Response from Dominic's Design
Never were we hostile, unprofessional, nor have a rigid attitude. We showed up to (Member Name Removed) home in middle Dec, 2016, quoted a sofa and chair, she said she would get back to us, she called Jan 28, 2017, she had another upholsterer do her chair and she did not like it. We told her because someone else do the chair we no longer have the original pattern of the chair to make it the original way it was but we could modify iy to the best of our ability, but it would not be the same, and she was fine with that. We delivered chair 3 weeks later, she did not like it. We explained again, we did not get the chair in original condition so we could not put back in original style as again the other upholster did not do the chair the same as original way so we had nothing to go by. We took the chair back and said we would redo with the changes she told us. We then called to say we had ordered more fabric, and we were in the process of finishing the changes she requested and she left us a message stating she wanted different fabric. We told her no on the different fabric, that we were just fixing changes that she told us when we delivered as to what was original when she gave to other upholsterer. We will not accept giving back $400 as that was the cost of the fabric. We are willing to give her the chair and we can submit pictures of the professional job they are now getting for FREE! We did not contract the complaint and he was not even there when we met with (Member Name Removed) and gave estimate and talked about the condition of the chair and what we would be able to do without seeing and stripping the original fabric of the chair.

He came-out to give us an estimate for a bench seat to be made from upholstery. It was too pricey. He did some warranty work on some nice rocker/gliders we have. They are working well now. He repaired a couch upholstery issue. It looks good.

Very responsive & professional. Had a bit of a miscommunication on the original appointment but gave us a slot on the next business day (Friday vs Monday). Friendly and respectful, they arrived on time, diagnosed the problem (separated seam) and repaired it quickly. Quality work and would definitely use them again.

Jon returned my call almost immediately. He even offered to pick up the cushions and return them within 7 days. It worked out better for us to drop off but cushions were completed on time and look amazing! We will definitely use Dominic's again.

I already sent you the message exchange process with Dominics which culminated to have the order cancelled. Dominics is a very honest, respectable and professional company. Company advised me that the problem of the dining table I have described by e-mail was considered not needing any remedy now.

I first contacted Dominic's by email in May, 2013, to inquire about whether the company made replacement cushions for deck furniture. I had looked for commercial replacements for our 24 year old Kinston chair cushions but could not find any in the right style and size. I began to look for someone to make custom replacements. I first checked Angie's List. One company that advertises heavily in mailers had several bad reviews. Few other companies seemed to be able or willing to do this type of work. I finally talked to one well-rated upholsterer (unfortunately I don't remember his name) who referred me to Dominic's. In less than 24 hours, Jon sent me a reply, giving me a general estimate on labor costs. He offered to come to our home with an outdoor fabric book. I didn't follow up until early July. We had some back and forth before finding a mutually workable date (July 30). I was hesitant to have an unknown person come to our home, but am glad I did because Jon was able to see our furniture, the colors of our deck and house, talk with my husband and me about preferences etc. We ended up choosing one of the more expensive options based on the quality, feel and colors. Jon prepared an estimate on the spot. We had just rebuilt our deck, adding a double storage bench/seat at one end. We asked Jon how much it would cost for him to make new cushions for the bench. Those added about $700 to the price. We decided to order them. Jon said that the cushions should be finished in about four weeks. It actually took about six weeks. He delivered the cushions and attached them via the fabric ties. We did not order ties for the bench seats - Jon said to contact him if we wanted him to add them after we'd lived with them for awhile. Before Jon left, my husband showed him a dining room chair cushion that had come loose because all of its screws had fallen out. Even though there was no reupholstery involved, Jon said he could repair it, and did so for an additional $75. Despite tight room to maneuver, he was able to drill new holes and reattach the cushion. He brought the chair back to us in about three weeks. Jon is a young man who works with his father and is the third generation of his family to operate Dominic's. We were very impressed with his personable nature as well as his proficiency. We had fun with him in the process of finding a solution to our upholstery challenges. We would definitely use him again. We feel that this type of work is pricey but based on the cost of commercial cushions and other upholstery work, it seems fair. We could have chosen a less expensive fabric, and we could have forgone the bench cushions. But we love the new cushions for our new deck. They are heavier and slower to dry when it rains than our old cushions, but they are beautiful. With a little luck they will last another 24 years. That prospect makes the investment worthwhile for us.
Description of Work: Jon repaired and recovered seat and back cushions for four deck chairs, and created two large matching cushions for a deck bench. When the job was finished he repaired a dining room chair by re-fastening a loose cushion for an additional $75.

