    Found them on yelp! Customer service was % they responded quickly, they listened to the details of what I was looking for in my furniture make over! And let me say they went above and beyond I was not aware of what was underneath the material of the furniture I brought them. They decided to keep the quality top notch not just what the material they provide but redesigning the pieces themselves. I was very surprised that they also made furniture pieces! I have provided photos of before and after they should speak for themselves! I'm beyond words content with the work they have delivered. I will continue to use them for any future furniture flips I do. I recommend them to anyone looking for an upholstery person! This family business has earned a new loyal customer. Thank you again guys I love my custom pieces! my guests complement the pieces and I let them know who did the work!

    We had an antique rocker reupholstered and it's gorgeous! They even covered my stepstool to match and made me a pillow. Erick & Yvette are very knowledgeable, very friendly, and do excellent work. I can't recommend highly enough. Support small family business and take your furniture to MJ's.

    New bottom

    Service was excellent asked for 6 dining chairs to be reupholstered on bottom only and Yvette came over to look at project, to help choose fabric, and to price. She was very pleasant and within a week I had new chairs. They were very meticulous in making the new bottoms. Thank you for making my new chairs.

    We are very happy to find a great upholsterer in the Whittier area. This family business proved to be an excellent one. Not only are they courteous and friendly, they are experts with great design and repair suggestions. They are skilled in this business. We had two sturdy foot stools in need of recovering. We also wanted casters added to make them easier to move. Erick listened to us and then offered his input. That was helpful. He completed the work in a timely fashion, and returned the foot stools to us - delivered to our home. We are pleased with the work and enjoyed working with him. The casters work so well and are recessed from view - Erick's suggestion. We chose leather. The upholstery looks fantastic. He also relined the interior. He put new foam on the tops to improve them. Not only do we get many more years out of the solid frames of the original foot stools, they now roll easily and look new.

    I recently took 6 dinning seats to be upholstered to MJ's. First, the friendly courteous greeting from Erick, the owner was a huge plus. I told him what I wanted & needed & he explained to me options I had regarding materials/fabrics. He showed me options for the cushioning & had me sit on sample chairs to in order to decide what I liked. I like that he does not pressure you into anything & just explains the differences on the options I choose. His price was very fair & the turn around time he gave me was more than reasonable. He actually had them ready a couple of days sooner than expected, which was very appreciated. His work was outstanding. My mom, (RIP) was a seamstress in the furniture business & I recognized the quality of his work. I am 100% happy & satisfied with his workmanship & service. I highly recommend MJ's, a family owned business. I am going to have them reupholster a reclining chair I have also. Great work, great people

    Erick did it again! This time he revived my mom's old sofa. I grew up with this couch and though I never really liked it that much, it's at least 70 years old and when the time came, I didn't have the heart to get rid of it. Now, she's GORGEOUS and I have it in my office so I can enjoy it all day long. :-)

    Emblem

    My family just received our favorite rocking chair that has been in the family for years from this company. We are so happy with the result as they did exactly what we wanted and it came out beautifully! We wanted stripes and they line up perfectly. Thank you MJs!

    Newly redone ottoman. Cat approved, too :-)

    Great service. Excellent quality and craftsmanship. I took my well used, twenty year old ottoman to MJ Custom Upholstery for a redo. I wasn't really sure what I wanted but they showed me many different samples/examples/fabric swatches and discussed what they could do and gave me some great ideas. I finally settled for this one (picture below) which I absolutely love. I'm sure I'll get another twenty years from this one. I already plan on returning with my dining room chairs to have them reupholstered as well. Highly recommend!

    If you're looking for upholstery work look no further this is the place! Eric and his family are so warm, kind, helpful, and reliable. In today's world you don't find this very often. From our first interaction we knew we were in the right spot. They have a large selection of fabrics to choose from and Eric was very helpful at explaining the different types and what would be best for our families everyday wear and tear. They picked up our sectional and delivered it when completed taking the stress away from us. We will definitely coming back! Please support this business and kind family. If I could give more stars I would!!!!!!!!!

    Wonderful experience from start to finish. We inherited a beloved vintage mid century sofa that was well worn. They gave us recommendations on how to preserve the piece for generations to come. Erick takes pride in his craft and it shows in all the details. Their customer service was excellent, keeping us up to date with the progress, and they even disposed of the old heavy couch for us. Highly recommend!

    Reupholstered den recliners

    I had two leather recliners reupholstered by Erick at MJ's. They are beautiful and we are very happy with them! We used imported Italian leather so it took a few weeks for the leather to get here and Erick had some serious health issues so it took longer than expected but that said, it was well worth the wait. The wait is the only reason for the 4 out of 5 stars. I would recommend them to anyone who wants quality craftsmanship. His wife and son were very helpful and nice too!

    Merry Christmas Present. Erick and his son just delivered this chair that was my parents for 20 years and I had it for 15 before I started to research redoing it in leather. Erick and his wife came over a couple months back. We discuss this thoroughly. (I was already convince MJ's was the company to do this after reading the heartfelt reviews.). Erick talked to me about leather quality and completely redoing the internal guts of the chair, including the refinishing of the wood. I knew this chair had a hardwood frame and would be worth doing it Right! Erick with his skill, his background and his wisdom guided me through the process. Today is the beginning of a new era for this chair. It is an heirloom piece. I am so delighted. Thank you Erick. Thrilled with the beauty, the workmanship and the comfort.

    We needed to fill our couch cushions. They are very friendly, fast, professional, and very happy with the results. Will use again for sure.

    Mario's Furniture Refinishing

    We recently renovated our home and we were considering purchasing new bedroom furniture. However,…read moreafter going to several furniture stores we were not happy with the quality of the furniture we were seeing. We really did like the our old bedroom pieces but they needed to be refinished. We decided to get some quotes in the area. I contacted Mario's Furniture Refinishing and spoke to David. He answered our questions, listened to our concerns and gave us a quote soon after sending him some pics. After getting a few quotes, we decided to go with David. He was confident about his work and guaranteed us we'd be happy. When we shared our concerns about selecting a stain he was able to ease our stress and anxiety by recommending options. Even as he encountered a setback with our furniture pieces, his level of skill and experience made the difference in making them look beautiful. From pick up to delivery we appreciated that he was in constant communication. All in all, David did a FANTASTIC job!!! We loved how our furniture pieces turned out. He did an amazing job and we couldn't be happier. David delivered like he said! There is no question the level of skill and experience David brings to job. For anyone looking to refinish your old furniture pieces you love, we'd highly recommend you contact David from Mario's Furniture Refinishing.

    David refinished what started as a very red Mahogany Console table to a beautiful Medium Walnut…read morestained Console. The stain matched perfectly to my dining set (he refinished). He's a master in his craft because my table is Red Oak, my chairs are maple and the console is Mahogany. Yet all three species of wood look like walnut. I suggest you keep your real wood furniture and spend the money on quality refinishing instead of low quality MDF, veneer furniture you will buy nowadays. Thanks David!
