My husband and I just got married in February. Previously he had his own place, and I had mine. So once we got married, we moved in together ad had to decide what we'd keep and what we wouldn't. We decided to keep his antique camelback sofa. However, it was in need of a major reupholstery job because his cat had done a major number on it. The fabric was torn in various places and the stuffing was peeking through.
We weren't sure who to trust the job with so we browsed the Internet until we found very favorable reviews for Eastern Parkway Reupholstery on CitySearch. We first dealt with Andrea, who is the daughter in this Colombian family-owned shop. She gave us all the pricing info and even sent us photos of similar work they had done to make sure it met our requirements. They estimated the job would take 6-8 weeks and it actually took about 7, so they were right on target. When they delivered the item, we were so pleased with the work. It was jut beautifully done, very solid work. They even cleaned up and polished the wood, and also tightened the frame and reglued the joints so that it wasn't wobbly like before.
Prices are very reasonable by NY standards. We paid $1100 or so which included two bolster pillows (price did not include the fabric, which we bought separately). We love our ""new"" couch and would recommend this place to anyone.
Pros: Price, Customer Service, Quality of Work
Cons: Location
