Spot on with the estimate on fabric yardage. Both of the chairs and the sets of cushions were a more complicated job. Large bold scale pattern matching for the cushions and double welting and 2 different fabrics for the chairs. Flawless execution. Dellinger's did an awesome job. I'd highly recommend them.

I sent 2 chairs to be reupholstered to Dellinger's based on a recommendation from a friend. They were picked up from my mother's home along with the fabric. The chairs were not upholstered exactly (2 fabrics were used) as agreed (in writing in a text message). When the chairs were brought back I expressed my concern, but thought I could get used to them, and the quality of work was great. About 24 hours later I called Frank and asked they be redone as per the original request. He assured me that he wanted all of his clients happy and would gladly fix them if I would please wait until after the busy Thanksgiving holiday. No problem. After Thanksgiving, there were several unanswered calls and texts. I called and spoke with his father, Larry who again assured me this would be fixed if I could wait until after the busy Christmas season. No problem. It is January 5th and again, no response to calls. Friendly as can be to get your business, but want nothing to do with you after you've paid. And QUITE expensive at that.
Response from Dellinger's Upholstery
"These chairs were picked up with no fabric at the time of pickup, and a couple of months later I met Mrs. [Member Name Removed] at a local mart in the Davidson area and picked the two contrasting fabrics up from her at that location, and wrote on a work order how the fabrics were to be applied to the chairs as per her instructions, which I also confirmed via text about 2 weeks later when we were starting on them! Upon completion of the chairs and ottoman I sent Mrs. [Member Name Removed] a text picture of the completed work so she could see the finished product, as she was leaving to go out of town on business, we agreed to deliver the following week upon her return. She did send and text and advised she thought the pattern may be a bit busy on the arms and stated she "thought" we had discussed doing the solid on the arms also, I advised her that I went by the work order that we had written at the local mart during pick up of the fabric, which I might add she purchased and approved!! I along with my dad Larry Dellinger who is the owner of the business, and has over 60 years of experience, have both spoken with Mrs. [Member Name Removed] on several occasions and have expressed our willingness to make every possible attempt to make the chairs to her liking, but there would be a cost in this process, because we would have to pick up and redo the chairs and re deliver them which did not seem to be a problem. We have spoken with her as early as last week and up until now there seemed to be no problem, as we both agreed due to the holiday rush on my end and the non urgency on hers that after the first of the year would be fine, she stated she had a new home warming party coming in the month of January we agreed to get them before then. As far at the price I think the 350 per club chair is VERY fair when it comes to market value and quality of work we provide!! As far as unanswered texts and calls they have all been answered and responded to as I still have all of our correspondence saved in my cell phone, so as far as the no communication goes it seems there is miscommunication on the home dwellers side. Again we would have been glad to re do the chairs to Mrs. [Member Name Removed]'s liking but that is not always possible as this situation shows. Also the work was not delivered until November 14th at 12:30pm because the new construction was not complete, this was at the customers request work had been complete for several weeks."

They are very good. A little pricey but they do excellent work. They did an awesome job. The chair had a quilt type thing and it was very intricate. They just took a long time to do it.  I just recommended them to someone else.

I call Mr. Dellinger and ask how much fabric I will need to buy to cover my chair, sofa etc. He gives me the total amount and when the fabric comes in, he comes to our home and picks up the furniture and the fabric. The furniture is usually finished in about 2 weeks. He then delivers it and places it in our home. He has always been prompt and the furniture is beautiful.

Picked up cushions and delivered them back in 10 days. Pick up and delivery included in price. They look fantastic. Better then they looked when new!

Mr. Dellinger set a pickup time, and was punctual. He also re-upholstered the sofa in a timely fashion, although I was not in any particular hurry. I requested new cushions and 5 large pillows to be made for the sofa back, along with arm covers (sleeves). This was all done beautifully and exactly as I had requested. This is an antique sofa, going back at least to my great-grandparents and was missing a decorative piece from the center front. Mr. Dellinger returned the piece with a replacement piece that was almost identical to the two that were already there ~ for free. First-rate work indeed.

Dellinger's is great! They picked up the chair when they said they were going to. They returned it when they said they were going to. Their work was excellent, and they even found a crack in the frame of the chair which they mended at no additional charge. Overall, very easy to work with.

THOUGH HE IS LOCATED JUST OUTSIDE CHARLOTTE, HE DOES MAKE TRIPS HERE ON TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS. HE WAS VERY COURTEOUS AND PROFESSIONAL BOTH ON THE PHONE AND AT DELIVERY. HIS WIFE ALSO WORKS WITH HIM AND WAS EQUALLY AS PLEASANT TO DEAL WITH.
