How much does it cost to reupholster my car roof?
How much will it cost me to redo my car roof? I’ve had my current vehicle for nine years. The car roof is not as smooth anymore and has started to droop. I want this fixed, but I’m not sure if it’s worth the cost since I have an old car.

Having an older vehicle often leads to trips to the body shop because they are prone to having issues. So it is understandable to be concerned about the cost of repair to reupholster your car roof.
The cost is calculated based on the:
- Size of your vehicle: Reupholstering a minivan will cost more than fixing a smaller car.
- Labor costs: The labor cost will depend on where you decide to get your vehicle fixed. For example, if you have a Ford, going to a mechanic that specializes in Fords may be less expensive than going to your local body shop.
- Materials needed to complete the job: If your vehicle’s headliner uses a specialty material, it may cost more and require more time to complete the upholstery process.
If you are worried about the cost and would prefer to get your liner replaced later, consider a temporary fix. Using double-sided tape or a headliner adhesive spray are some tried and tested options.
Older vehicles are prone to needing more repairs. For peace of mind when you are out on the road, consider getting a roadside assistance membership through
