81142

Analysis

NAICS 81142 is the 2022 NAICS industry for reupholstery and furniture repair, part of 8114 (Personal and Household Goods Repair and Maintenance).

It has only one more detailed code, 811420, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.

County Business Patterns counts 3,168 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 10,920 people at an average annual payroll of $40,682 per employee (9th percentile of national industries). 78% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 11% and employment fell 10%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.

By establishments it ranks 3rd of the 4 codes at this level within Personal and Household Goods Repair and Maintenance, with 14% of them.
