I haven't had any custom work done by Poway Auto Upholstery but I've had multiple customer supplied seat cover kits installed by them. The turnaround time is usually a few days and the quality of the installation is good. The cost for each cover varied from $200 - $250ish depending on what type of car seat it was. read more

within 1 year and a half my drivers side car seat that they completely reupholstered ripped at the seams. He was wanting me to repay him because he claimed the fault was because the seat was "dirty". seriously? (and it wasn't dirty!) Raul was rude, insulting and argumentative when I said I shouldn't have to pay him to fix. beware before using this company...if things go wrong they are a big problem read more

Was told they could repair my 6" seat tear and would look perfect and no one could tell. Not so. They used different color and no one called me first to ok it. The padding in the seat is now different and seat tilts to the left. Not a good job at all. Go to Mings Upholstery down the road instead.3/2026. read more

Took my car to get an estimate a few weeks ago to install a new carpet kit and seat covers. Nice guy and definitely knows his trade. However, the price was incredibly high. He was charging me $650 per seat cover (which I provided) and then $900 for the carpet kit (which I provided) installation. I declined to have him do it due to the high cost. I then took it to a place in national city which did an amazing job installing the seat covers and carpet kit for $950. read more

I had previously taken in a 2005 Lotus Elise to have the hardtop roof relined with leather and Raul did a great job. Such a good job that I decided to bring in my other car, a 2010 Tesla Roadster to have the roof lining redone on that car. I had previously had the interior redone with diamond stitching and asked Raul to match the stitching and leather type and color. He did an amazing job and the price was great! I highly recommend Poway Auto Upholstery for anything you need done. read more

They did an amazing job designing (I just showed him pictures of our boat and Raul created), sewing, and installing new upholstery for our boat.  And they have amazing customer service - everyone went above and beyond.  I think the best service in the industry!  As for the upholstery...I will let the pictures speak for the the great quality of work they provide. So impressed!!!! AND they finished in RECORD TIME!!! PS - the gold and dark colors are the before read more

Great local family business! The new headliner they put in gave new life to our old car. And they stand behind their work: I noticed shortly after I got the car back that the map lights didn't work, so I brought it in. They spent over an hour checking that everything was hooked up right, and in the end, turns out it was not their problem, just a blown fuse (and he didn't charge me or blame me for wasting his time!) I wish I had known about this place when our previous car had torn leather seats -- I will definitely be coming back next time I have an auto upholstery need, and recommending to friends! read more

I went to Poway Auto Upholstery for help to do a little custom job on my Harley Davidson leather seat and Raul was so cool and helpful. He helped me on the spot and did a terrific job.

The staff is very friendly but seem to lack the expertise to do the job properly. I took my car in and wanted the OEM headliner. Well, what I got looked like the basic headliner as it was more rough than smooth from the sample they showed me. When they put it in and said my car was ready, the fabric wasn't even adhering to the liner. I had to take my car back to have it redone. I still ended up with the basic headliner and not the one I paid for. The headliner wasn't the only problem. I noticed that they had broken the sun visor clips that are used to lock the sun visors in place on both the driver and passenger side and tried to cover it up by screwing them in rather than getting new ones. I had to order them myself and brought them back to have them replaced. They were nice enough to do it for me and reimburse me for the cost of the clips. I was ok with this and had forgiven them for lying to me and not telling me they broke anything. I had asked if there was anything else damaged that I needed to know about and they said no, just those. However, when I was cleaning my car a couple weeks ago I had noticed that the cover near the back of the passenger seat was broken. This must've happened when they removed the seat to take the headliner out of the car. It is noticeably glued back together. They failed to tell me that they broke this as well. If they can't be honest with you when they break something and try to cover it up, then a business just isn't worth going to. Even though the headliner looks ok, I will probably get it redone in the future at another shop with the OEM material I requested and with a shop that can be honest when they break something in your car. Offering to fix it and reimburse for the part is a nice offer, but really, it is something they should tell the customer about when it happens and not try to cover it up. Now I have to replace another part on my car that is hard to find. I only gave 2 stars because Raul was really helpful and tried to help fix everything that was messed up by his staff. read more

