Nikki gave me a quick estimate for the job using my own fabric. The chair didn't originally have a skirt, but I requested that one be added and I am so thrilled with the results. Al is a professional who does exacting work. I had the chair delivered back to my house within 3 weeks. Pick up and delivery are included in the price. I highly recommend working with Pacific Design Upholstery. Al's work is impeccable and he knows his craft after 35 years in business. Price was absolutely fair for the craftsmanship. Look no further than Pacific Design Upholstery!

Yes, he specializes in Monterey furniture and it's often hard to distinguish from authentic pieces from the 1930s.

Highly recommend Ramon for anyone who loves Monterey furniture... he's simply the best.

At first I thought it's a bit steep for just trimming a couple of pieces of wood, but when his son noticed that the wood is warped, the poor guy spend half an hour sanding it to perfection without asking for a dime more than the original $10 quote.

I had a really large wood art piece that I shipped from Chicago to CA via UPS. The piece was…read moredamaged (broke in half) during shipping. I contacted a number of wood workers about the piece but John was the only guy I actually trusted to do the work. I have high expectations when it comes to workmanship and quality. John seemed to actually give an interest in the damages and discuss possible repair options. Great communication! The piece has been in the family for many years and I wanted it repaired good as new. I couldn't have been happier with the work he did. It took less than a week to finish and it looked absolutely fabulous. I look forward to the opportunity to be able to use John again in the future for any wood work I need done.

Going into the store is like walking into a candy shop. You want everything. We own a Spanish Revival house so we have specific design needs when it comes to tiles. I think your experience can greatly vary depending on who assists you. We had someone assisting us that seemed to not want to deal with us at all. Several of the existing tiles on the floor were apparently no longer being made (so why still have them on the floor?), the store stopped doing custom tiles with specific colors (which sadly were the exact colors we were looking for). We finally ordered custom tiles, which cost a lot of money and took some time to deliver. We ended up not liking how they looked so we put them elsewhere on the property. The overall experience was so poor that even though Mission Tile West is *THE* place to go for stunning tiles for your special project, but try to pair up with recommended service people from other reviews here.

I found out at 4:22pm that the tile my designer friend gifted me for my bathroom renovation project…read morewas going to run short. I needed 3-5 tiles within 2 days or my bathroom floor would be missing tile by the toilet... and I immediately jumped on Yelp and called ALL of the tile options. Alexis answered my call minutes before 5pm and got back to me with an option, and it might even be available for a local pick-up from the vendor! This was a custom Spanish tile that cost over $100 for a box, and there was 1 box that she procured for me within minutes of the vendors opening hour! I picked it up that afternoon for my installer to have the next day. It was absolutely magical and the most amazing experience I have ever had with anything on this project. Anyone that has lived through a renovation knows that things go wrong all the time, but this experience and Alexis' professionalism, accountability, and abilities are bar none the best! I recommend Mission Tile West and will always recommend them. They literally saved us from a major bathroom renovation nightmare.

Jon is an amazing man with a vast knowledge of rugs and killims. When my boyfriend and I came to…read morehim (by recommendation) we were skeptical. We'd been to a lot of rug salesman and as you can guess, they are usually dishonest, artificial con men. Jon Erin is the exact OPPOSITE. He was patient; folding all the rugs over that we needed to see and laying them out for us (dozens of rugs! They are heavy!) Anyway, my boyfriend and I were trying to find at least three nice rugs for our new home, under a couple thousand. Jon gave us an amazing deal for three small rugs and two large ones. Over the course of a few weeks, we finally decided on what we wanted. Like I said, he was patient with us. Mind you, buying fine antique rugs is not a wishy-washy thing!! If you are serious about buying the right rug or killim, this is the man to see. Oh, and he wrote his own book on rugs! He's amazingly knowledgable, kind, honest, adept and thoughtful. You won't regret going to him.
