We've used other upholsterers for projects off and on over the years- recovering this or that, and ABZ comes out head and shoulders above the other three+ places in the Triangle we have used.
We brought in a project, an antique hassock that a friend had gifted us with a storied past: it was purchased by her late father-in-law when he was stationed in post-war Morocco. The bottom of the hassock (calfskin?) was worn, and the ancient cotton batting was falling out.
ABZ to the rescue. They stitched on a full-coverage patch that should last another 70 years, and blended in the stitching to make sure that the original craftsmanship wasn't obscured in the slightest. From drop off to pickup was less than a week, and their call to let us know that it was complete was a complete and pleasant surprise.
Pricing? Horribly reasonable for custom work.
It looks like they do both furniture and a lot of boat upholstery, too. If you have a project in the Triangle, I'd call them first. I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more
