Len is definitely a skilled craftsman, and I'm so glad I was looking for someone close by! He's tucked away on a mid-block dead-end alley. He was so helpful and understanding about how much $ repair I was asking for, for my old chair. He took good care of both me and my chair, and peeking around his small workshop as we talked, I could see he was someone to recommend for anyone with upholstered furniture repairs- or maybe any furniture, I'm not sure! Len seems quite busy, he'll get back to you! read more

I had two old chairs, one in really bad shape. He took them for several weeks and brought them back better than I could have ever imagined. I would recommend this business to anyone looking for an honest, responsive, and highly skilled reupholsterer. read more

Len did an incredible job restoring two leather chairs for us. The chairs have been in the family for forty years and had been shredded by pets. I wish that I still had the before photos but this is the after. We need more amazing craftsmen like Len! read more

Len has done some work for me on three other occasions, and he's just great. He's working with me now to reupholster my couch. He's been incredibly patient with me even though we are two months into me trying to choose a fabric. He just keeps coming to my house and leaving samples on my porch. What a great guy! read more

Len is amazing! I called him up to see if he could help us in a pre-holiday pinch with an upholstery repair for a sofa cushion. Within hours, we were at his shop and departed completely happy with a fully functional cushion! Len provided us with incredible service, was great at communicating his availability, very generous with his time, and impressed us with his knowledge and quick resolution of the issue. Can't recommend him enough, he really helped us have a wonderful Christmas! read more

Len is a true talented gem of a craftsman. I gave him two chairs and fabric with some basic- "can you put this fabric on these chairs?" directions...In two weeks, he transformed my "meh" chairs into true show pieces. I really love what he created and his prices are unbelievably reasonable. What a great person to work with! read more

My wife and I have a mid-century modern couch that we love. Over the years it's taken a bit of a beating: two buttons on the seat cushion came loose and detached, and the two back legs buckled. We called Len and he came over the same day (he was in the neighborhood) to take a look. He gave us a quote of $35 and returned the next day with his tools. He did a beautiful job on the button and leg repairs and was in and out within an hour. He had to do a little more work than expected, so the total cost was $50--he was very apologetic. Still an incredibly reasonable price, and our couch looks and feels as good as new. I loved the fact that he was able to come to us. Since the bottom cushion does not detach from the frame, this saved us the pain of renting a truck, moving the couch, and getting it to a shop. I HIGHLY recommend him. read more

Len's Auto Upholstery I found Len on the web after searching all around downtown for someone that made seat covers for a pickup bench seat. I never found anyone, but Len said he could possibly repair the damage. After bringing the seat to him, he scoped it out and said it would be cheaper to recover the seat inside of trying to patch the 3-4 rips. He gave us a good price on the job, and was able to order the fabric the next business day with a deposit. The seat was finished the following day - he dropped it off and it looked great, better than we had discussed. He works out of his garage so I think he can keep his overhead low. It was great to support a local small business and get great service too. I would recommend him for any auto upholstery job. read more

Len does thorough and good quality work . His business is a one-man-show. I didn't care that he works from his home, and the workspace was a little messy, (but he was apologetic about it). That said, the cushions he reupholstered for me came out great! He did several little extras for free on my job with no fuss. The only drawback was that he was a little late on getting our job done. Being a one-man shop, the reality is that he may get a big job and your small job could get pushed back. Such is life. read more

Len's is awesome! Not only will he pickup your furniture but will deliver it to your home or office when completed. After calling many upholstery repair businesses nearby, Len was the most affordable for the job that was needed. I had some outdoor furniture cushions that needed to be replaced. Len had samples at his shop (in his garage) that I could look through. He gave me the best price and the labor was super low for the quality and time he put in. Found out Len was also a retired army serviceman who started his business from home which made it even more awesome. I brought back a few bar stools I bought at a garage sale and he made it look brand new with new suede. Saved me a lot of money. Len works from his shop which is his garage from home so parking was easy to park. Best way to contact him is to take a picture of the furniture you need to reupholster and tell him what you want by email, leave your name and phone number too. He replies back to you super quick! His turnaround time is much quicker than other places too if you need it back right away. Highly recommend Len. read more

I took my glider rocker to Len to have reupholstered and I was very satisfied. He was efficient, quick, and economical! I'm going to attempt to load some before and after pictures of my super comfy chair & ottoman. (I bought the fabric from a furniture store, but Len seemed to have access to various fabric designs and colors) read more

Our experience working with Len on recovering two living room chairs was exemplary. First, the quality of his work is excellent, but equally important to me is the fact that he was incredibly responsive, answering phone calls quickly and letting us know the status of our project. He arrived to pick up the chairs quickly and exactly when he said he would, and he finished them within the timetable he laid out at the beginning. On top of that, his rates seem to be better than most other upholsterers in the area. I wouldn't hesitate to work with him again. read more

I just had my couch's cushions re-stuffed by Len. So happy with his craftsmanship, speediness, and general kindness. Thank you Len!

Fabulous work! Fast, inexpensive, great work on my favorite chair! Responsive to details needed and got it right- perfect!

