Our Story
u-fab began in 2008 as an upholstery shop and discount fabric store, located just past the edge of Richmond’s Carytown district. Locally owned and operated by Travis Hamilton, u-fab quickly settled into its niche as Richmond’s premier choice for re-upholstery and textile-based home decor. As the demand for uniquely tailored residential and commercial services grew, u-fab began steadily expanding beyond its 1,100 square foot storefront on Robinson Street into larger spaces and a second storefront in Charlottesville.
Today, u-fab’s 28,000 square foot showroom is located in Richmond’s Near West End and houses thousands of designer home decor fabrics, a state-of-the art upholstery and sewing workroom, and a handpicked selection of customizable furniture and home furnishings from the most reputable brands in the home decor industry. Though we closed our Charlottesville storefront in 2023, we continue to serve the Charlottesville area through personalized in-home Design Consultations.
We’ve come a long way, but one thing will always remain: Our dedication to beautiful spaces for all.
Our Values
We know that when you shop with us, you’re not just buying fabric or furniture. Your home is the most important place on Earth; what you choose to put in it becomes the backdrop of your life and the place where your family will make its most cherished memories. We take that seriously, and it’s our honor to be invited into your design process. For that reason, our core values are the same today as they were when we opened our doors in 2008:
Personalized Customer Service
Quality Craftsmanship
Community
We embody these values in our work and in our partnerships. You can rest assured that the fabric, furniture and furnishings you find in our store have been hand selected by suppliers whose values align with our own.
