Once you find your seatweaving professional, you can either contact them by phone or email, listed on their ad in the Furniture Repair Directory™. 

What happens next will depend on the chair caning repair pro’s business practices and their workload ahead of your piece.

Most will ask you to supply pictures via email so they know what to expect. Some may give you a rough estimate with a final one to follow a close-up inspection when you deliver the piece.

Or perhaps they will schedule an appointment for you to deliver your piece to their workshop for a physical examination.

One thing to keep in mind is that if your piece is fairly small or the seat can be taken off the chair frame, you can ship your piece just about anywhere in the country to have it repaired.

So, if you can’t find anyone near you, consider sending cane or rush seats through the United States Post Office, UPS, FedEx or even the Greyhound bus sometimes! Removable seats can be shipped, who knew?

    Hello Janet,
    I am in California. I have a Breuer’s chair that needs the seat recanned. If I remove the seat, can you recant it? Please advise. Or do you know someone in the San Luis Obispo area who you can recommend?

    Please advise.
    Thank you.
