I have a cafe table with two chairs in my kitchen. The chairs originally came with loose, sort of flat cushions that didn't go with the my kitchen decor. I always thought of making cushions myself to match the window treatment I had made. However I never got around to it and finally called Dominic's. I was worried that the project wouldn't be big enough, but Jon came right out and listened to my request and got the idea immediately of what I wanted. I wanted the cushions to be plump and attached to the chair seat so they looked like chairs you see in soda shops. I had extra fabric from my window treatment so didn't have that expense as well as I received a senior discount, but the labor and supplies came out more than what I was expecting. However it was worth it to me because I know it would have taken me forever to do the job and it wouldn't have looked as professional as it does. He also added a bit of piping around the cushion where it meets the chair seat. Plus it only took about a week to get them back. They look perfect in my kitchen and are just what I wanted. I would definitely use Dominic's again.

The men showed up promptly at the scheduled time with sample books. I provided the fabric for the overstuffed chair and ottoman, and chose fabrics for the other pieces in a relatively short time. They took my chair and fabric and promised delivery in two weeks. The fabric I picked took two weeks to come in and when they delivered the overstuffed chair, they took the other pieces. They were delivered two weeks later and included throw pillows and arm covers We are very pleased with their work and communications. I can certainly recommend their work.
Description of Work: Dominics recovered an overstuffed chair and ottoman, a sofa, two wing chairs and ottomans, and 6 dining room chairs.

I didn't work out. They were too expensive. They came out and gave me a quote. The big deal was just to get a quote I think. It was outrageous. They were very nice. They came to my house and I didn't have to take the furniture to them. They were very nice. They had a large selection of materials to choose from. The bad thing was the cost. It was just sky high. They were very responsive.
Description of Work: I purchased a big deal for Dominics.

Response from Dominic's Design
[Member Name Removed] Dominic's is VERY competitive with other professional upholstery companies. Free estimates (quotes) are a part of the service we provide. There is no benefit to us by selling The Big Deal just to give quotes, nor any benefit to the consumer. Many of the people that have bought The Big Deal are happy with our prices, service and professionalism, which reflect in Angie's List rating. We do realize that not all people who buy The Big Deal will be able to use and those who could not use have had money refunded. If your money was not refunded please contact Angie's List.

It went beautifully. They handled the entire process in a very professional manner. They arrived on time for the initial appointment. They were very helpful in helping me choose the fabric from their samples. They ordered the fabric, called me when it came in, and came and picked up the chairs and cushions. A couple of weeks later they returned everything finished. The work they did was exceptional. I am very particular about the work being done as I have done upholstery myself. Needless to say, their work was excellent and I am very pleased with their work. I would highly recommend them and if needed, I will certainly use them again.
Description of Work: They reupholstered all my furniture in my sunroom. They reupholstered two chairs and ten cushions in Sunbrella fabric. The cushions were for the Rattan sofa and two chairs.

They came to our house with two large fabric sample books; looked at our current cushions; recommended new foam to go with the new fabric (cushions are over 45 years old). After we narrowed down the colors they made some suggestions - but without any pressure. They ordered the fabric and after it arrived at their shop they picked up the glider, 1 chair, and the footstool. They returned everything about a week later - it looks very good - they even made a couple of pillows for the glider. The cushions were delivered wrapped in plastic for protection.
Description of Work: Reupholster outdoor cushions for 2 chairs, a footstool, and a glider.

The communication was not good. I think it took four months altogether to get the work scheduled and completed. They were very nice and the finished product was beautiful.

They are a wonderful father and son team, so nice and professional. They showed up when they said they would, they brought back color samples for me to choose from. Gave me an estimate on other furniture I will have redone by them in the future and got my chair back looking great ! They were just a pleasure to work with !!!

The chairs will not be finished for several weeks but I appreciated Jon's professionalism and the sample fabrics that he brought out.
Description of Work: I have two chairs that need recovered. Jon responded promptly to the voucher service purchased and set up an appointment. I have hired Dominics to recover my chairs. They are ordering the material and will pick up the chairs when the material is in stock (approx 3 weeks from date of purchase) and deliver the chairs when finished.

Dominics came out to give me a quote on my sectional that I wanted recovered . They showed me several fabric samples and provided input on which choice would be best. The pricing was right and I couldn't be happier. They were extremely nice and professional. I would recommend Dominics to anyone and would use them again.

[Member Name Removed], Unfortunately Dominics doesn't repair PLASTIC me are mainly a upholstery company. Next time you buy a big deal make sure they can repair plastic. As far getting a refund you need to contact Angies List we have no control over getting your refund.

Initial contact was through email to get a quote. They showed up promptly at the scheduled time and together we went over each leg and I indicated which legs needed repair. They had the chairs about a week and when they returned them, they looked great! I asked for and received the senior discount. They were courteous, professional and I would highly recommend them for all your upholstery needs.
Description of Work: I have several upholstered parson's chairs that needed repairs to the legs, which had been damaged by cat claws. The fabric is plaid and each leg repaired needed to line up with the rest of the chair.

It DID NOT GO AT ALL. The cost was more than a new Lazyboy Love Seat. The gentlemen said I would be able to get a refund of the $99.00.
Description of Work: They were VERY nice and prompt but I had no idea that to have the Love Seat Couch would cost that much OU. So we were not able to make the deal. I am requesting a refund of the $99.00 to spent to purchase the "BIG DEAL".

This customer thought the price to recover a love seat recliner would be around 500.00. We told her over the phone that it would cost at least 900.00 with fabric. She still had us come out that evening and wasted our time, knowing what the price would be , however she tried to convince us to perform the work and fabric for 500.00

I have 6 chairs and I would have to pay the difference. I thought this was too much for this repair and choose to look into other options. The Vendor was nice, just more than I can afford. As I told him, I could buy a new set at some of our wonderful Consignment stores for what it would cost for his repair.
Description of Work: When I called the Vender, I found out that the chairs I needed re-glued from them being damaged during my move into this home, would cost $85. per chair.

I was surprised that they quoted the job just from pictures I sent. The quote was much higher than what I expected. They were pleasant enough, but I got the feeling they're very busy and weren't too concerned about losing my business.
