"I tried everything to get an ink stain out of my sofa and didn't have success. These folks came in and made it disappear! Highly recommended. Would use again (but hope I don't have to!)."
"Young was very patient with me as I have very high expectations but I was frustrated from the remediation company damaging my furniture. He explained since it was older furniture it would not be perfect but much better than what It was. He delivered on that promise and I didn’t make it easy for him. He was very kind and the result was quite good"
"I’m extremely pleased with the work done on my garage. The painting was completed beautifully, with great attention to detail and a very professional finish. Jesus was punctual, courteous, knowledgeable, and took great care throughout the entire job. Everything was handled efficiently, and the quality of the work exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this technician to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and high-quality service. Excellent job from start to finish!"
"We decided to remodel our outdated bathroom, and McCormick Home Builders was a fantastic choice. Khaled and the team delivered high-quality work within the timeline and our budget. Every detail, from the tile work to the lighting, was beautifully done. They communicated well throughout, keeping us informed at every step, and the end result was truly a spa-like bathroom we can enjoy daily. We’d love to work with them again!"
"The crew was on time and cordial. The drywall was adequate. The painting was well done, especially cut-ins/transition from ceiling color to wall color, which we can never get right doing it ourselves. If we had any criticism it would be that clean-up was a bit lacking. To be fair, we did have a walk through at the end but there are things you donâ  t see in that moment. There was some paint residue on the wood door frame and door hinges that we didnâ  t see at the time. Clean up was a bit weak. All in all, we would hire them again. I give them an A-"
"I got my carpets cleaned by ChemFree. They did amazing work, very quick and efficient as well as professional, I will definitely be contacting again in the future."
"Professional and efficient cleaning of my corduroy sofa including pillows. The job was completed quickly and neatly, and my sofa dried within a few hours. It smells wonderful and looks sparkling clean!"

"First the price was amazing for pet odor and stain treatment. My home smelled like eucalyptus after instead of wet dog. He was willing to do the extra thoughtful things that other companies wouldnâ t. He cleaned in all the tight areas that the prior company did not want to, he brought us shoe coverings so we can walk on the carpet right after, and did a walk around with us after."
Upholstery reduces waste sent to landfills, limits resource consumption, and supports sustainable living practices, provided fabrics meet standards.
The average cost to reupholster a piece of furniture is around $720, with most projects falling in the $380 to $1,150 range. The final price can vary significantly based on several factors. These include the size and complexity of the furniture, the cost of the new fabric (which typically ranges from $50 to $70 per yard), and hourly labor rates (often $40 to $100 per hour). Additional factors that influence the price are the piece's current condition, its age, whether it needs other repairs, the number of pieces being reupholstered, and your geographic location.
When hiring an upholsterer, look for a pro with experience in your chair type, positive reviews, and a portfolio of completed projects. Ask about their process, timeline, warranty, and whether they are insured. Getting multiple quotes from reupholsterers in your area and checking their references can help ensure quality and fair pricing.
Paying to reupholster a piece of furniture means you want to hire the right upholstery service, especially for a piece that’s expensive or carries a lot of sentimental value. In your search for the right upholstery company, be sure to:
Ask around to see if friends or family know of any upholsterers
Find reviews of the company or individual
Look at the photo gallery of their work to see if they work on furniture like yours and if you like their work
Check qualifications and references
Ask the upholstery service if they work on furniture like yours, what their schedule looks like, how they handle payments, and how long the job will take
Doing your own upholstery work is possible, but it’s typically a better idea to leave the work to professionals. Without experience and the proper tools, it’s difficult to get a professionally finished appearance for your furniture, and many DIYers end up spending money on tools and materials only to hire a professional when they can’t get the fabric to look right. If you have reupholstery experience, feel free to give it a shot. However, if you’re not confident in your skill level or you’re working with antiques, it’s worth the money to hire a pro.
