I needed a new headboard for my bed and wanted to keep costs low. I found several upholstery shops on Yelp, but their prices were very high. After speaking with Alan, I immediately knew his shop was the right choice. He is genuinely honest, kind, and incredibly thoughtful. And his prices? Unbeatable! My headboard looks amazing, with a clean, beautiful finish that completely transformed the look of my bed. The entire job was completed in just two days. Alan even came to my house to pick it up and delivered it back when it was finished, which made the whole process so convenient. Thank you, Alan! I highly recommend this place. read more

NOTE THEIR NEW LOCATION! We've used Alan, Pat and their hard working team for years, and they always deliver very high quality outcomes! We've recently had bar stools covered, but in the past had larger projects (cushions that needed to be designed to fit our breakfast nook and a couch. In each case we get proper measurements and excellent work. Quickly too! Definitely recommend. read more

$100 (project - reupholstered, 2 dining room chairs) Carlson's Upholstery monologue: I found dining room chairs, on offerUp, that matoffered, style of chairs that I currently had. The current chairs are patterned and have multiple colors. I decided that I liked the dark blue in them and wanted to place that on the new chairs. After some searching and reading reviews on Yelp, I decided on this business. I took the chairs to Carlson's and was given the opportunity to pick from an array of options. I found what I wanted and 2 days later, I was pulling my blue seated chairs up to the dining room table to enjoy a meal. When I decide to reupholster something else, Carlson's Upholstery will be my only stop! P.S. - depending on what time you get there, you may be able to witness the workers in action. It's quite a sight. The before and after results are quite impressive. Oh and cash is a very acceptable form of payment. read more

I've never had furniture redone before, since I've never had furniture not made out of particle board crap like stuff from IKEA. Since I inherited a nice piece of furniture from a beloved family member, I wanted to have it restored to its former glory. Over a couple of weeks, I worked with Alan and Pat to come in and view fabrics (multiple times) to get an idea of what I wanted and begin the project. I asked a ton of questions about styles, durability, stand up to use and general wear, what is best for a home with pets, etc. I knew I'd be the one that would take the longest with my decision making, but once my mind was made up, they were able to order the fabric, pick up the chair, have it done and delivered in less time than was quoted and under my budget. They made sure they were transparent with all steps of the process, gave me clear expectations about the entire thing, and keep me updated on the process, which kept me at ease throughout. The chair had some minor damages to it going in, but coming home, they delivered what appeared to be a brand-new chair. The quality was second to none, with outstanding attention to detail. Alan heeded my special requests, specifically with the density of the foam in the chair (was sagging before) and with the arm covers to be made with extra fabric). They did an outstanding job, and if any other quality furniture comes my way, I am sure I'll take it back to Carlson's. read more

Decided to get new dining room chair cushions. My set is 30 years old but it's built so well and in good shape I wanted to keep it but my cushions were destroyed from wear and tear. I stopped by Carlsons and met with the owner who gave me a tour of his shop. I brought just one chair since all 6 are identical. Lots of fabrics to choose from and you can get different thickness/firmness of cushions. Phenomenal service and really great price. $440 for 6 very high quality brand new custom chair pads. Absolutely love my new cushions! Highly recommend!! read more

I was looking for an upholstery place and did my homework. After going through several places and reading reviews, I chose this shop. I'm so glad I did. I brought a chair that had been sitting outside under the weather, I asked for a very firm cushion and a very good material they have a wide variety of fabrics, and the suggestions were just what I wanted, the price is reasonable and after the chair I brought an ottoman to be done in the same cushion and fabric as well as the chair the results were amazing, it surpassed my expectations. All I have to say is thank you for a well-done job. Just keep up with the great work you are doing, I definitely will continue to come back and recommend you to family and friends. I'm so thrilled that there are still people like you working on this field, my hat off to you, and your shop. read more

Alan & his team did another excellent job for us making a custom fireplace bench cover. They also had an acceptable fabric on hand so the cushion could be made quickly. The shape was also a perfect fit into a couple of sharp 90 degree corners in the back (see the attached photos). Thanks again to Carlson & their skilled craftsmen. 10/10 would (and have) recommend them. read more

very helpful with a reupholsteryproject and I am delighted with the finished job. we are going back to get more done very soon.

Alan and his team did an amazing job restoring two 1940's club chairs! And we were amazed the order was ready in days.

