My husband found this business by looking at the positive reviews. Eric and his family did not disappoint. We had a couch and love seat reupholstered. We had shopped around for a new couch but couldn't find anything we really liked. So, we decided to have our 30 year old couch and love seat reupholstered. They did an excellent job. We picked out a plaid pattern and they matched up the "stripes" perfectly. GREAT job Eric. Thank you. read more

Excellent work and great customer service! Our puppy unfortunately destroyed one of our cushions, and we needed someone who could repair it properly. From the beginning, Erick was extremely helpful, professional, and easy to work with. He took the time to understand what we needed, and the finished work came out great. You honestly can't even tell there was damage! The quality of the work was excellent, the service was professional, and everything was done right. We really appreciate the attention to detail and the care that went into the repair. Thank you, Erick, for bringing our cushion back to life! We highly recommend MJ's Custom Upholstery & Design to anyone looking for quality upholstery work. read more

We brought in our set of four 1950s Heywood Wakefield "dog bone" chairs that were in serious need of new cushions, along with vintage fabric (Hawaiian barkcloth) we had recently found. Erick and his crew did a wonderful job - they had the fabric backed to make it more durable, which turned out great, and did some really nice detail work including new bottom-boards for the cushions so that they fit perfectly against the backs of the chairs. And, they even made a little pillow for us with the extra fabric! Most important though, the chairs look absolutely beautiful now, and my husband and I are very happy with them. I highly recommend this place; it's obvious that they care a ton about the quality of the work they do. read more

Eric did an amazing job on our extra-large sofa. He was always on time, communicated well, and kept us updated throughout the process. The couch looks fantastic and is finally comfortable again--it doesn't sink in anymore! His wife and boys were so nice too. You can tell they're a hardworking family that takes pride in their work. We had a great experience and would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing furniture repair. Thanks! read more

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. read more

I reached out to Erick's business regarding replacing some worn out fabric on my sofa. He was very responsive and professional and was able to come out within the week to repair my sofa. It looks great now and the day I plan to reupholster it I will definitely work with him again. I highly recommend this business! read more

You won't find a better place! The highest of quality work, quick turnaround time, and family owned/operated. Erick and his wife are incredible kind, hardworking people.

I needed a piece of form for a chair and found MJ's on yelp. Eric suggested a firmer foam and had it cut to size along with a piece of batting as well. He refused payment and told me I was good to go! He was very kind and I promised to recommend his services to anyone interested. Thank you Eric! read more

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! read more

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 read more

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. :-) read more

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! read more

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.

Our dogs tore up a corner of a very expensive crocodile leather print and one of a kind chair. Eric took pieces we had from the small pillow it came with (also chewed up). He did his magic and made it look like new. He took his time to get it right and even was kind enough to deliver it back to our home. read more

Erick did wonderful leather work on six dining room chairs. He picked up and delivered the chairs within one week. Very skillful. Great work at a reasonable price. He and his wife Yvette were very helpful in guiding us through the process and their suggestions were spot on. We will use MJ again! Thank you both! read more

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! read more

I wanted my leather La-Z-Boy recliner restuffed and a rip in the footrest repaired by re-covering it. I contacted MJ's Upholstery. I sent them photos and they quoted me a price over the phone, with a few options that I could decide on when he came to pick up the chair. I arranged for a pickup/delivery for a nominal fee. Eric (owner) came and picked up the chair. A short time later, maybe two weeks?, I got the chair back. They did a great job!! It is like brand new. I am working on breaking in the new cushions on my like new old chair. I am very pleased! read more

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. read more

I took an old Queen Ann chair that belonged to my Mother. I really didn't know what to do with it because it didn't match with what I had in my house. Well, I trusted them with the chair and when I got it back, it was absolutely perfection! I'm so happy with the work. read more

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! read more

Not quite sure why I see some of the negative reviews on here but Erick & Yvette are so fantastic! They always make sure to quote you before they do the job to make sure you're comfortable and they walk you through the whole process. After getting my couch reupholstered by them I had them build me a custom "ear holder" for all my Disney ears. While it was something they had never done before they took on the challenge and it has blown my expectations!! When you work with this family business you get great quality and great customer service. Going forward if I have anything that needs to be done they are my go to people! read more

I wanted to update chairs I had done now about 2 1/2 years ago. And their still in new condition. Oh and trust from little ones climbing, spills (accidents happen), big people, little people & anyone in-between these chairs are doing wonderful.

Amazing work. I had a bed for years that I needed to reupholster. Didn't know where to go or who to call and then a friend of mine referred me to MJ's Upholstery. When they took my bed I wasn't expecting I would get back q brand new bed ! I thought I would be getting something ok, but when I saw it, it was like I had just about the a new bed !! I am very happy with the results and the work on it is excellent, excited my expectations. Before you buy a new bed or need any furniture to be re-done, this is the right place to go.

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

I cannot stress how AH-MAZING this business is. Erick came to my house 3x during the process. First time, to give me an estimate and lug waaaaaaaay to many swatches to help me find the perfect fabric. Second time was to pick up my sofa and last time was to drop it off. Along the way, Erick provided me with top notch customer service. He texted or called to ask me questions before proceeding and one time he even FaceTime'd me. He also sent me photos along the way so I could see his progress! And the final result? I could not be any happier!!! My new sofa is soooooooo gorgeous. Everyone I've sent photos too cannot stop raving about it. For the price and the result, you can't ask for a better company! read more

I ordered a significant number of patio furniture cushions with a specific deadline, and they bettered the delivery date.
