Great place to do business. Very professional and knowledgeable. I am starting a new project with this company.

Prompt and courteous service is what I expect and Off The Bolt hit the ball out of the park. They reupholstered our sofa and sleeper and both look great! Wait time to order the fabric and time to perform the labor was faster than we were quoted. Pick up and delivery was also spot on, extreme care was give to our furniture when it was picked up and delivered. Being this was the first time we had any furniture reupholstered I wasn't sure if we made the right decision, but decided to move forward after we went furniture shopping. Having our old furniture returned to us better than new was way more than we expected and we are thrilled with the decision we made and the company we chose. Everyone we dealt with was courteous and professional. We are now planning to redo our dinnng room chairs and will be using Off the Bolt from now on. Thanks for a great experience! read more

I'm so very happy with my experience using Off the Bolt. I had an extremely small piece of 1960s velvet upholstery fabric and wanted to see if I could make some pillows. Zoe was an absolute pleasure to work with and helped me pick out the perfect backing fabric to maximize the fabric that I have. I was hoping to get at least two from the piece but they worked their magic and was able to make three from it. Having this be a sentimental fabric, it was nice to know that it was in such capable hands and I got the very best possible outcome. Everyone I interacted with in the store was exceptionally lovely and helpful. Very much looking forward to returning for even more projects! read more

Off the Bolt is the company to choose when you want that new look for your old couch. My couches were made 30 years ago. I could not replace them. The bones of the couches were well made and were still in great shape. My kids could not believe that they were looking at the same couches they grew up with. The craftsmanship was impeccable. Off the Bolt comes and picks up your furniture and deliveries it back to you when the job is done. They offer great service and care in every way. Off the Bolt has also made from scratch my Host and Hostess chairs for my dining room. I have 100% confidence that they will meet your expectations. Off the Bolt's warehouse is filled with a variety of fabrics to chose from. The staff is on to help you find the fabric you are looking for. Thank you Off the Bolt for all your hard work and care. You are helping me redecorate my home with ease and pleasure. read more

Love this store! In the heart of the west valley industrial center is this gem of an upholstery shop. I needed a few down pillow inserts for my accent pillows. The ladies were very helpful, got the right measurements and the order was filled in just a few days. They even stuffed them for me upon pick up which was a nice touch. I found the price to be less than on line stores too. They also have a non down version which feels like down if down is not your thing. read more

I have never writen a Yelp review before, but I wanted to write this because of a wonderful experience. Off the bolt did an Amazing Job reupholstering my chairs. They came out so Beautiful and the price was fantastic. The entire crew was wonderful. read more

Fantastic service and excellent quality. The whole crew Mike, Sarah, Sylvia, and Zoe were absolutely a delight to work with! My expensive two-piece sectional was recovered by Off The Bolt. It's better than new! Their prices are fair and their service was excellent! I have a feeling who's ever giving the bad reviews are not very nice competitors of Off The Bolt! I live in Manhattan Beach and they send their very nice crew to pick the furniture. I have recommended them to other friends who live in my neighborhood. They too, we're very pleased with the workmanship! It's so easy to do business with them. All I did was email the picture of my sectional and they called me back promptly with the very fair price. read more

Excellent Customer Service!!! Staff is professional and courteous. They will treat you well. Highly recommend.

Unbelievable situation with this company. I learned last week - when my sofa was in their possession to be recovered - that they were closing this business for good at Christmas. I asked if my sofa would be done prior to closing and was assured it would be returned to me on Monday. Monday came and went, no sofa. I called and was told it would be to me Wed or Thursday. On Wed at 4:30 I contacted the store and was hurried off the phone with the promise that my sofa would be delivered after 5p this very night. By 10pm I gave up and went to bed. No sofa every arrived. Eight phone calls the next morning went unanswered. I drove to the location and it was boarded up. Still no sofa. So they have taken my money and my sofa. the sofa in question is not something I can just go purchase again. The money they have is close to $2,000. I've spoken to my credit card company to put that in dispute. all well and good...but I'm out an amazing sofa that works in a room no other sofa has been able to. Merry Christmas to me, right? I try to believe that people for the most part are honest and good. But there has to be something going on when a mom and pop has been in business all these years with good reviews and then basically steals from a customer. I don't even care if they never started the project. Just bring me back the sofa and I'll go somewhere else. Int he meantime, I have reached out via an email address I had for them and hope someone sees it. I will make a police report on the stolen item although we all know that'll go no where and I have my team looking into who owns the building they were renting because I'm hoping my sofa is sitting inside just waiting for me to rescue it. I've also put a finder out on Michael and Sarah DiGiancomo - the owners. In other words, I want my sofa. read more

Great selection, extremely knowledgeable and attentive staff. Was very satisfied with my interactions with this company.