Went in to get a quote for new cushions for our outdoor furniture. Our furniture was originally bought at Target. The cushions were raggedy, but the bones were still good. Rather than buy all new stuff, we decided to wet quotes for just the cushions. These cushions were far superior than our originally "made in China" ones. Wow. What a difference. They don't sink down, these are actually thick and sturdy. Turnaround time was great. We dealt with Pat and he was amazing. So patient and kind. I would come back here in a heartbeat. read more

We were referred by our neighbor who said nothing but great things about Carlson upholstery. We came in to get a rush job for cushions on a sailboat. We were quoted an amazing price so we went for it. However, when we came to pick them up, he realized that they had inserted the same foam into the new fabric so the cushions still smelled of stink we were trying to get rid of the boat. We were on a time crunch and only had one day to get the new cushion so we could leave for our trip scheduled for an entire month on a boat . Alan was great and worked with us and got us our cushions in a 24 hour turnaround time but a small additional charge of $200 which we are happy to pay . Thank you for the great service and the cushions look amazing. We will definitely refer you and be back. read more

We had two chairs reupholstered by Carlson Upholstery. They did a fantastic job! Pat was super helpful and knowledgeable. Helped us pick fabric in the store and even picked up the chairs and delivered them when finished. It took about a week and we couldn't be happier. I have no hesitation in recommending them if you are in the market. read more

I went here to get my dining chairs redone due to Costco's cheap material used on the seats. The chairs and table are great, but the seats were made of very thin vinyl. I went there and the gentleman told me how much verbally. I filled out the paperwork and dropped off 4 chairs. He said to drop the rest on Monday and they can knock them out by Wednesday. On Wednesday they called and said they were all ready. I went and he applied a newer sturdier cushion and a very nice vinyl on top of it. My wife and I are very satisfied with their work and will come back here again. read more

Pat and Alan did a great job on our very large sectional. We had them reupholster, remove all the feathers in the back cushions and replace with their foam. There were many fabric options to choose from at their warehouse. They were able to pick up earlier than we thought and it did take about 2 weeks, but the sectional was huge and they were doing a lot so we knew it was going to be time consuming. We asked for it to look exactly the same as the original in regards to the pleating on the arms and the edges of the cushions. We're very happy with their work and the whole process. They did exactly what we asked for. It was pricey, but worth it. Would totally recommend. read more

Very nice guys there, and love that it is a family business open since the 30's, that has been passed down father to son. I brought them my mother-in-law's mid century modern sofa, chair and ottoman and they did a great job on them. She was very happy that her old favorites were given a beautiful overhaul! Huge selection of fabrics to choose from. (Almost too many since I liked so many of them it was hard to choose.) They took about a week total to order the fabric and do the re-upholstering. We will be bringing more items to have them re-cover in the near future. Very happy with their quality work! Highly recommend! read more

Pat guided me through the process of finding the correct material and style for my dining room chairs. I am very happy with their workmanship and professionalism. He offered to pick them up and delivered them to my house without charge. I will definitely use their services again and highly recommend them. The cost was very reasonable as well. read more

This place was a lifesaver!!! Truly, if you get a sofa from one of these crappy furniture stores (looking at you, Jerome's) and it looks bad after just a year, take it to Carlson's for new life! I got a couch from Jerome's and after a year, the cushions looked like a family of 10 had been sitting on them. Disappointed, I called Jerome's to replace the cushions and six months later, they finally sent the right cushions. However, they gave me no way to insert them into the couch covers. Oy. After rubbing the skin off my hand trying to insert these massive L-shaped cushions into tight couch covers, I was beyond frustrated. Enter Carlson! I called them, asked if they could set these cushions right and they immediately jumped in. Pat took care of the problem in less than 24hrs and my cushions looked like they had never been disturbed. Pat is a wizard and I will definitely be back for other stuff I need reupholstered. Thank you to Pat and the team at Carlson! read more

Did a great job reupholstering my chair cushions. Reasonable price & prompt turnaround.

First time customer, definitely will return. I got my couch back cushions restuffed, they are better than new. . . . and it only took one day. read more

Very happy with the results of having our couch and ottoman recovered. Pat was easy to work with and accommodating. Definitely recommend.

Carlson's Upholstery is the best upholstery and most affordable upholstery around. The couple of people that gave one star I would suggest you give them another try again because when you contacted them that was during the pandemic and they were probably overwhelmed. The owner is so nice and kind. I had my ottoman done and it turned out beautiful. I also had my pillow cushions in my sofa redone and it turned out beautiful as well. It saved me from buying a new sofa. read more

Alan was a joy to work with. He is very knowledgeable, courteous, and communicative. I ordered polyethylene leather-like fabric from a separate vendor and asked Alan to create bench cushions with specific stitching. He delivered on time and for a reasonable price. The work is quality. I will definitely use Carlson's Upholstery for my future upholstery needs. The scope of work was a bit complicated. Alan came by my house 3 times to measure and make sure the cushions would fit perfectly. I appreciate his diligence and excellent customer service. Thank you, Alan!! read more

