They let me take several fabric sample books home to see what colors worked best with the table and dining room. When I was ready to schedule the work, they ordered the fabric right away (took about 1 week to ship out to their shop). I dropped the chair seats off while I cleaned and polished up the wood. I dropped off the chairs about a week later and they attached the completed seats within a few days. The finished product looks really nice and is much more comfortable with the new padding. Wish I would have had those chairs re-covered sooner!
Description of Work: Removed old fabric from Grandma's antique dining room chairs (6), added 1" foam and layer of 1 oz Dacron and covered with Bequest Allspice upholstery. Re-glued 3 chairs where the legs were loose. The upholstery selected was from the Robert Allen Traditional Wovens and is a crypton fabric that "wears like iron."

The job was a little more difficult because the frame of the sofas were upholstered in a different fabric from the cushions. A&T were careful to consult me about the coordination of the fabrics and the detailing of the sofas.
Description of Work: Reupholstered two sofas. One sofa was restructured to match the frame of the other.

I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM. IT IS A FAMILY BUSINESS. THEY ARE VERY CUSTOMER FOCUSED. REUPHOLSTERING THINGS IS VERY EXPENSIVE IN GENERAL, YOU JUST HAVE TO BE VERY COMMITTED TO DOING IT. THE PRICE OF DOING IT IS EXPENSIVE IN GENERAL.
Description of Work: WE HAD THE COUCH REUPHOLSTERED.