POOR Craftsmanship!!! I had my sofa, love seat, ottoman and dinning chairs reupholstered by them. The craftsmanship is SO bad I would give them a NEGATIVE 5-star if there is such rating. The installation people were lazy and unprofessional. After I complained, they sent the workroom supervisor to my house to evaluate the problem. He basically told me that everything looks the way it's supposed to be. After I argued, he only agreed to redo one piece and the craftsmanship was still horrible after the rework. I had my furniture reupholstered for the real estate I owned several times over the years. I NEVER once had such a bad experience as I had with The Bolt. I am writing this review is to tell people not to waste thousands of dollars like I did. Thank You! read more

They are a complete rip off and do not stand behind their product. 1. Product was built to wrong specs, they wouldn't fix it 2. They told us material would be at cost, we knew the cost and they quoted us more than double the price. 3. We needed certain protections of our furnature which they wouldn't give us. 4. We chose to have someone else finish the job and they are now holding our money. The refund for the unfinished material includes made up charges we never agreed to. Don't even waste your time at this place, and if your Decorator wants you to use them, get another one! Next, to Angies list. read more

Hmmm... what to say about this place. First of all, I was excited when this place opened... since I thought it would be another place to forage for fabrics... but in the valley...and close by...and not Joanns! Sadly, this place is not the place for me. It's perfect for upholstery or home decor fabrics... (as they have a pretty large selection of these) but not for just regular cotton prints. Although, you pay much more here (things were an average of $25-35 a yard) than you would downtown... but then again, you don't have to face the traffic and just overall deal with the whole "downtown scene" I was also told that they would have some Kokka fabrics from Japan... but alas, they didn't. They did have some cute fabrics... but again, I can do nothing with them. Sad. On a side note: I do think they carry that sunbrella fabric...which is notoriously hard to find. read more

I found Off The Bolt from Angie's List, where it has very high ratings. It was very convent ly located near my office. I didn't even look at Yelp until after having a delightful visit to Off The Bolt. I work in numerous design and buying capacities and work with top architectural designers in the Office Real Estate realm. I read numerous design publications and feel I have some experience in field. Here's what I experienced: 1) Met with Sylvia who listened to what I was looking for and directed me to several appropriate design books for two chairs that very badly needed re-upholstering. My cats destroyed one antique chair, and the other had very sexy, yet faded, mid-century fabric and needed new pillows inserts. I selected five books, including some beautiful Kravet fabric right out of Architectural Digest. I did not want AD prices for my reupholstery needs. Until I met Sylvia, I had never had any luck in fabric stores. No one could translate what I wanted like she did. 2) Sylvia helped me the next day with my order and explained the fabric I wanted had an 8-week lead time. No problem. She explained how much fabric I needed with drawings. The fabrics I looked at were between $40 and $87 a yard, and I went on the high end. A $200 difference on 9 yards of fabric is fairly meaningless when you reupholstering high-end furniture. I left a 50% deposit. They picked up my chairs exactly when they said they'd be at my house. The pricing was very reasonable. 3) I received a call about three weeks later the fabric was in (several weeks ahead of schedule); and two weeks later, right on schedule, the chairs were done. I talked to Zoe. She was very polite and helpful. I visited my chairs at the factory and was happy with the results and laid the difference. 4) The chairs were derived exactly in schedule. 5) The chairs look great. The antique chair was very complex and needed some rebuilding. The one with the new cushions is a tad firmer than the ~ 50 year-old cushions I used to have. I am getting used to them. May want to specify how firm I want them the next time I do this. 6) The photos on their website are not showing particularly wonderful fabric. I found they do have higher-end designer fabric. read more

I had looked at several fabric stores and upholstery stores and couldn't find what I wanted before my friend told me about off the bolt. they gave me a sample of material that was perfect. my main issue was I needed them done the same day. Christina checked with mike and he said they would do it for me. I dropped the seats off at 9:30 a.m. and they were done by 1:00 p.m. the same day, and they look great. I would definitely recommend off the bolt to everyone and go back myself again. karen r read more

