We could not be happier with the work Al and his team did to restore all the furniture we brought to him. Originally, we were only looking to restuff the cushions of our couch and love seat with firmer material (which are now extremely comfortable) but ended up also having him completely redo 6 kitchen chairs with new padding, new leather upholstery that matched the old perfectly, and rivets. The chairs look and feel amazing! Additionally, Al restored the leather on a 20 year old recliner and it looks like new. It was a pleasure to work with Al. He is extremely responsive and helpful, and the workmanship is top quality. We extended the life of every piece we brought him by years! The turnaround time was quick and I thought his prices were very fair. Would recommend him highly to anyone. read more

Al and his team are amazing. They restored my sofa to a better quality than when I originally bought it. It felt great to support a local craftsperson and keep all of this material out of the landfill. read more

Ace Covering Upholstery - Beautiful, smooth, tight reupholster on my favorite sofa. - Furniture Reupholstery Near Me - Northbrook, Illinois

Can't say enough positive things about Al and his company. Al was super patient in helping me find the fabric I had in mind. Al pulled many options from his shop shelves and let me take them home but none were exactly what I was looking for. So Al understood what I was looking for and called a couple of the sales reps he gets samples from and found me the perfect fabric. His team picked up the couch for a small fee and brought it back. He promised I would get the couch back in 6 weeks (it's a big couch) in time for a graduation party, barring any unforeseen circumstances, and he came through. Not the cheapest, altho the fabric I picked is a piece of that, but excellent quality so worth the price in my opinion. read more

AI did an amazing job fixing three buttons on a leather tufted sofa as well as touching up worn down areas of the leather with paint to give this couch a new look. His prices were very competitive and I was able to get the sofa done within one week. Highly recommend working with Al and his team! read more

I don't pretend to be an expert at high-end upholstery & finish work, I am "handy" & have lot more tools than I should. When I spoke to and later, went over to their shop in Northbrook I found them friendly, busy, and at the same time very helpful. Al helped us with some couch cushion work. It was well below what they normally do in terms of complexity. He was still very kind and helpful, in spite of having several large projects in motion. I would use them for them for any Work, antique or new! read more

I had been unhappy with my dining room chairs because the seat stuffing had deteriorated to the point of discomfort. I was thinking about just giving them up and buying new ones. Thankfully. first I looked in Yelp for suggestions and Al's business struck me as a good choice. I am so happy that I made that choice. He is a delight to deal with in every way. He picked up the chairs as promised on time, did a perfect job on the new stuffing in the seats and the chairs look good as new and are once again comfortable. And all this in a very timely manner. I highly recommend Ace Covering Upholstery! Thanks Yelp and Al read more

Our old couch looks better than a new one. The job is exceptionally done. Thanks, Al! I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone.

We recently had ACE Covering reupholster two couches and a chair. Alex guided us through the process with his usual responsiveness. They did an amazing job - as they always do. Each piece looks like new. The workmanship is extraordinary and their reasonable turnaround time was very appreciative. I wouldn't go anywhere else for reupholstering. read more

Ace Covering is fantastic! We loved our large old leather club chair that had seen much better days and couldn't find anything we liked nearly as much to buy as a replacement. I was skeptical about having it refinished but Ace did an amazing job. Al was wonderful in consulting us on what leather to choose, etc. He is a top notch craftsman and provided excellent customer service. We also have a large sectional that fit perfectly in our room - but was quite tired having lost a lot of its shape. Al stuffed all of the pillows and the couch looks new again and back to its original stature. read more

Al and his company are amazing. They were recommended to me by another upholsterer who said Ace Covering was the only upholsterer in the area that they would trust. Al goes above and beyond and his work is fabulous. Al helped me with a couple pieces of furniture to find the exact fabric which would be perfect for each piece, taking the time necessary to explore everything that was available. Not only did they do an amazing job with my furniture (one was an oversized recliner), but when he found out I needed somebody to stain my dining room chairs he took care of that for me also, finding somebody and helping me determine the perfect stain color. Al's style and taste reflect in his work. Al will take care of any job, from soup to nuts. They pick up and deliver the furniture also, all done in a very timely basis. You won't be disappointed. I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more