Wow, Great work indeed!.. I have a microfiber couch in my mancave that needed new foam. Len did an amazing job of replacing the old warn out 6 inch foam (hard to find) and I couldn't be any happier with the results. Better than brand new. Cool guy, too. read more

I was a little skeptical at first because Len does work out of his garage. But I guess this is how he keeps his over head low and prices great! Originally I was quoted for this job at a retail location about $800 & I was going to be without my cushions for 5 days. Len was able to do the entire job for under $500 with the exact product the retail store was going to use. He did it in 2 days and the project looks amazing. Would recommend him to any one! read more

I have a very large sectional in my rec room. One of the upper attached pillows had a huge hole in it. The upholstery has a floral print on black background. I called Len because of the good reviews. He picked up the one sectional with the problem, removed the upholstery on the back side to replace the damaged pillow, replaced the back with other material (it's up against a wall so okay by me) and fixed it. He delivered the reupholstered sectional and told me it was $100 less than quoted because it did not take as much time as he thought it would. He did any excellent job at an amazing honest price. A day later he called to check if I was happy with the outcome. read more

No idea what the going rate for restuffing couch cushions is, but regardless I was happy with the service here. There was a 24 hour turnover and the quality seems to be very good. read more

I had Len reupholster my sofa recently, it was overall a very positive experience. Some pros: Great quality work Reasonably priced Does pick up/drop off Len is a nice guy The only issue we had was a little communication breakdown before he actually started working on the sofa. Len's schedule got pushed back a few times. Not a big deal as long as you let me know, but I ended up having to call him a few times to try to figure out whether the set delivery day was actually happening. Once he started actively working on it the communication was great though. And I am VERY happy with how it came out! I enthusiastically recommend Len as long as you don't need super fast turnaround. read more

I'm so happy with the midcentury dining chairs that Len reupholstered for me (picture posted). They started out as white brocade and Len reupholstered them in an an aqua vinyl. His prices were super-reasonable (about half of what other reupholsters quoted me) and he definitely stands by his work. Plus, he's very nice! Things to keep in mind: Cash/check only. If you have a concrete deadline, I'd check with him to make sure he can meet it--his work is clearly in demand. read more

After reading other reviews, I called Len to recover a chair for us. I had already recovered the bottom of this chair, but couldn't wrap my head around how to do the top back cushion. I called him in the morning, he came to my house a couple hours later, gave me a fair estimate, and carted the chair and fabric I was using away to his shop. He delivered it back the very next day and the recovering was beautiful. He also added a backing under the seat cushion for free. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is professional, does high quality work, economical and quick! read more

Len reupholstered one couch (and new pillows) and made a slipcover for another. The cushions are off on the couch, after one year the back pillows still don't lay flat. And the slipcover has shrunk by three inches. I was very clear that I wanted a slipcover that was washable. I'm extremely disappointed with this work. read more

Wow! Beautiful work. So easy to work with. Fast. Nice guy. Very reasonably priced. I was late because I was trying to get the chair in/out of my small car. He said that he would have been happy to pick up. Every once in a while you are so pleasantly surprised. This is one of those times. read more

Len did great work putting new foam in the cushions of our room and board sofa. He was fast, friendly, and we loved the outcome. The one ding is that he doesn't take credit cards. I mean come on, it's 2013! read more

Don't waste your time. I've called twice, left messages, I haven't heard a peep. It seems to be located in a residential area on the west side of Beacon Hill. Again, I'm not wasting anymore of my time. read more

Was super happy with a chair that Len reupholstered for me. Good selection of fabrics and picked up and dropped off! Will use again for future projects. read more

Len shored up my favorite couch in one day with two (firm) pieces of foam and it is better than when I originally had it reupholstered. I couldn't be more pleased. Len is super reliable,affordable and easy to work with. read more

Len recovered a 60+ year old couch for us. His workmanship is superior and he is very reasonably priced. I was upfront with him that timing was not a big issue for us, so we worked together to find a mutually acceptable time line, that worked out fine. He is also a pleasure to work with. I will bring all of my upholstery work to him. read more

We took some boat cushions to have them recovered and Len did a great job. It took two months to get them back but he told us that up front, he is really busy and the reason why is he charges 1/3-1/2 what other Seattle upholstery shapes quoted us. Big fan of Len! read more

I had a boxy retro chair that was in need of renovation. An acquaintance recommended Len, and I couldn't be happier! The chair has been given new life, and Len was courteous, timely, affordable and did great work! I can't say enough good things. read more

After researching several upholstery businesses in Seattle, I almost gave up due to the extremely high cost, until I found Len's Upholstery. Len went over and beyond to make sure that I had the correct color of fabric. It was a little bit of a wait but worth it!! I had a sofa reupholstered for half the cost of other places in Seattle and didn't get charged for pick up and delivery. Len was very honest and kept me update on the progress. The quality of work was very profession and it looks amazing. I highly recommend him for your furniture. read more

When I was gathering estimates, I found that Len's quote was as much as $1,200 less than his competitors. He also delivers at no extra cost. (that would've been another $150 with his competitors.) He also didn't charge me for bringing in my own fabric (that would've cost me an additional $250 with his competitors-- upholsterers charge a fee for that, typically, because they mark up their fabrics when you buy from them directly, so bringing in your own fabric cuts into their profit.) To top it all that off, the couch looks beautiful! I'd go to him again, any time. read more

Len reupholstered my car, including carpeting, and replaced the convertible top. He held my vehicle hostage for nearly four months with excuses after excuses. On a progress check, l ran my hand over the puffy stitched seams. Apparently, without saying anything; he got the hint, because when I finally retrieved my car; he had restitched them tightly. l wouldn't have accepted otherwise. The black fabric top looks good, but now my trunk fills with water; which wasn't the case with the old top. There's about a foot of convertible top fabric hanging in the trunk which he seemed confused about, and I'm thinking: he should know; he installed it. He told me months ago to bring it back in the Spring, but l think not. At additional expense: l will go elsewhere to get a proper top installation. REMEMBER: The pain of a poorly done job lives on long after the joy of a cheap price dies. read more

Len did a lovely job on our unusual chair that we found in an antique shop. We were difficult about the fabric that we wanted, but he worked patiently with us, and as soon as the fabric came in, he had the chair reupholstered quickly. He was professional and courteous. Thanks, Len! read more
