I would not claim to be Steve's 1st customer, nor to know him well. I am 90 yo and was given the…read moregift of a custom pair of sandals when he was on Euclid a very long time ago. I am probably among his first customers, when he had the Euclid shop. This was in the hey days of the CWE, Flamingo Cafe, Europa, Balaban's, Culpepper's and others. I wanted a sandal with no back strap and with Steve's input, I got my first pair of custom sandals. The toe strap finally broke, and an identical new pair was purchased when the shop was on Delmar. The third pair was purchased while he was in Belleville. I wore and still wear these sandals virtually every day that the weather allows. Cheaper, accepted by the masses, but classless, flip-flops have never had a place in my closet. I don't need new sandals, but I need Steve's skill to see if he can salvage a Mary Francis purse in which the "leather" shoulder strap, cracked, peeled, chipped and is unusable, as it is. I believe anything that you buy from Steve will be as well made and your experience will make you believe that there are still people who don't accept mediocrity in their products.

It was 10" before closing time,and I acknowledged that fact, telling him I had a question and needed professional advice. He carefully examined my piece, advised that it didn't need repair and explained how to get the zippers working smoothly again. Character and craftsmanship seem to be decreasing in supply these days in service professions. This gentleman's bedside manner may not be off the charts, but (judging from the shoes someone picked up before me), he is a skilled and very honest craftsman. I will definitely patronize this business the next time I need this kind of service.

The owner and operator of this store is his own man. I, like everyone else, found out he is a bit…read moredifferent. However, a calm conversation and agreement with him on everything worked fine. After all, I wanted him to do a job that no one in Florida could do. Mrs. K.'s favorite travel bag is a Samsonite. Although this bag is no longer made, she found an almost new one on eBay. This bag fits perfectly under an airplane seat. It lays flat and opens from the top. One problem with it is the hard wheels. No one wants to clack, clack, clack as they walk through the airport. Now you know why I wanted to fix the wheels. Brentwood offered a rollerskate wheel that fits perfectly. The wheel will outlast the luggage and, more than likely, Mrs. K and me. When you want something, you pay. He charged us a total of $100 for the wheels. If you want it, you will pay. We wanted it. Part of the price was to have a "rush job" which took, , about two weeks. The job was perfect, and Mrs. K. was happy.

We needed a set of 4 MCM teak vintage dining chairs reupholstered after we had continued to use…read morethem all through COVID and beyond while the foam disintegrated and fell apart. They had been poorly DIY-upholestered by the previous owner and we used them that way for years and let them get into really bad shape. We were referred to Hugo by the staff at Green Shag, who recommended text message as the best way to get in touch as it's easier for English/Spanish translation and communication. I text Hugo a photo of the chairs and he sent me a quote and instructions on how much fabric would be needed the same day. Hugo provided the foam, and we dropped off the chairs and fabric on a Tuesday. The chairs were completed by Sunday. They are beautifully done and I felt that the cost was more than fair and a great value. We would definitely enlist Hugo's help again whenever we next have upholstery needs.

I tried a few other places before I found Hugo and either they were unresponsive or their timeline was too long. I searched Google and found a great review for Hugo. I texted him and he promptly texted back. I brought the fabric to him on a Weds and by Monday my pillows were done. To say he is fantastic is an understatement, he is also unfailingly honest. His prices are also unbeatable. I gave him extra because I felt he should have charged more. (I know, right? In this day and age!!!) Just great from beginning to end.

At premium cost I bit the bullet to try them out as they have materials on inventory. I brought in…read moretwo chairs to upholster while I hold on to four from a set of six. Total cost for two chairs is $460. Job took two weeks plus additional three days to correct an error on the material. As I internalize self reprimand for being lazy (I could have done it myself for three weeks and for slightly less considering I have tools), I admire their craftsmanship. Am just a little upset because I had to work on another pick-up week that was inconvenient for my already hectic schedule. Bring your chair and canvas for pricing - you are not obligated if you disagree with cost. I want to emphasize, upholstery was done with care and skill. The crew was helpful and friendly. Another important note, if you have your own fabric or leather to use, this can save you at least $70 per square yard.
