Milo Workroom

Furniture lasts longer when someone knows how to mend it. Milo Workroom specializes in giving upholstered pieces a second life without the waste or expense of replacement. Long Island City has long been a hub for makers and restorers, and this shop fits neatly into that tradition, offering repair services that keep sofas, chairs, and ottomans functional for years beyond their expected lifespan.

You’ll find the workroom at 30-02 Borden Ave Unit 201, tucked among the warehouses and studios that give this corner of Queens its character. The area’s mix of old industrial spaces and newer creative ventures makes it an ideal setting for a business focused on preservation rather than disposability. While the category might seem niche, anyone with a well-loved armchair or a vintage settee knows the value of a skilled pair of hands.

For details or to discuss a project, call (917) 502-6290. Directions and hours can be found on the map here. It’s the kind of place you only need once—until your next favorite piece starts showing its age.
