+ -1 moreEverything, from start to finish was positive. Paula was most helpful with helping select a fabric, and we ended up going with the very first one she suggested. We were on a very tight time frame (due to wanting it done prior to the arrival of house guests) and the sofa was actually completed a full week before promised. The gentlemen that picked up and delivered the sofa called prior to coming (our request) and were efficient and helpful. We are very pleased with the final results, it looks beautiful. It is our most used sofa in the house, so we are hoping it will hold up to the wear and tear it will get. Overall, our experience was excellent. We would both recommend and return to Paul's for reupholstering.
Description of Work: I had a Stickley Mission Style sofa reupholstered.

+ -1 moreI had two 25 year old kidney shaped sofas re-upholstered and re-designed. Paul's Upholstery literally transformed these sofas to the MOST amazing looking and feeling sofas! The workmanship was EXCELLENT!! No words can explain how beautiful these came out! My family could not believe that these were the same old sofas. Paula was a pleasure to work with and made the experience even more Amazing! The cost was so much better than any other company i looked into....This is NOT the first time i used Paul's and i definitely will not be the last time! THANK YOU PAUL'S!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY FOR ANY RE-UPHOLSTERY NEEDS!

Description of Work: Dropped off two small club chairs for reupholstering on 1/24/15...apprx 6-8 wks to complete. They delivered the chairs the 1st time on 4/23/15 but was returned to add more padding & redo arm chair covers. Covers did not fit properly and the finish was horrible. Delivered chairs 2nd time on 5/21/15 but the back of chairs were still puckered (not enough padding) so they were returned. Chairs delivered 3rd time 6/2/15, puckering was corrected but some of the cording at the bottom of chairs was not securely attached and some of the seams were barely stitched together & frayed. Final delivery of chairs was on 6/12/15. Cording was secured but there are two small needle holes on the fabric. At this point, I just gave up trying to tell them what to do. Wanted the owners to come to see the chairs so I could point out the problems but they chose not to so I dealt with the Driver. Maybe when their father started the business, he cared about his craft & the customer but I did not experience that at all. The son/daughter always returned my calls but the workmanship was mediocre at best and certainly not worth $1013.75.

+ 0 moreThis company is amazing. I have worked with Paula and her sister before at the Orland Park store and they are very knowledgeable, personable, and professional. They have free pick up and delivery. I had 6 absolutely destroyed dining room chairs that had caned backs. They helped me achieve the look that I wanted and even helped me save some money. We ended up upholstering the backs and seats of the 2 armed captain's chairs, which costs way less than recanting, and the seats of the other 4, and only having to recane 1 back. I would highly recommend this company. BTW the chairs came out beautiful.
Description of Work: Recaned one dining room chair and reupholstered a total of 6 dining room chairs, circa 1968, Thomasville Furniture.

+ -1 moreThe chairs were dropped off at the Orland Park location. I worked w/Paula with regards to number of chairs from 2 dining sets. I e-mailed chair seat measurements & pictures. I had a reply within 24 hrs with an approximate price based on in-stock inventory. I was told it would take 3-4 weeks to re-upholstered 12 dining chairs. I agreed with the price, dropped the chairs off at the Orland Park location on 11/17/2014. I let Paula know I needed the chairs for Christmas. I was ABSOLUTELY thrilled with chairs when I picked them up on 12/17/2014.
Description of Work: They re-upholstered 12 dining chairs - 2 required chair backs to be re-upholstered.

Description of Work: I've had furniture reupholstered before by a different company. I was very impressed by the selection of fabrics and the knowledge of Ron. He let me bring home several books to aid me in my decision on the choice of fabric. Upon giving him measurements of my sofa & loveseat and showing him photos of the furniture in the room, he then gave me the cost, that it included pick up & delivery, I was able to choose the firmness of the cushions for my furniture (two things that were extra cost with my former upholsterer). |He was available for any questions I had and guaranteed my satisfaction. Overall, I am very pleased with the service and quality I received and recommend Pauls' Upholstery.

+ -1 moreThey did an absolutely miserable job. They used some tacky gunk on the wood and now they are tacky and I cannot get it off. I am so disgusted. They did not match the pattern on the fabric. They took the chairs In the middle of June, I had to call end of August but he said they would try to put a rush on it and they had my fabric. Also stated they were shorthanded and this was after a down payment and I had given them the fabric. He had me come to the shop and it was a greasy mess, had I known this I would not have taken my furniture to them.

They are the best in the south suburbs. I felt that they had great customer service and completed the job in a timely manner.
Description of Work: They reupholstered and chair and fixed the springs. They also cleaned the wood and added new padding. I did pay extra for a protective spray.

+ -1 moreMy husband and I were very impressed with Paul's Upholstering. They proved to be most reasonable in price, and that's what ultimately led us to choose them. The sales representatives were very friendly and prompt in returning my phone calls and answering any questions regarding the upholstering process. I really liked the choice of fabrics they have in the store and was very impressed with the their creativity in how to turn my hand me down furniture into something modern and beautiful. The turnaround time was just a few weeks and the quality was superb.....we will definitely use them in the future and recommend them to family and friends!
Description of Work: Paul's Upholstering upholstered my sofa with beautiful custom fabric and added tufting....it turned out wonderful. It was a hand me down from my grandmother and they made it look new. They also upholstered two other chairs that we had, fixing the loose seat cushions, adding modern chair legs, and adding custom fabric to those chairs as well....they turned out great!