I had an elderly roommate earlier this year who had a birthday coming up and I wanted do something special for her. She had been telling me about a small ottoman she had in storage that had been in her family for over 100 years that was in disrepair. I took the ottoman to Off the Bolt to have it re-padded and upholstered. I wish I would have taken before and after photos, because it turned out better than I could have hoped! The turnaround time was quick and the service was friendly and hassle-free. My roommate was so impressed and touched that she was in tears when I gave it to her. Thanks Off the Bolt for making a wonderful birthday gift so easy and affordable! read more

I have used their services several times for couch repair. Each contact has been kind and courteous. Jose has promptly come out free of charge to look at and or fix something that needed repair (after having it repaired once several months before hand). He is such a great guy. I would highly recommended their services. read more

I was on a quest to find just the right fabric to upholster our chaise longue. The finely built piece of furniture had served us well and the fabric was now completely worn out in places. I thought it could be a DIY project during the pandemic and started to remove the old fabric, only to realize that it would be impossible to try and upholster the chaise longue myself. After a long search for the right fabric and calling many fabric/upholstery stores, I decided to visit Off The Bolt on Bahama St. in Northridge. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted and assisted by a lovely lady named Marcia. I tried to describe to her what type of fabric, color, look and feel I ideally would like and she very skillfully presented about half a dozen choices. There was a deep blue velvety soft chenille that caught my eye and I knew I trusted THEM to re-upholster our chaise longue. From start to finish, the job was completed in 4-5 weeks. Two gentlemen delivered the completed chaise longue and it was beautifully crafted. The foam had been replaced, the chenille fabric was perfectly draped and neatly folded around each curve of the chaise longue. The design is tufted and every button is expertly stretched through the seat. OTB did an outstanding job and is from now on my go to place for anything home decorative/ fabric related. Fantastic service and highly skilled associates. Thank you!! read more

This review is very overdue...our interior designer used the services to reupholster a large sectional. They did a nice job On the fabrics portion but only replaced the foam insert on two of the three sections. For what they charged it should have been done correctly. My fault for just letting it go but now that I'm home every time I sit on the sofa and sink into the indentation I get annoyed. Bottom line, check everything before you pay final amount. Ugh. read more

They told me it would be 3 weeks and it took 2 months, during which time I called them and they couldn't find it or they'd tell me they would call me back and never did. When I finally got it back they had changed the pattern and placement of seams so it no longer matches what I have. I am so unhappy with them I will never go back. read more

I am so happy I found this business. I absolutely love the work they did on my sofa cushions. I had a custom sofa made at a business in LA and everything but the back cushions came out great. I should have made the business take them back and fix them but it was a big hassle so I lived with it for a couple of years and hated them. Someone at another custom furniture shop recommended me to Off the bolt and they did a fantastic job in redoing my cushions they way they should have been done in the first place. Thank you to the owner and staff. Great and friendly service. The next time I need something made this is my go to place. read more

Just recently picked up 2 chairs that had been reupholstered at Off The Bolt. They look AMAZING. Would highly recommend this service. Customer service is also excellent. Marcia, Zoe and owner Mike are a pleasure to work with. read more

First I want to say that they did a great job reupholstering my couch. However, their professionalism is greatly lacking. I went in, picked fabric, gave a deposit, and Christina told me it would take 2 weeks to get the fabric in and then they'd call to pick up the couch. 3 1/2 weeks later, I called to ask what was up. Sally said they are so busy, that they don't have time to call everyone everyday to give them a status update (which I thought was a really rude thing to say). I told her Christina said it would take 2 weeks and she said no, it normally takes 3. She never apologized or said she would talk to Christina. I had to ask her to. Then she said it was actually going to be another 5 1/2 weeks because there was a delay with the manufacturer! They called me after 5 1/2 weeks and said the fabric was in their store and wanted to pick up the couch, which they did. I was in the area 2 days later and went in to ask for a small fabric sample. The woman said the fabric was locked in the truck and she didn't have the key. That sounded strange, but OK. 12 days later I called to ask when the couch would be done, because they'd said a week or two. Zoe tells me the fabric is NOT at the store and so they haven't even started working on the couch! When I questioned her further, she said she'd have to check and call me back. She didn't. The following day, I called and asked for a manager. Marsha wouldn't give me the manager's name, but said she herself could help me. I asked her to find out what was really going on with my couch and she said the fabric only arrived 4 days prior (Friday) and the couch would now be ready the end of the week. They finally did the couch and delivered it the following week. It was an extremely frustrating experience and I won't do business with them again. read more

