PHENOMENAL results!!!! PHENOMENAL customer service!!!! I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Custom Furniture Works. When my parents passed away, I took several pieces of furniture that have been in our family for a long time to them. They coordinated a pickup of the furniture with me that included stopping at my home and my parents' home. They made all the pieces look better than I ever remember them looking! If you have a piece of furniture that is special to you, put it in the good hands of this family-owned business. The owner and his son delivered all my furniture back to me and did an impeccable job getting everything into our house.
These three letters are my short version of this review: "OMG"! Now the long version: We are so thrilled to have this chair that has been in the family for a long time with the completely new upholstery and rebuilding of the frame and springs. We didn't have any "before" photos to share but if you had seen it, like me you would have called 1-800 JUNK to have it hauled off. We are so glad that we didn't do that. The frame of this chair is far stronger than the cheap garbage you buy in most of today's so-called "furniture" stores. Jeff & his staff of workers did an amazing job, transforming this chair into something we are proud to have in our main family room, in full view of everyone. We are so happy with the job they performed; we sent him away with six antique dining room chairs to be reupholstered, using needlepointed seat covers my mother made for them about 40 years ago. People like jeff and the staff at Custom Furniture Works are very special and we want to do everything we can to get the word out. Who knows, we may even find more gems in the family to have reupholstered. 1/25/25 - Update.....added photos of our dining room chairs reworked with the affore mentioned needlepoint seat covers & updated & stronger seats. Lovely!
I cannot say enough about these people! Needed my favorite sofa I have ever owned repaired because one of my foster pups decided to tear it up a little. Did a google search and found this company. On a whim I thought I will try them and see. Extraordinary work and customer service. I felt immediate trust with them. So down-to-earth. I actually can’t wait til I need another piece repaired! Service like theirs just doesn’t exist anymore these days. What a gem they are! So happy I found this place! Thank you so much guys!
I contacted Jeff and company in 2022 to see if they could repair a chair that I rescued from a dumpster at Georgia Tech back in the early 90s. It had been sitting in my basement in pieces for almost 30 years. I had almost thrown it away multiple times, but finally looked it up on Google to see what it was. I was surprised to find out it was a well-known piece, by Norwegian designer Fredrik Kayser. Jeff was able to replace the torn leather, repair the damaged webbing in the seat with original material, and clean up the rosewood frame to bring back the shine. I opted to not have the wood refinished so it would retain the “aged” look of a chair that was well loved and used. The team was great to work with. They picked up the chair at my house, and delivered it when the work was done. During the process they kept me informed on how the work was going. I highly recommend Custom Furniture Works and will definitely use them in the future.
They did a fantastic job bringing an old family New Home Sewing Machine back to life. It had a big water stain on top, broken pieces, a torn belt, old paint with most parts of the machine in a box. Now it looks almost brand new. Thank you! Before and after pictures below.