We took some chairs to be reupholstered and are very happy with how it turned out. Great quality, great craftsmanship. I only dinged one star because it took some additional effort on our part to remind Mr. Carlson that we were waiting and waiting. It took about 2 months after being originally quoted for him to work on our project and one time when we called it seemed like he had completely forgotten about our order. Once he began working on the project it was actually done rather quickly and like I said, he does great work! read more

Carlson's Upholstery - My sofa done in a velvet so happy with the results !! - Furniture Reupholstery Near Me - Paramount, California

We are very pleased with Mr. Carlson's work in restoring my set of 4 swivel bar stools with arms made by Darafeev years ago. They cleaned the chairs and reupholstered them with the fabric of my choice, and now they look like new again. The project was completed swiftly within two weeks. I love seeing things get restored and refurbished, especially things that were made to last. After years of use, the outside is worn, but the integrity remains. It makes sense to restore your well-made furniture instead of buying cheap throw-away ones. Thank you, Mr. Carlson !! A big shout-out to his workers, too ! read more

Carlson Upholstery have completed a few projects for me recently - covering dining room chairs and also covering a lounge suite and ottomans. They have a wide range of fabric types, colors and patterns from which to choose. They also provided me with great advice on practical issues I was having such as: - strengthening of the dining room chair legs and new bases and foam in the seats. - improving the seating height for the lounge suite as this was a bit low for modern times (they suggested replacing the legs under each piece with new legs that are two to three inches higher so that sitting down or standing up is easier). They provided quick service and I did make use of their pick-up and drop-off service for the larger lounge suite set. The furniture looks GREAT and I am very happy with the quality of work on these very old furniture pieces. (The lighting in the photos does not do justice to the color or shades - Draylon and velvet-type fabrics do that - it looks fantastic in reality). read more

Alan (the owner) and his team are incredibly personable. They understand what customer service means. They are ready to please, let's just put it that way. Love this old fashioned way of doing business. You don't pay until the furniture is done, no down payments or anything...complete trust system. You can bring a picture of your furniture into the shop and he'll give you a quote based upon the piece and the fabric you choose. They then will come to your home to pick up your old furniture with their truck and as soon as it is reupholstered they will schedule a time to deliver it to you. We had a love seat, and recliner done and they did a fabulous job. We also had them replace the foam in the cushions in our already good sofa (they were willing to re-stuff the cushions for us since they had flattened with time). Their style is firm, they like to reupholster cushions and back of sofa nice and firm, which is how we like it as it will last for a long time. Their service is quick; the love seat took 4 days and the recliner took 8 days. If we ever need re upholstery again, we'll go back to Carlson Upholstery for sure. *Side note: No matter where you get your furniture done the materials that are used (the foam) has formaldehyde as well as other chemicals in the fabric (this is standard in the industry), you won't die, but for those like me with sensitivities to chemicals I had to open the windows every day for about a month before the fumes went away. I have to do this with new furniture and rugs no matter where I buy them from. Not everyone will be sensitive to the chemicals like me though. read more

I have a vintage fainting couch from the 70s. It's a theatrical couch and has been in storage for 10 years. I called around and found Carlsons upholstery. I spoke to a few places, but Alan showed the most interest in making sure the couch was restored to its former glory. I went to the shop to choose my fabric - he spent time going over exactly what I wanted and worked to stay in my budget. He picked it up and delivered it back to me. The final result was everything I wanted and he went above and beyond. I'm really happy to have my couch back and beautiful. I highly recommend the service. read more

Ok. . . Goodness. . . Worth every penny. They go above and beyond I the arena of Service. I love dealing with family owned business. They were very transparent by letting me know up front the cost would exceed what I'd spend on a new set, gave great advice, and were patient with me in regards to my many questions and wanting to see the results midway through the process. What I received back was a beautiful, basically rebuilt living room set. Beautiful fabric, firmer cushions, customizations I requested (zippers on all pillows for washability). I definitely recommend Carlson. Beautiful people to work with. (My pictures don't do it justice, but they're better than anything I saw in the furniture stores!) read more

I had 4 dining chairs upholstered, OUTSTANDING job! A unbelievable price. FAST service!

I looked at a number of upholstery shops prior to choosing Carlson Upholstery. The work is outstanding and the quality superior to many high end brand new pieces of furniture. I am in the process of redoing our home and with these couches it can be in a magazine shoot. I also want to point out that Mr. Carlson provided much guidance as to details and fabrics. Please see the pictures and judge for yourself. Truthfully they do not do the finished work justice. read more