If you want a sofa done right, reupholster a chair or have custom pillows made this place is for you. Every time I've given them a job they've always return the item upholstered to perfection. Reliable and fair price. I hope I will never have to a upholster with anyone else. Great craftsmanship and integrity but here you will!!! read more

I called Riviera Upholstery and asked for a quote for my sofa to be redone and after long boring speil i was given some outrageous price so I googled other places and OFF the BOLT came up and since it is on Angie's List I called them and was given a reasonable price. So I went and picked out the material and contrasting welting. I was told it may take apprx 6 weeks from ordering of material and completion of sofa. It's been only 1 month and 1 day. It looks beautiful! So pleased. I recommend you go to them first. Now I'll have them make some matching pillows for me. read more

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! I highly recommend NOT using this place. since there were not many fabric store in my area I felt like I had not choice but to use them. Here was my experience on my large order that was placed. 1. They don't get back to you when they say they will and you have to continually call them to get answers, even when you have told them you are ready to order something. 2. I price shopped with other places and they were hands down the most expensive around, charging you extra for things and not willing to make any deals. Fabric was more money, Labor was more money, Delivery, Shipping you name it. 3. They have an attitude and are down rite rude when you ask them to do simple things like find out shipping information or sending you a receipt for phone orders, or getting you samples to take home. In my opinion it doesn't matter how good the quality is if the customer experience is this painful, disrespectful and awful its not worth it to shop there. I wonder if this is why there Oxnard store closed down, people caught on and got tried of this kind of treatment. A store doesn't survive without customers so it is important to bend over backwards and treat your customers with gratitude. read more

I'm going to start off by saying that I am relatively new to the yelp world and up until this point I had a lot of faith in the legitimacy behind it all, however after visiting this establishment and then seeing the reviews I am starting to have my doubts. The Off the Bolt that I visited was phenomenal in their approach to customer service and they also delivered a more than satisfactory finished product. I had my sectional couch reupholstered in a fabric that I found amongst the hundreds of beautiful and unique samples on the showroom floor, the fabric I chose was something I had not seen at any of the stores I visited (no need to mention names, this is about OTB). One of the lovely ladies working the floor knowledgeably guided me to this perfect fabric and spent quite a bit of time with me going through various different options. I never felt like she wanted to get me and out as quick as possible, or that she annoyed by slow methodical approach to ensuring I made the right choice. Unfortunately, I cannot remember her name to mention it, however i know it started with an "S" and she was an absolute delight to work with. Moving on, as I mentioned my couch was reupholstered and I couldn't possibly be anymore satisfied with how it came out. I was hesitant at first to embark on this process because I've had this couch for many years, but I can say with ease that it turned out better than I ever could have imagined. Mike (who is the owner) really took care of me and made sure that he covered every single detail before tearing away the old and creating the new. I knew I was in good hands, it was very noticeable that he has been in the industry for a long time and really knows what he is doing. Finally, I want to mention that even the delivery guys were extremely professional and gave off a very warm vibe. They were very meticulous in their approach to bringing my couch into the house, ensuring that they did not even come close to touching a wall, cabinet, or random object in their way. Sometimes delivery people can you make you feel uncomfortable or take a very careless approach, but not these guys. They deserved a big tip. Overall, I hope that people will not be fooled by the somewhat "fishy" yelp reviews for Off the Bolt, any person with common sense should immediately take note of a bunch of negative reviews splattered all over the front of their yelp page, but then countless positive reviews hidden in depths of some filter....seems strange to me. Off the bolt gets a 5 out of 5 from me and in my opinion will definitely exceed your expectations. Try them out! read more

As an interior designer for over twenty years, it is imperative to me to provide my clients with exceptional service and quality. A fellow designer recommended di Giacomo Upholstery and Off the Bolt fifteen years ago, and they've been my workroom (and hers!) ever since. Mike and Sarah in particular have given invaluable advice about the details of bedding and upholstery that make a project perfect - the size of a welting, the fill to use for a comforter, whether a fabric will stretch and should be backed before use, whether a fabric is too stiff for an application, how to lay out a pattern on a chair back or pillow - the list goes on and on. It's that experience and professionalism that sets them apart. I've seen them and their employees in action, helping customers to choose the proper fabric, suggesting ideas for coordinating fabrics, and seeing pieces through to completion. They carry fabrics in many price ranges, including Fabricut and Robert Allen, so you're not limited to the goods on hand. Every time I go in to go over a project in the workroom, I see the orders and sketches from clients and highly reputable designers whose work I admire pinned on the wall - along with some beautiful completed furniture. I highly recommend the store, and hope to continue using them for many more years. read more

