    Amazing job!!! After years of tough wear in my home, my grandmother's sofa was in desperate need of…read morerepair and new upholstery. I'm not sure how old the sofa is but it definitely needed someone who could handle an old piece and restore it to its original condition. After reading the reviews here, I took it to Rawson's and was so happy I did. My sofa is beautiful and all frame damage has been repaired. I was even given the option to come check out the cushion thickness and stiffness to make sure it was what I wanted. The fabric I chose was not an easy one to work with but the pattern match is perfect and I love how this old sofa has found new life!! Communication was wonderful, chatted through texts and calls.

    A sane person might take one look at Rawson's rather dingy, unkempt storefront in downtown San…read moreMarcos and ask, "Hmmmm....do I want to trust these guys with reupholstering my couch?" Let me answer that: Yes, you really do. We brought to them a curve-backed monstrosity of a sofa that we picked up at Goodwill for a song. It was a Victorian channel-back thing with horsehair cushions and it weighed 9,000 pounds. I think it had car shocks for springs. The sofa had spent a few terrifying months in our old, falling down shed and I'd be shocked if critters hadn't built a little subdivision in its undercarriage. (The old shed had rats. Lots and lots of rats. I'll just leave it at that.) Total Woman picked out some modern, funky upholstery and had Rawson's switch the channel-back design for a tufted back. They also tightened the strapping and restuffed the cushions. It was an overhaul, pure and simple. It took many months, but we weren't in a hurry and they knew it. Occasionally, we'd get a phone call with a question or two. On a couple of occasions, they asked us to drop by to confirm that they were going in the right direction. These guys clearly cared. When it was done, Rawson's showed up at our door and carried the sofa in. The owner -- not a young man himself -- and his father did the hauling. Combined age? I'd say 140. I'm not kidding. It was a sight to behold, but impressive. They would not accept help from me. The work was beautiful, and they made a broken-down couch extremely comfortable. So if you go, don't let the environs worry you. Rawson's is housed in a 90-year-old building built for a Model T dealership. Here, you will not be met with an overwhelming sense of order. It's a warehouse vibe, and a messy one at that. Supplies and furniture are everywhere. But who cares? They do great work. Our neighbors, whose home was built in 1913, trusted Rawson's to upholster their walls. Twice. Their WALLS, for God's sake. Now that says something.

    Great service on a leather seat repair. Quality job done on time. Thank you Francisco!read more

    Great customer service initially. Needed cushions refilled…read morewith FIRM foam. Give samples that were many years old to choose from. Turn around time was great and I didn't mind paying more. Cushions were filled with foam that felt like what I had before. Emailed twice to share feedback and ask for suggestions. Ignored both times. Person who ran my debit card tried to illegally charge a fee for using a debit card and was quite argumentative. Initial fee for credit card was 4%. Most places charge 2-3%. You're not allowed to make money off cc fees. Overall, cannot recommend bc I didn't get what I paid for. Replies to business response: Would you like to clarify how old the samples were that I was given? I said I wanted something close to cement but with a little give. Given that the samples provided were so old (you stated his multiple times) I thought what I would receive would be much firmer. You also shared that the most firm sample wasn't much more firm than the one I chose so why pay the difference. Regarding payment, I absolutely used a credit card for the first payment. I had to ask for the breakdown as it was not provided by you initially. When I paid the remaining balance in person it was with a debit card. It IS illegal to charge a fee when paying with a debit card and I made the person checking me out fully aware so that hopefully you change your business practice so that a future customer doesn't report your business to the AG. I did not threaten you, your company, or the person who handled the final transaction. As far as questioning what could be done after having spent approx $350 on foam that wasn't any better than what I had previously, I was looking for communication, but after ignoring two emails I decided to write a review. Maybe try communicating with folks rather than ignoring them.
