    some of Chang's handiwork
    Kathleen M.

    My mom is an interior designer, so I grew up with folks like Chang (the man behind Crown Upholstery) in my wheelhouse, which is pretty rad. Over the years, he's recovered all kinds of goodies for me via my mom. It's safe to say the man is an upholstery genius: he can, quite literally, do anything. I've been spoiled knowing that any nasty Craigslist find can turn in to something beautiful: all I need to do is find the fabric (which is part of the fun). Today, less than a week after dropping it off, I received a new-to-me wingchair and ottoman back from his store and I couldn't be more in love. I had found the chair on Craigslist and it really is amazing how he can transform a piece complete with any details you can think of: nailhead trim, tufting, new cushions, etc. Recovering furniture just makes sense to me: it's better for the environment, you get *exactly* what you want, and every piece of furniture has a story. If you're recovering something, Chang is your man.

    BEWARE!!!! I ordered fabric for an ottoman and two parson chairs through a well-known fine home furnishings store, whose designer recommended Mr. Chang. I was very disappointed with Crown Upholstery's workmanship. (See pictures) The designer talked with Mr. Chang who said he would make it right. The second attempt was equally disappointing. Shoddy workmanship, design not centered on chairs, and bulges and lumps throughout ottoman. I asked for a refund ($930). Mr. Chang refused. He yelled at me in the store, when I pointed out specific areas that still weren't fixed. He argued with my husband when he went to pick them up saying they were "fine" and asked each of us on separate occasions, "Are you upholsterer?" as if we shouldn't question his workmanship. I contacted my designer and took the ottoman to the store I was working with. They took one look at it, reordered ALL fabric and trim for both the chairs and ottoman, and offered to reupholster them for me at their factory at no cost! I'm forever thankful for their support and professionalism! Mr. Chang got paid for the work someone else had to redo. The store absorbed the total coat of the replacement fabric and redo. When I asked Mr. Chang about offering "top notch quality and customer satisfaction" as claimed on his website, he replied it was to his satisfaction.

    Excellent job reupholstering our stained striped armchairs! Highly, highly recommend!! Job was done in less than 2 weeks. We'll be back!

    5 Star Custom Upholstery is WONDERFUL. I had such a great…read moreexperience with them, from start to finish. They re-upholstered a day bed for me and did an absolutely beautiful job. I was also pleasantly surprised that they brought me the left over fabric, from my re-upholstery job. It is not too much, but it is enough for me to take right back to them, and order a few small accent pillows to match the daybed. (Which I plan to do soon.) They could have discarded the fabric or made pillows to sell in their shop, and I would never have known the difference. The honesty meant a lot to me. And speaking of fabric ... they have zillions of beautiful choices, in all price ranges. They were very patient with me and I am a person who does thorough research and takes her time, before I finally make a decision. I will admit a lot of places would have likely become annoyed or frustrated with me, for taking so much time and visiting the showroom to look through samples, over and over and over again, requesting pricing. But they were very kind and pleasant and willing to check pricing for me on many fabrics, many times. I also felt they charged a very fair price, especially considering the craftsmanship and turn around time and their willingness to do the pick up and drop off. The turn around time was so much faster than I expected. It was the holidays and I had to request they hold the daybed a few extra weeks for me, due to my extra traveling and holiday activities. True to form, they were very accommodating and understanding. If you find this review, consider yourself DONE looking for a quality re-upholstery business. 5 Star Custom Upholstery has earned a customer for life, in me. I think it would be impossible to find a better experience anywhere else.

    These guys are the best. Their work is top-shelf. Amazing…read more I highly recommend getting a quote on any furniture you need to have recovered or repaired. Support local businesses!

I brought an old Fairfield leather office chair that I paid $25 at a second hand store. I knew the brand very well, so I knew its worth (try $1,500-$3,500 easily). I saw past the ripped seat, and I thought that it would be less expensive to have the seat re-leathered than to purchase a new chair in the same brand which is true in theory; however, the price of the leather panels were far beyond what I wanted to pay for a chair that I only wanted to place into my work office space, so I didn't want to invest a lot of money. Alex helped me search through fabric swatches and I found what I thought was unique and went with my theme of traditional elegance with a touch of interesting movements in that space. Viola! Mag's had what I was looking for, and Alex gave me price that was fair. He told me I could pay when I returned and I left with his word that he would call me in a couple of weeks. True to his word, Alex called me and I dropped in to pick up my baby. I was so pleasantly surprised and pleased when I saw the beautiful new seat cushion. Alex is simply a wonderful artist with a eye for perfection because he added a little more padding to provide the right depth the seat needed to the final sewing. I almost did not recognize the cushion if it weren't for the fabric. Alex and his genius hands made this seat cushion sparkle. I highly recommend Mag's for your refurbishing desires of any seat you need. Alex is a master at his craft and clearly he takes pride in his work. I am already thinking about something else I may want to do in the future. Thank you Alex and Mag's Upholstery!

They seemed very knowledgable and professional. I was told the turnaround would be 2-3 weeks. I put down a deposit and then a storm delayed the pickup. I, of course, understand that weather is out of everyone's control and will cause delays. in NC storms are rarely even a week long event. But 3 weeks later my furniture had still not been picked up. I contacted the company and was told they could pick it up in a few days, would give me $100 off the price and would turn it around in 2 weeks. I explained that I was moving in 5 weeks, so I would need them to commit to the 2 weeks. I waited another week before the pieces were finally picked up. I immediately got a bill for the balance and there was no $100 credit. 3 weeks later I contacted them again to confirm the delivery and was told they needed a few more days, which I agreed to. then a week later I called and told them I needed the pieces in 4 days. there was no apology but they said they would commit to deliver the pieces the day of my move in the morning. they did not deliver until 4:00 pm. I immediately got a bill for the full amount due, no $100 discount again and a charge for replacing 5 pieces of wood which they did NOT replace. I am, of course quite disappointed in the lack of honesty, commitment and professionalism. The work itself was ok, but well below my expectations. I would not use them, if I were you

Because I was not given anything in writing, I checked back twice both in person and on the phone to reconfirm the date of service. A pick up time of 4pm was confirmed. The day before I received a call from someone I could barely understand and was told the pick up would now be at noon the next day. Two men arrived in a van and took my sofa and the expensive, custom ordered fabric, along with a check. Later the same day the son of the owners at Ace called to make sure I was home because they were on the way to pick up my sofa! I was shocked to learn they had no knowledge of the earlier pick up! After much confusion I was told that they had indeed sent someone else to pick up my sofa and were sub contracting the work without my knowledge or consent. They would not tell me who these people were or where their shop was located, but assured me the work would be completed on time and to my satisfaction. The sofa was delivered yesterday and I'm extremely dismayed at the quality of the work. Seams along the piping are now puckered where they were once smooth. My beautiful, $95/yard fabric and $750 in labor wasted. Do NOT trust these people with your furniture.
