have no doubt this attention to detail made the difference in assuring my move went smoothly and on schedule. Alan's moving crew is friendly and professional. They bring EVERYTHING needed to get the job done right: wardrobe boxes to make it fast and easy to move the contents of the closet, bubble wrap to protect delicate glass, moving blankets to pad as needed and protect those perfect hardwood floors, shrink wrap that keeps drawers from coming open and upholstered furniture and mattresses spic and span. Oh, and did I mention they are gracious. Like when the world's tiniest elevator went out and they had to carry what is quite possibly the world's heaviest and most awkward desk down the stairs. No problem. No moaning, no groaning, just a cheerful, "let's get it done" attitude! Or when I discovered that the new office wasn't built out to my *exact* specifications and the server rack wouldn't roll into the server room. No biggie for these guys: they made sure equipment was secured and used their team to carefully and safely ease the rack into the room at an angle. While I'm hoping never to again move, if I did, I have no doubt I'd call Alan Vickers Moving again! They are truly the best.

As I had purchased the matching chair, I didn't want to return it. The floor model wasn't a good option either as it had been sitting in the dusty showroom for a couple of years. We decided to live with the sofa as it was. After we'd had the sofa a month, I noticed that the sleeper mechanism bar was resting on our hardwood floor and notified HFH of the problem. It took nearly TWO MONTHS before a replacement sleeper had arrived and they were ready to repair. When the upholstery repair company took the sofa, they dropped it on my front porch. When it was returned, they had not done the work promised and the sleeper was still resting on the floor. I called HFH and asked them for a full refund on the sofa (which was given) and indicated that I wanted them to pick it up-not the upholsterer as they'd already done enough damage to our home. They sent the upholsterer to pick it up anyway. Essentially, we're stuck with the matching chair ($1000) that doesn't match anything and are looking for a new sofa. And the quality of the product isn't as good as we had thought-it isn't holding up well to daily use."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/houston/high-fashion-home-reviews-1999408.htm"},"position":4},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"TWO GIRLS and A BROOM","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TX","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Jayne O."},"reviewBody":"I had an appointment with them at 8am.

Upholstering questions, answered by experts
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.
It is usually worth repairing leather furniture, as it tends to retain its value, provided you care for the material. A typical repair for leather furniture will cost about $250, which is significantly more affordable than replacing the furniture entirely. Even if you spend toward the upper end of the typical cost range for a full reupholstering—around $4,000—you’ll still save money over replacing it. Of course, the quality of the leather and the piece of furniture matters. Consult a leather repair professional about whether it’s worth repairing your leather furniture.
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.
Doing your own upholstery work is possible, but it’s typically a better idea to leave the work to professionals. Without experience and the proper tools, it’s difficult to get a professionally finished appearance for your furniture, and many DIYers end up spending money on tools and materials only to hire a professional when they can’t get the fabric to look right. If you have reupholstery experience, feel free to give it a shot. However, if you’re not confident in your skill level or you’re working with antiques, it’s worth the money to hire a pro.
Craftsmanship begins with detailed design followed by skilled artisans shaping high-quality materials into the desired furniture, ensuring durability and uniqueness.
