After having bought fabric at another upholstery shop that was supposed to be velvet but was just a…read morecheap microfiber, then having my Victorian chair reupholstered with it at an antiques restoration place (had not opened the fabric roll at that point) that did an incredibly poor job (and apparently removed the original steel springs and replaced them with artificial webbing and foam), resulting in a cheap-looking and uncomfortable chair, Paul rebuilt my chair with period-correct muslin and steel springs (and he took pictures so we could appreciate the restored interior of the chair!). He then recovered the chair with an actual cotton velvet that I had selected (but he said was okay to use). The chair looks so much better now, is more comfortable, and we can rest easy knowing that the chair is back to the way it should be. Plus Paul picks up and delivers! I looked at a lot of upholstery shops and they all use artificial webbing and foam. Paul will do the work correctly and period-appropriately. P.S. the chair was originally upholstered in damaged needlepoint, that was a little too Victorian to recreate so we went with something a bit more neutral. P.P.S. I did not have a review in mind when I asked Paul to take photos (just wanted to be able to appreciate the restoration). But since I have them, I include them here.

Who knew that furniture disassembly and reassembly was a thing? I certainly didn't until I treated…read moremyself to an extra cozy Boston Interiors sectional and the sofa portion wouldn't fit up my front or back staircase. Whoops! I had already been waiting two months for delivery, so to say I was disappointed is an understatement. Then the panic kicked in. Since it was a custom sectional, I would get majorly dinged if I returned it. But what other options were there? That's where Melo and Sons came in. The delivery guy put me on the phone with his manager to talk it over. Yes, returning the sectional was an option, as was taking out my dining room window to bring the sofa portion in that way (hell no!) Or... I could have some pros disassemble it at their warehouse then reassemble it in my living room. Of my three options, the third was the winner by a longshot. As I was the first delivery of the day, I patiently waited until Melo and Sons opened then gave them a ring. Joanne immediately answered and put my nerves at ease. It was obvious I wasn't the first numpty to purchase a too big piece of furniture that needed saving by them. After providing her all the requested information, I had a delivery date for about three weeks out. By the time my Boston Interiors salesperson called to discuss the failed delivery, everything was already tucked and tied with Melo and Sons. When the big day finally arrived, Mike and George showed up right on time and quickly got to work. They laid down moving blankets to protect the floor then brought up the disassembled sofa in several carefully wrapped pieces. Aside from being the consummate professionals, they were funny to boot. It took them less than two hours to reassemble the sofa and at long last reunite it with its other half. That evening, after three long months, I finally got to relax on and enjoy my sectional in its full glory. All thanks to Melo and Sons and their niche specialty.
