I purchased a chair that was in major need of repair. After much searching, I found Harry C…read moreJohnson & Son. I was already attached to the chair and wanted to make sure it was repaired correctly. They did an amazing job! They took my chair apart, re-glued it, reinforced it and repaired one of the legs, that was barely hanging on. They also gave me some ideas about reupholstering it. I got a good lesson on why not to try filling my little chair with down feathers and I'm very thankful for that. For the work they did, it cost $150. That may seem like a bit much, but the work was quality and I really do love my little chair. Take a look at the pics. The one where it is just wood is what it looked like when I got it back from being repaired.

We had a leather recliner sofa that had issues with the foam on one side and a broken frame. The…read moreframe had broken some years ago and was previously repaired, but the repair had either failed or started sagging as that side of the sofa was noticeably lower. UR Fabrics quoted us a reasonable price and pickup and delivery fee so we went with them. We now have our sofa back and the repair came out much better than we hoped! They also were able to do a decent cleaning job, which was not really the reason it was sent in. We now expect to get many more years of service out of this sofa. UR Fabrics was very easy to work with, provided very prompt communications throughout the entire process and delivered more than they promised! I highly recommend them and will use them again should I need furniture repair in the future.

I discovered Upholstery Restoration & Select Fabrics based on reviews I saw online and I couldn't…read morebe happier with the outcome. The back of my accent chair was badly damaged in a recent move. I wanted to salvage the chair using existing fabric but didn't believe that to be possible especially since the chair is 5 years old and the fabric was nowhere to be found. After months of looking at other swatch samples that weren't measuring up, I found the same fabric for sale on eBay. I had planned to work with a reupholstery shop closer to where I live but that shop indicated they had to do a full reupholstery and couldn't repair just the damaged section. Dave confirmed they could fix the damaged area at what I thought was a reasonable price. They managed to restore the chair to its original state. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again should the need arise!

Highly recommend this place and will be back.

He picked the table up and returned it. For those of you who do not know what a drum table is, the center of the table goes around. Mine was badly broken causing the top to be very tilted. I told Mr Burkett, if he could not fix the table to turn and just have the top be connected to the part that turns, I would have him do the job. He came over and looked at it and said he was pretty confident he could fix it. I also have my grandmother's secretary and one of the doors was too warped to close, he fixed that too and now it closes perfectly.

I asked Fabian to repair a dining room chair that had broken into five pieces. He was able to fix…read moreit but he used the wrong finish. He only needed to finish the broken pieces but he even sanded and finished some pieces he didn't have to. By definition, a dining room chair goes with a set so it no longer matched the set. (This was antique and a family heirloom.) He was not able to acknowledge the mistake. He attempted to add some gloss but this was inadequate. I took the chair home, took several pictures with the matching chairs and emailed him in more detail about the problem. He did not apologize but did say I could bring it back in. He asked me to bring in another chair for comparison, even though the original chair had plenty of places where he could see the original finish and I had sent several pictures. So he put the burden on me to load two dining room chairs into my car and get back to him. He did not offer to pick it up. In the end, I didn't return. I thought the error was so basic that I didn't trust him to fix it. However, he did successfully fix the broken chair and, if you take him a stand-alone piece that doesn't have to match a set and you're flexible about the finish, I believe he could do the job.