I totally agree with the review about the one done on the boat. Originally we went to Poway Auto Upholstery with the assumption that with 4.8 stars of reviews, this place would provide "professionalism" and business ethics. We took 2 table tops to have reupholstered for our physical therapy clinics. The owner kept talking about guaranteed customer service satisfaction. So the first pickup, there were problems at the top and bottom of the face hole, among other things. We talked to him for quite a bit. He said that he would fix the issues and that he guarantees customer satisfaction. He 'promised' that if we're not satisfied, we can take the tables back with the condition that he removes the materials he supplied. We agreed. Who would've thought on the 2nd visit to pick up the 2 table tops, things turned uglier than before. Instead of replacing the fabric with a new one, he left nothing but a clear view of shoddy workmanship. Holes from previous staples could be seen all over. He stapled everything literally on the edge of the fabric where one tear would become a domino effect to disaster. What happened next was a nightmare! We tried to communicate with the owner about taking the table tops back; and he could remove the materials. The owner became very aggressive and raising his voice stating "What? You think you can come here and expect my work to be free!" He was contradicting everything he previously promised and stated. The owner wanted us to pay the full price for something that will rip soon due to the inferior workmanship he provided. He stated we have to pay $100 dollars per striped table in order to take them back. This took place within a 2 week period where we wasted so much time going back and forth from Escondido to Poway. I went back to the work place where I had someone speak Spanish to him; because most of the time I had a hard time communicating with him. We tried to resolve the matter by paying $100 dollars per table top to return our tables. The owner made it impossible to communicate. One minute he wants cash; which we don't use as payments for our business, then he stated we could pay by credit card. We offered him a check and he refused. He then stated he would only accept cash. By the way, we told him from the start that we have over 25 table tops which need to be reupholstered. I am so frustrated regarding this matter as to what business would do such unprofessional work! It was just the beginning with these 2 table tops, and he is willing to blow the rest of the business income he could have made. I would definitely think twice before taking anything to this company. Very unprofessional and lousy business ethics! read more

Poway Auto Upholstery did a great job fixing the headliner on my Volvo C70 hard top convertible. After reading many posts on Volvo forums about my fallen inside ceiling panel and a few failed self-repairs, I gave the shop a call because it was close to my work. I drove my car over that day so they could take a quick look and was asked to come back the next day. I dropped the car off on Friday morning and was able to pick it up before 3pm that same day. I probably would have been able to get it sooner had I called to check on progress. I'm happy with the solution they provided. I was nervous that they would just glue it back up the same way it was in the first place and that it would fall shortly after. Instead they came up with some sort of clip system that's holding strong one and a half summer months later. It cost me $150. For quick, practical service in the Poway area I would definitely recommend. read more

Overall, very happy with the project just completed by Raul at Poway Auto Upholstery. First, the project - replace seat covers for my front bucket (2) and rear bench seat for my BMW M3. I shopped the job around and felt buying factory direct parts was overly expensive and time consuming and arrived at Raul who's solution was custom leather. He helped me select replacement leather and even offered a design upgrade that resulted in a snazzy silver stripe down each seat, helping to accentuate the lines of the car. He even helped with the worn center console, replacing the leather on that. The price he quoted was lower than I expected, less than half the cost to procure and install factor certified seat covers from another shop. The install of the seats was super convenient, he completed all work on time and my car was only there for basically a day. The seats look brand new, although the center console doesn't fit exactly perfectly as it used to. Overall, excellent experience and a major project that I'm very pleased with. read more

Late last year I needed the upholstery replaced on the inside doors of my wife's 2008 VW Beetle due to the adhesive failing. Went to two other well known shops in San Diego and both didn't want to be bothered because it was too hard or they said it would just happen again due to heat. Went to Poway Auto Upholstery and dealt with the owner. He came up with a solution to make the upholstery stay up more securely around the pull handle by stitching across the handle and allowing the material to form better and flex. He did a great job, and charged a very reasonable price. About a week later the cable assembly to the gas cap came loose inside the door due to the door panel removal during the work. The owner came out and immediately took care of the issue, providing outstanding customer service. Highly recommend this place! read more

This place is fantastic! I emailed the business asking if they would re-do seats for my classic Ford. I told them I had an upholstery kit and they said no problem. Raul was super easy to deal with. The price was very fair and the turnaround was fast. So fast I had to ask them to hold on to the seats a couple more days because I went out of town. Didn't think they'd be ready so quick! I'll definitely be coming back with my classic Chevy. read more

Raul is super friendly and very welcoming. I was trying to contact the next shop over and had stumbled upon Poway Auto Upholstery by accident.
