 + -1 moreIt was not inexpensive, but based on the research I did, it was a fair price for very high quality work. Gil Pons - one of the owners - came to my apartment to give me an estimate. He was very knowledgeable about antique furniture and clearly took pride in his work. He advised me on what types of fabrics would be appropriate for the period of my pieces, as well as what would wear well and look good. He also gave me advice after he delivered the finished pieces on how to care for them. In order to make the cost more manageable for me, he reupholstered my couch first, then my chair, since I couldn't afford to pay for both at once. I was consistently pleased in all my interactions with the expertise and professionalism of this company.
Description of Work: I used Gilbert's Upholstery to have an antique sofa and chair that I bought off Craigslist reupholstered. The pieces were in good shape structurally, but needed new cushions, springs, padding, and upholstery. The craftsmen stripped the pieces down to the frame and redid everything. They also did some light touching up on the frame's finish.
