We had 6 wooden dining room chairs which were my grandmother's (so at least 60 years old, as she died at 90ish); wooden backs, seats worn through and what appeared to be kapok stuffing falling out here and there. Not particularly good quality chairs I don't think, but of sentimental value to me. We also had another, nonmatching wooden chair which I wanted reupholstered in a matching fabric. All had dings and scratches and occasional loose joints, and we had put sticky felt on the bottoms of the legs to avoid scratching our dining room floor. I telephoned to ask if he could do the job, phone was answered promptly and pleasantly by Mr. Hayden himself, appt made for us to bring chairs to him the following day (a Saturday in early June 2013). I did not have upholstery cloth picked out, he said fine to get it elsewhere (he could tell us how much needed after seeing chairs) or he had some we could look at. Address he wanted chairs brought to was different from that listed as Havenhouse Upholstery on Google (it appears on Google as Havenhouse all one word); appeared to be his home when we got there. He had a furniture-filled workshop in his back garage which is where we dropped off the chairs; he had about a dozen different rolls of upholstery cloth of different patterns/fabrics in the back of his minivan and we chose one we liked from that selection (I am perfectly happy with what we chose, but do not consider myself a picky shopper in matters of style -- durability and stain resistance more important as we have kids, and he recommended some of what he brought as more durable than other fabrics, we chose from those). Estimate was $575 for reseating/upholstery/stain guarding and $200 for repairs to chairs (he said refinishing was not recommended for chairs like these, and that was not our focus anyway), paid by check $250 deposit. He said it would take several weeks. Late June I called to check and let him know we would be unreachable for a week, he said he was almost done. As arranged he called me after we returned to arrange pickup, appt made for next day. He stated repairs had been more extensive than estimated and would be an extra $75 (I made no quibbles). Place to pick up was another different address. I had to call to confirm address twice (trouble entering into GPS) but each time Mr. Hayden answered right away himself and was immediately helpful. and quot;Haven House Upholsteryand quot; or similar not seen on signage of building at that address when I arrived so I phoned; he drove to where I was (took 1 minute) and led me back to a storage unit containing a workspace and lots of furniture including our chairs. He helped me load up and I paid remainder by check to him personally, receiving receipt with both Haven House Upholstery and his name at the top which lays out work done nicely but does not include tax line (I have to assume sales tax was included in the price). Quality of the work: seats look great, very comfortable to sit on with good firm/soft balance for both me (short and fat) and husband (tall and thin), fabric fits tightly and is beautifully folded over corners and evenly trimmed underneath, a lot better than the original seats even before they wore through. The fabric we chose had a herringbone pattern which would show minor faults in alignment easily and this was perfectly aligned on each chair. Wood had greatly diminished ding/scratch appearance, still present (as expected) but have to look a lot harder to find them. Joints very stable now, no leaked glue visible (if he used glue; I didn't ask how he made repairs). Unasked, he had replaced the sticky felt pads under each chairleg with the same color and thickness we had used. Overall, I am very pleased with the work quality. Timing and what would and could not be done was all accurately explained in words I could understand. Cost was a bit more than original estimate but I believe the chairs deserved this as he hadn't tested the joints a lot before making his estimate, and this is not a visible problem. I had expected more of a storefront experience given the name and quot;Havenhouse Upholsteryand quot; but reaching and dealing with Mr. Hayden was easy at all times. My only concern is the lack of evidence of having paid sales tax on the receipt, which I did not notice until I got home. I would use him again if needed; he seems to be a real craftsman who cares about quality and that is well worth putting up with a slightly less-than-slick business demeanor.

Never used because talking to them on the phone was impossible.
He was really helpful on the phone. Very knowledgable and recommended some things to us. I appreciated how responsive he was to us, even though he was to far away to perform the work.

FAQs for phone repair projects in Oswegatchie, NY
The average cost to repair a cellphone is around $180, but prices range from $20 to $250 or more, depending on the type of repair. Some of the less expensive common repairs include charging port or headphone port repair, which averages around $60, and minor water damage, which can total as low as $30 in some cases. Screen repair—the most common cellphone repair needed—averages around $180 and can fall between $100 and $350, depending on the extent of the damage.
It is possible to fix a broken phone screen yourself using a phone repair kit, but we don’t recommend it. Replacing your screen isn’t as simple as taking the old one off and putting the new one on, and DIYers can mess up many steps. Those include opening the phone without damaging internal components, removing internal pieces without breaking them, and calibrating the screen after replacement. Any mistakes could lead to problems with functionality and might lead to your phone failing to work. It’s best to hire a phone repair technician who can fix your phone screen efficiently.
A cellphone repair technician is the person that typically repairs phones, and there are specialties within that position, like a cellphone screen repair technician. In most cases, you can send your phone to your manufacturer for repair, but this option usually takes significantly longer and costs more than hiring a local cellphone repair specialist. If you choose a reputable repair technician, the repair will be more or less identical to what the manufacturer would provide.
Yes, it’s usually more cost-effective to repair a cellphone than replace it entirely. Phone repair services can be costly, depending on the extent and type of damage, but you’ll almost always spend less on repair than on replacement. Plus, replacing the phone might not help if the problem lies with your service provider, such as issues like dropped calls or poor network connection. However, it’s worth repairing your phone for mid-level issues like a cracked screen, damaged headphone jack, or smashed charger port.
In most cases, it is more affordable to repair a cellphone than it is to buy a new one. The average cost to repair a phone is around $180, while the average smartphone costs between $720and$1,000 or more. Repair costs are almost never more than 50% of the total phone cost, with the high end of repairs costing around $350. If you hire a professional phone repair service near you, you’ll usually save significant funds repairing instead of replacing your cellphone.