Jon and Gino came to our house to give us some estimates on furniture that needs to be upholstered as well as discuss building a headboard for our masterbedroom. They came out within a few days of the call and stayed for about an hour. They gave us great estimates on each piece which were definitely competitive with others we called. When scheduling the appointment we discussed fabrics and the colors we were thinking about. They brought out some great books that were current and a mixture of price points. A few of the other companies we spoke with did the same, but the fabrics books they brought were dated and cheap. Anyway, they pointed out what fabrics would be good on each piece and even suggested ways to make the furniture look more updated and different than they did now. They were not afraid to offend me by not agreeing with everything I suggested, which I GREATLY appreciated. I would be more upset if I spent $1000 and the piece looked horrible than to be told an idea was wrong and the piece came out perfect. We decided to go with the headboard first. After spending a large amount of time discussing the headboard and what style would be best, we decided on a picture I had found on Pintrest. The pictures was only of half the bed, with no measurements or any guidelines to work with. They were completely starting from scratch. About 3 weeks later, we received our headboard and it is absolutely a piece of art. Better than I EVER expected it to be. The nail heads are perfectly straight. The stuffing is even and the back is finished almost as well as the front. It is absolutely beautiful! There is not one thing that I can say that could be done better or anything that I do not like. I just love it! Jon and Gino were very easy to work with and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. My husband asked if they would mind us stopping by their workroom to see the bed prior to covering it. Since they were doing it completely from scratch, we wanted to make sure we were all on track before the fabric was put on. They agreed, but thought it would be better to bring the bed to the house and make sure that everything was correct and fit in the room and on the frame. So they came all the way back to our house (they are in the northern part of Noblesville and we are on the far west side of Carmel so it was a hike) put the bed in place, everything looked great and they were on their way again. It took longer for them to drive here than to show us the bed. That was a huge help though! I absolutely would and will call Jon and Gino again for all of our upholstery needs. They are great to work with!!
Description of Work: Jon and Gino designed and completed a king headboard for our master bedroom. They came to our house within a few days of the initial call, spent over and hour with us measuring, designing and discussing what style bed would go best in our room. I had a number of ideas and they were not afraid to tell me what they thought. What I mean is they were honest in their opinions on whether the style I wanted was to big, how it should be made etc. Obviously they were interested in our business or they would not have been there, but at the risk of making me mad, they were honest and told me not only what I wanted to hear but what I should hear right or wrong.

Gino and Jon were great to work with and offered a wide selection of fabric samples to choose from when they came to give me the estimate. I found just what I was looking for in the fabric. They came to the house with the fabric choices and to give an estimate, picked up the piece, stayed in contact with me and then delivered it back, looking beautiful. Great job, Gino and Jon.
Description of Work: They beautifully re-upholstered a 25 year old white wicker loveseat . It is a quality piece of furniture and they turned it back into a showpiece. I love the way it looks and am so glad that I had the piece re-upholstered. Love it !!

We wanted to have our worn out dining room chairs reupholstered. Initially, I thought we might try it on our own, but fortunately, I chickened out on the project. The seats had an unusual shape, with double piping around the edges. We called Dominics and described our project over the phone. They gave us some rough ideas on pricing, and we decided to move forward. We scheduled a time for them to come out to our home. Jon & Gino (father & son) came out to our home and helped us select the fabrics that best met our needs. We selected an ultrasuede fabric, based on its durability, ability to hold up to stains, and it wasn't too bad on price. Jon & Gina took our old, worn out seat cushions with them, and brought them back about a week later -- but there was one major difference when they returned....the seats were BEAUTIFUL! The quality and service these guys deliver is truly outstanding. Give them a call!