I have used Off the Bolt for the last several years for major upholstery needs. They have done custom black out silk drapes throughout my entire house, and the most amazing roman shades and cornice for my kitchen. I find them extremely easy to work with, creative and very professional. They really appreciate a good creative challenge, and make it super easy to get a quote if you just send them an image of something. I will continue to use them for years to come, as they are my go to for home furnishings now. read more

So happy with what I bought. Sales people were beyond helpful and made sure I stuck to my budget.

This company is a real gem! I'm so glad I found them, they helped me pick out fabric for new slipcovers for my couches, they have very good design sense and the quality of the work was very good. I ended up getting two sets of slipcovers for my living room furniture. Now they are working on some draperies for me as well!! read more

I've had the pleasure of working with Off the Bolt for a number of years starting when they were at their previous location in Woodland Hills, CA. I have had an excellent experience, they are always helpful with suggestions, knowledgeable and are up to speed on the latest trends.

Incredible workmanship and service. Absolutely wonderful. I have had numerous pieces of furniture reupholstered at this establishment, cushions restored, chairs recovered with leather, and old chairs on wheels remade into fashionable statement chairs, formal dining room chairs. Every single piece has turned out gorgeous. This store moved to Northridge and I followed them. They are terrific. I have one more huge bedroom project - fabric covered bed and matching chair - to do and I would not even think of going anywhere else. read more

We were referred to Off the Bolt from a family friend. Off the Bolt was top notch! We had bought a vintage couch and chair at an Estate Sale not in the best condition and Off the Bolt completely turned both in to brand new couch and chair. They are absolutely beautiful. We had then re-done with the idea being placed in our new home next year. We wanted them redone for a Western Saloon Bar décor. I could not find myself placing them in storage until our bar is ready. We got rid of our old living room furniture and replaced with our new vintage couch and chair. Off the Bolt Customer Service employees were great. I was not expecting them to turn out the way they did "BRAND NEW" and better looking than some of the Vintage Couches and Chairs that we've seen at Estate Sales. Thank you Off the Bolt, we would definitely refer your company to anyone needing to have their furniture restored. read more

Off the Bolt is run like a great business should be run. From the time you walk in the door, you are greeted by wonderful friendly welcoming women, Sylvia, Sarah, Zoe and of course Mike. Mike is the owner and I must tell you he is the kindest, most skilled person in his field, keeps his word, is on time, even early, is a gentleman and is one amazing person. I would recommend everyone of my friends and family to this company. You are treated "like family!" In this day and age when everyone is just concerned with making money, it is refreshing to know there are still people out there that care. Mike did a job for me and when he walked away, I thought., "Now that is a man I want to do more work for me." He's a gem. if I could hit ten stars I would have. Leslie Magidsohn with gratitude! read more

I've used Off The Bolt for a number of custom pillows and purchased a gorgeous ottoman from them while they were located in Woodland Hills. Was always happy and impressed with their customer service and their workmanship. Unfortunately, since their relocation the quality of both has been diminishing. The end result of my last visit was a poorly made pillow that was badly put together, uneven in its construction and had dark stains on the fabric that were not there when purchased. I ended up throwing it out. I only hope that this was a one off experience and not something that will be a repeat performance. I admit to being cautious about using them again. read more

No service. Arrogant attitude as I was wearing gardening clothes I suppose. Found much Better service elsewhere

My friend recommended Off The Bolt. My order was completed quickly and with excellent workmanship. The staff is courteous, friendly, and a pleasure to deal with. The store is extremely clean, the parking is easy, and I am so happy that I found out about this store. Caryl Calabasas, CA read more

After several months of looking I was able to find what I wanted from the wide selection available OTB let me take samples home to check how the fabric would look during day and evening. Fabric was ordered and came in a few days early. The 8 chairs were picked up and in a very short time were delivered. Quality of workmanship was excellent and the result far exceeded my expectations. I am now a customer for life. Thanks to you all for your excellent customer service attitude and quality results. read more
