We have a leather sofa that is at least 25 years old. They are in very good condition, except that the seat cushions got very soft after all of these years, so you sat really low in the sofa. The back cushions also got a little flat and the appearance of the sofa looked a little lumpy and not very neat. We took the cushions in to see what it would cost to replace the foam and fillings in the cushions. They gave us good advice and we thought the price was very reasonable (although we did not shop around for other estimates). The Lim's were also very friendly and easy to work with. Given the price of good furniture these days, we thought it was well worth the investment to replace the foam inside the cushions. It took about a week for them to complete the job. The result was that our sofa looks and feels like it is almost new again. The seating was nice and firm and very comfortable to sit in. The new foam and fillings inside the cushions also made the cushions very smooth on the outside as the new foam and fillings got out some of the wrinkles in the leather from the old cushions becoming so soft. We were so impressed with Lim's work that we brought in the cushions from our loveseat for them to work on. It turned out great as well. We now have a sofa and loveseat that looks good and comfortable again to sit in. I would recommend this place if you ever need to replace the foam and fillings inside your sofa/loveseat cushions. It was very enjoyable to work with them and the turnaround time was excellent.
Description of Work: Replace the foam cushions and fillings inside the seat and back cushions in our sofa and loveseat

It went well. They made good suggestions, and all pieces look good.

Description of Work: We had 6 vintage mid-century dining chairs reupholstered and the seats redone (new stuffing and supports). We used a 10% off deal for Angie's List members. The quality was excellent - everything looks like new and I think the new upholstery will last many, many years. My only complaint is that they added some ornamental detail (folds and trim) on the seat backs that I feel are inconsistent with the mid-century style. I think it was done because it made the upholstering easier, and I wish we had been asked first. Also, they were not able to offer much advice on the type of fabric we should choose. They have many, many books of fabric swatches, but we weren't sure what would be best for a set of dining chairs (what is washable and stain resistant?). They offered no guidance. But the cost was reasonable and the quality was good.

Description of Work: I had a living room sofa and two chairs that were about 15 years old. The fabric was still in great shape, but the cushions had gotten very broken down and they sat too low. I got estimates from several different places and found the cost of replacing the foam more then I expected. Lim's prices were right in line with everyone else, but I enjoyed meeting Andrew; he was very straight forward and even offered to let me take home a piece of the dacron wrapped foam to see if it had the expected result in my furniture. I tried it out and found it to be just what was needed. The turn-around was very quick, just a couple of days. Lim's craftsmanship was excellent and gave new life to my furniture. I will not hesitate to use him again.

Description of Work: Lim's recovered 6 teak dining chairs and they look beautiful!! Not only did they do the work but they also helped me to sort through the overwhelming supply of samples in their store to find the perfect fabric for my dining room. I will definitely go to Lim's with any future upholstery needs!

Mr. Lim was very personable and helpful with me in selecting a new fabric to reupholster our dining room chairs - backs and seats. He gave me an estimated completion date and service was completed when expected. I am very pleased with the new look of my "like new" dining room chairs.

The Lims called me and advised that my chair was done. I went to pick it up and it was sitting in their lobby. It was BEAUTIFUL. the craftsmanship and the quality was amazing. Mr Lim even touched up the legs on the chair as well. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanted upholstery work! Plus I got my 5 percent Angies Discount.
Description of Work: I took an old chair in to have it recovered, I had to pick out fabric and then leave my chair. It is hard to tell what it will look like with an 8x10 swatch.

Mr. and Mrs. Lim do exceptional work! Very beautiful, professional craftsmanship. While their prices can be on the high side of others in the same business, the final product is definitely worth it. I highly recommend them.

I got estimates from another company as well. Lim's had better fabric selection, helped more in the fabric selection process, gave good advice. They finished the project in about 10 days, 3 days ahead of the promised completion date. The quoted prices were better than the other shop (which was also highly rated on Angie's List).
Description of Work: I had new cushions made for existing rattan chairs which involved selecting new fabric and replacing the foam. I wanted firmer cushions than the previous ones and in a durable fabric.
