"Vincent was incredibly responsive, patient, professional and just lovely to work with. He responded immediately to my request for service and was willing to do the job the very next day. I had to wait an additional day due to MY schedule. He was punctual, as neat as one could expect, explained the entire process, including the order in which the jobs would be completed, how long the carpets/rug would take to dry and then some! His price was very reasonable. I will definitely hire him again. The next day, I realized I should have had him clean some upholstered furniture pieces while he was here, but I will call him another time for that service."
"Justin is a great source for refinishing wood! He took my old worn out weathered teak outdoor table and brought it back to life! Don’t throw out your old wood furniture! Call a professional like Justin and it will be new again!"
"Thomas was incredible. My couch looks BRAND NEW and smells brand new too. No chemical smell-just new. He was so professional and took the time to explain everything. He is someone I would hire again and again for other services needed."

"Handy Hubby Steve repaired cement stairs and installed a new outside back door. He did an awesome job. Steve was always on time and made sure everything was done properly. His prices were very reasonable. Great personality. Very personable. I will definitely use him in the future for any other repairs I need done."
Yes, many custom builders offer finishing and upholstery options tailored to your style.
To safeguard your furniture and upholstered items, it's best to use plastic wrap or specially-made plastic sofa covers. However, you should avoid wrapping wooden furniture in plastic if you plan on storing it, as plastic can trap moisture and warp the wood, plus it may damage certain finishes. In either case, old blankets or moving blankets make excellent alternatives. For protecting delicate glass table tops and mirrors, bubble wrap is always a reliable choice.
Part of the beauty of academia decor is that most textures and materials will feel right at home, provided they’re dark. Some common textures include natural wood, dark metals like iron, velvet, and leather. Incorporating these into your dark academia decor will make them look right at home. Glass is another option in some cases, so fill in gaps in your decor with small glass jars, or really lean on the gothic roots of dark academia with stained glass.
As with any project, weighing the pros and cons of upholstery can help determine if that is the right choice for you. The ultimate question is whether it’s worth reupholstering instead of buying new furniture. Here are a few of the benefits and disadvantages of reupholstering a piece of furniture.
Pros:
Preserving a family heirloom
Maintaining high-quality furniture in good condition
Reinventing an old piece of furniture
Keeping a piece of furniture from going to a landfill
Cons:
Spending (possibly) more than to buy a new piece of furniture
Finding out the frame is beyond repair
Waiting for the reupholstery work to be done
The best way to test the quality of a leather couch is to put your hands on it. If the upholstery is soft and warm, that’s a good indication that the quality is higher. It should also smell like traditional leather. If it smells like chemicals, you’re probably dealing with low-grade leather.
