History
Established in 2016.
River City Upholstery LLC is a furniture repair service specializing in leather/vinyl restoration, headliner restoration, and headlight restoration and wood refinishing repair. It launched in 2016 in Chester, VA, and provides service in Richmond and the Tri-Cities.
River City Upholstery LLC grew from my passion for furniture and upholstery in combination with my desire to improve our community. Unfortunately, the benefits of reupholstering antique hardwood frames built to last (as opposed to buying newer, cheaper styles of furniture) are not well-known. Therefore, part of my mission is advocacy, which helps improve the lives and homes of all my neighbors: men, women, young or old, from all walks of life.
Meet the Business Owner: David P.
Hi, I'm David, Upholstery is a longstanding family tradition and personal dream of mine. My family owned an upholstery business in El Salvador for 20 years before the breakout of the Civil War forced us to relocate in 1980. Together, we endured a treacherous trip across Mexico into to the United States under refugee status. There, I was raised in Long Island, NY until I was 12, before we moved to Virginia.
At 20, I joined the United States Marine Corps and proudly served my country for eight years. I had the opportunity to travel around the world and got to know many diverse cultures. Today, I am a proud father of two boys and a business owner.
The key to my happiness comes from serving others in my community. Starting a business cannot simply be about money; its foundation is strongest when it is based on purpose and meaning. My goal is to launch an apprenticeship-based upholstery program aimed at high school students with ADD/ADHD, and adults in rehabilitation transition.
