For this part, you’re going to need a pneumatic staple gun. You can rent one of these, no need to buy one. Don’t use a regular stapler, it’s definitely not going to work.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>How Much Is This DIY Reupholstery For Caravans?<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\nIf you found the material on sale, you can probably finish the entire job for around \u00a3100. But to stress, it will, of course, depend on the number and size of cushion covers you want to replace. The additional costs will be to rent the staple gun and buying the staples.<\/span><\/p>\nIf replacing the covers yourself fills you with dread or you simply don’t have the time or inclination, then you need to approach the professionals.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>Average Cost To Reupholster A Static Caravan Professionally<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/span>Static Caravans<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\nWithout knowing the exact sizes and number of cushions, I can only help you with a starting point figure.<\/span><\/p>\nReupholstery from \u2013 \u00a31300<\/span><\/p>\nReupholstery and new seat foam from \u2013 \u00a31650<\/span><\/p>\nReplacement foam only from \u2013 \u00a3750<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>2-6 Berth Touring Caravans<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n2-Berth Touring Caravans<\/b><\/p>\n
