Amazing Job!
pam p.

I can not express my gratitude for finding Freddie! He's the best, great prices, great workmanship! He tells you exactly when he'll get it done and he does. If you need any furniture upholstered in Los Angeles or San Fernando Valley go to him, trust me you will not regret it! See the before and after of my two arm chairs, the picture speaks for it self... I'm just speechless, the detail and craftsmanship of his work is perfection!

new window seat and matching pillows by ABC Upholstering
PickyWhiteGu Y.

THE SHORT: ABC is a one man shop. The owner/operator, Freddy, has literally grown up in the business. While the majority of his work is with designers on commercial orders (hotels, restaurants, etc.), if you're lucky, he can squeeze you in on the side. We used him to make us a window seat for our bay window and we are very pleased. We would recommend Freddy highly for all your upholstery needs. THE LONG: We found Freddy on Angie's List where he was "A" rated, and the reviews indicated his pricing was very reasonable. We had him come out to our house to survey the potential job and he quoted us a price of $225 for the seat, which is about 10 feet long. Once we agreed to hire him , he measured the available space. A couple days later, he cut a plywood template at his shop, covered that with a high quality foam (not the crap they sell at JoAnn's) and wrapped it in a fabric, which we supplied. He also put buttons throughout to reduce the risk of the fabric getting loose over time. When he called to tell us the seat was ready for installation, he mentioned he had extra fabric leftover, so we also had him make 4 small pillows to match at $20 each. Roughly 10 days after we placed the order, he arrived at our house on time for our scheduled appointment and installed the seat which fit perfectly. All in all, this was a very stressless vendor experience and, as someone who has dealt with probably 50 or more vendors over the past 3+ years of extensive home renovating, I found it to be a pleasant change.

My vintage chair, reupholstered by Freddie Abel.

Freddie is a super star craftsmen! His work is immaculate and he is a pleasure to deal with. I did a lot of research before I found him, the quote he provided was the most reasonable and after meeting Freddie in person I knew he was the one to reupholster my vintage chair. He is a great person and very knowledgeable, he provided the exact estimate for how much fabric I was going to need and since it was an expensive fabric that was important. When my chair was finished and Freddie brought it over I couldn't be more happier to see the final result - the chair was stunning! It was one thing to imagine it and having to find the right fabrics and another to actually see the chair live and done with such a high standard of quality and craftsmanship! Freddie also made stunning throw pillows for me and I also plan to reupholster my dining chairs with him. Please have no hesitation and hire Freddie for your upholstery project!

Freddie is professional and pleasant to deal with. He repaired a unique recliner chair and I'm happy with the end results.

BEFORE Freddy!

Freddy does AMAZING work. So beautiful. I found two vintage slipper chairs at the Salvation Army, they were a pretty harsh sight to see.... crushed orange velvet! But they had potential! I emailed photos to about 10 upholsterers to get a quote, and his was the most reasonable. Along with the best price, and great reviews on Yelp, I brought the fugly chairs to Freddy. WOW! Even my boyfriend who HATED the chairs beforehand, thought they were gorgeous after Freddy worked his magic. You cannot go wrong with this man, he knows what he is doing! And he even dropped them off to our home when they were finished, right on time!

Before Freddy . . .

Had Freddy do a couch and 2 chairs. They were an absolute mess and now they look absolutely AMAZING. Freddy was reachable, easy to work with, reasonably priced, and delivered when he said he would. I would use him again in a second. THANK YOU Freddy!!!

The window cushion is extremely well made

See all

“Freddie could even date the relatively decade of our chairs because of the materials used at that time.”

RESTORE THAT CAT-DESTROYED FURNITURE AND MAKE IT CAT PROOF. Joanne is the very best at what she…read moredoes, and she's also a Los Angeles character you need to meet in person. She was a wizard at assisting us in choosing a cat-proof fabric to restore our beloved Room & Board sleeper sofa (it has the best sleeper mattress by far). Joanne has experience in cat-proofing with her own little critters, and she swore by the fabric that looked great after 7 years and counting in her house. It definitely gave us confidence, even knowing how destructive our little critters can be. Joanne was extremely responsive and most of our communication was accomplished remotely, but we also benefited greatly from visiting the office and going through fabrics. She gave us a competitive price that INCLUDED pickup and delivery, which is a rarity these days and made for an UNBEATABLE price. The sleeper sofa was no easy task for delivery, but Joanne's crew was amazing in bringing it back in pieces and reassembling on the spot! Perfectly done. The quality of the upholstering work is impeccable. Joanne's team did such a good job that we now know the areas where Room & Board skimped, as Joanne's team did not skimp! They went above and beyond, and somehow the aforementioned sleeper mattress is even MORE comfortable. I really can't say enough about the job Valley Upholstering did. They should give all furniture manufacturers a Ted Talk on marketing cat-proof products in the first instance.

Went to his shop for pricing four months ago and he was supposed to call when he gets the fabric…read more Two months later called him no answer and I texted him asking about the order- he replies sending pictures of available fabrics-which means the two months went in waste. Then I pick a fabric and ask him to contact me asap when he gets the fabric. Funny... but not funny I'm still waiting for him to call or text me. Whoever doesn't believe me- I have my texts back and forth. Such a waste of my time and effort

My recliner lift chair had no power and it was in the remote…read more Henry the repair man called to set up the time and he was on time and very courteous. His quality is excellent and had me sit in the chair to make sure all the controls are working. I will definitely ask for Henry if I need service again.

They charged me $125 to fix a lift recliner that they did not fix. It's impossible to reach anyone…read morein this company and they don't stand behind their work. Now I have to find a different company to help and this company stole money from me. I will NEVER use them again nor do I recommend them. This company's communication came out to repair a lift recliner chair. The technician, a very nice man, reported that the problem was a wire under the chair. He claimed to have repaired the wire and fixed the chair. I paid him $125. The next morning, when the chair was used again, it once again failed to decline after lifting. I called the company back and reported the chair was not fixed. They got back to me two days later. Then they requested more pictures of the chair in order to schedule a technician to return. I sent them immediately via email. I also told them via email, voicemail & text that it was the Control Box under the chair and to have the technician bring a control box on his vehicle. The company never acknowledged this information. And the technician did NOT have a control box with him when he showed up a week later. Once there, he reported it was indeed the control box and he now had to order the part which could take up to two weeks to receive and 2-4 weeks to come back and install it. AND he wanted to charge me an additional $185 for the part. Their rate for a diagnostic is supposed to be $50. I paid $125 already. And 2-4 weeks? This chair is my mom's only chair and it still doesn't work. Wtf did I pay for? So...instead of fixing the chair, I decided not to. Why sink over $300 into an old chair when a new chair is less than $500? That makes no sense. This company's customer service is non-existent. They don't answer their phone and everything is robotic about the experience. While the technician was nice enough, he did not do the job correctly and preferred to argue when I called him out on it. I maintain that I will not use them again.
