Add Pew Cushions to Church Pews for More Comfort

Are your church pews uncomfortable? Are the pew cushions worn out? Egan's Church Furnishings and Restorations upholstery team can come to your church and reupholster your existing pew cushions and kneelers or completely replace the foam and re-upholster your cushioned pews.

Egan's upholstery team assisted St. Joseph's Church in Leicester, MA to add comfort and to their historic church pews. Structurally sound, but uncomfortable, Egan's installed new, 2-inch thick pew cushions which made these church pews much more comfortable without losing the beauty of their historic church.

Egan’s assisted St. Anthony of the Desert in Fall River, MA with the complete interior make over. The pews were structurally sound, but the parish wished to "change the look" without having to purchase new church pews. Egan's upholstery crew added 2-inch thick pew cushions to the seats and 1-inch thick cushions to the seat backs with a nice  fabric to compliment the new carpet.

Contact Egan's Church Furnishings and Restorations to help with your church pew repair or upholstery project. If your pew cushions are ripped or worn out, we can bring them back to "like new" condition.

If your kneelers are broken or damaged, we can replace them with the highest quality replacement kneelers with solid steel brackets. Call us.

The Pew cushions in your church can make a first impression. With wedding season right around the corner, spruce up the appearance of your place of worship with reversible pew cushions.
 
Whether purchasing pew cushions for the first time, replacing the existing pads, or re-upholstering your pews and kneelers, they should be done right and made to be long lasting. At Egan’s Church Furnishings and Restorations we have the highest quality pew cushions for some of the lowest prices around. Why? Because we don’t use a 3rd party manufacturer. Eliminating the middle man reduces the costs substantially.

Egan’s Church Furnishings offer only the highest quality reversible pew cushions for your church. Our cushions are all made with high density foam covered in either nylon or velor fabric. We also have custom fabrics available upon request.

If your pew cushions are ripped and torn or worn out Egan’s can help you with your upholstery project. If you want to convert your wood pews to cushion pews, we can do that too with our fixed pew cushion service. Contact Egan’s for a quote or to order new pew cushions for your church.

Ratigan-Schottler Church Pews and Chairs are the Right Choice for your Church

Ratigan Church Pews and Pew Ends:   Ratigan uses two 1 inch thick “First and Select red oak “ pieces of solid oak, glued together, to form a 2 inch thick pew end.  By using two pieces of top quality oak, the church pew end is guaranteed against warping and ensures the best support for the pew bench.

Our solid oak church pews and church chairs are all contoured for maximum comfort or choose our 3 inch thick upholstered pew cushions instead. We can also provide an all upholstered seat and back for your church.

Ratigan- Schottler does not use any laminates for their church furniture because to ensure that the pews in your church look fantastic for years to come. On church pews, especially on pew ends, laminate is easily damaged from cleaning and maintenance work in the aisles!

Ratigan-Schottler has been producing only the finest quality “all solid oak” church pews for over 72 years. No veneers, no particleboard or other manufactured materials. Only real, top quality solid wood, and the all solid oak is “First and Select”.

The expert craftsmen at Egan’s Church Furnishings and Restorations can work with your architect or parish building committee to create any style church pew to enhance your worship site. We have dozens of standard style pew ends to choose from. We also have a limitless capacity to create a custom look for your church pews just like you see here in the Basilica of the Assumption in Baltimore, MD and the Chapel at Salve Regina University  in Rhode Island.

For more information on solid wood church pews and chairs for your church, contact us.
