    Dining room chairs!
    Kyle P.

    This business does amazing work! The cost was reasonable and they turned around my 8 dining chairs in a short period of time. I'm impressed! The designer helped me pick out a second fabric and they are beautiful!

    They did an absolutely beautiful job reupholstering my chair that is ~50 years old. They replaced the seat cushion completely, and redid all the self-fabric buttons as well. You would never know it isn't brand new! The staff spent a lot of time with me discussing fabrics and colors--very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them.

    Great communication. Reasonable price. Beautiful work. A pleasure! They made it so easy by answering questions on Yelp messages and getting me a quote and timeframe.

    Amazing reupholstery work on a mid-centry that's been in the family for years. The team at Century was helpful, professional, communicative, and did expert work! I couldn't be happier with the outcome!

    Had a pair of mid-century bar stools recovered and revived. Great experience start to finish. They look fantastic. Had a set of danish modern teak dining chairs done a few years ago. Terrific results. We keep coming back for the quality work, friendly staff and craftsmanship. Highly recommend. Lyda and Ron will take great care of your project. Recommended. Jc

    Before ottoman

    Once again, Century Upholstery provided me with a very happy "after" photo of my poor old chair/ottoman that had been chewed by a Great Dane. It had also been relegated to the storage room, so my chair is just beaming!

    I recently had a very positive experience with the upholstery of my dining room chairs. Century was recommended to me by family and friends, so I didn't need to shop around for competitive services after I decided to 'upcycle' a 60 year old dining set instead of purchasing a new one. I sent them pictures of my project and made an appointment to get fabric recommendations. Soon after, I was put in the queue with their existing orders. All in all, it took about a month from order to completion, and it was well worth the wait. I appreciate working with a smaller, locally owned business and would recommend them for quality work at a fair price.

    Century is the best upholstery shop I've ever found. The employees are friendly and knowledgeable and the owner is involved in the daily business. The craftspeople do an outstanding job. These days, it's rare to find consistently high quality workmanship in this industry. I was so happy with the sof they reupholstered that I've had them do several more since then. I originally had the sofa rebuilt from pieces, but this time, it's SO much more sturdy and comfortable! I had no idea how worn the cushions on the recliners were until we got them back. They were "suddenly" ergonomic again and everyone's posture complaints disappeared. Even Grumpa, who's always had HIS OWN chair, likes to sit in them. You can count on them taking a really good look and giving you an estimate for exactly what you asked for. You'll also discover that you might not want what you asked for because there are so many other amazing options. They won't talk you into that, but they'll definitely help you find what you want.

    So glad I came across this shop! They were friendly, responsive and helpful and the price was very reasonable! I thought I was doomed after my dogs tore up my new couch but thanks to Century Upholstery it's back to new! Highly recommended!

    Reupholstered sofa by Century Upholstery

    We had a wonderful experience with Century Upholstery from start to finish. Our (not so old) saggy sectional from West Elm really looked quite sad. We thought about buying new and then started looking into reupholstering and found this company. As you can see, they have rave reviews, and we can see why. They made the process easy, from working with an interior designer who helped us find a beautifully rich fabric, to the sofa pickup, time in the shop, and return to us, with a sofa that looked brand new and of so much higher quality than what we started with! They were also ahead of their estimated time frame (amazing!) and when the owner, Ron H., provided some added recommendations on types of fill and which cushions needed what, do you know that our price estimate somehow came down!! We could not be more impressed with this company, their staff, and their absolute superior workmanship. They are professional, knowledgeable, responsive and timely. If you are thinking about buying new and/or unhappy with your existing furniture piece, you should definitely consider reupholstering with Century Reupholstery, we are so glad we did! Highly, highly recommend! Thank you Ron, Lyda and team! We could not be happier with our new, beautiful sofa! It looks fabulous in our home and everyone who comes over LOVES it!

    Century upholstery recovered the seats for my dining room table. The chairs now look brand new. I worked with Lyda and she helped pick out my fabric for the recovered seats. I think it's more helpful to bring the chair since they can get a better idea of how much fabric you need and you can actually see how a fabric looks and feels. The fabric I chose is a performance fabric and soft. They also completely changed out the padding on the seats. Overall, seats look like new chairs now, so happy I went with Century. Also they will pick-up your furniture and drop off completed items for a fee. Ron was very helpful and professional. I highly recommend this company for your upholstery needs. I also had my sofa seat cushions changed out on my sectionals and I have a new couch, no more sagging.

    I was working on the set for our spring musical. Fabric stores have become scarce in San Diego…read more But I remembered this amazing warehouse and it has been such a long time since I've been here. I could literally spend a good three hours in here just looking around at everything! There's a great variety of fabrics and designs. There is also foam that you can have cut to size. Also, a number of pillows and cushions to choose from. They also have a reupholster office! The young man who helped me was great! Cut the fabric like butter and rolled it up on a tube. After he cut some foam for me, he tied them up so it was easy for me to carry. Oh, and make sure you look at the fabric that is on sale. Lots of good buys back there! The only think that was challenging was being able to pay through my school, which might have been also an issue with my district. Other than that, the staff is really friendly and I look forward to coming back!

    I used to shop here a lot 20 years ago. Last month I needed some basic black automotive carpet,…read morepretty simple. Bought a couple of yards. Today I unroll it to do my project and the rubber backing is dried and rotted, when you cut it all the pile falls out. Even where you dont cut it just rub it and the pile falls out leaving a bare spot. Now these guys handle this stuff all day, theres no way when he cut this off the roll he didnt see this was defective because it leaves a helluva mess. I brought it straight home and didnt store it outside or in a hot car. (Its automotive carpet anyway!) I dont think I will be back soon if theyre trying to unload old defective product, this is not cool.
