I can’t praise AD Specialty Sewing enough for the work they did on my old chair and ottoman. I knew that the fabric I chose was going to be a challenge because of all the matching it required, but they created an absolute work of art! The pattern carries through from cushion to chair to ottoman on all sides— it is just beautiful! Both my husband and I love how it turned out. I highly recommend AD Specialty Sewing!!

Very well, we wanted to get an old loveseat redesigned so we could get it down stair way to basement. Owner said cost would be prohibitive and offered alternative of a loveseat they had for sale with our item as a trade in. Quality of new piece was well above what we traded in. We were also able to find chairs for dinning table. Items were delivered later the same day. A family owned business
that knew their trade and practiced customer satisfaction.

If you're looking for a pristine, storefront to shop for your fabrics, then this is not your place. But if you're looking for quality work and friendly service at a fair price then you should definitely see what they have to offer. My experience was excellent - I was able to take fabrics home with me to see them in my kitchen and they even got the cushions done in a week - just in time for a party I was having. Would definitely use them again for future jobs.

A very pleasant experience. The quality of the repair was excellent, beyond my expectation. The cost was fair and I would highly recommend this business.

THe job was completed the next day and for less than the estimate. They did a great job. I will go back the next time I have an upholstery project. He showed me the way the existing cushions were and explained what they would do to make them better.
