Raffaele completely rehabbed my sad and flaking fake leather club chair and truly gave it new life. I knew I wanted to keep it because of the great size and design but didn't know if it was worth it to reupholster. He confirmed the chair was sound and that he would make sure to make it more solid when fixing it up. He was patient with me and helped me choose the right fabric (I had something very specific in mind) and let me bring home books and got samples sent to my house. When I saw the finished piece it looked and felt ten times more beautiful than I imagined it would. The structure was beefed up with foam and the upholstery work is impeccable. I am so excited to enjoy this amazing piece for years to come, thanks to Raffaele and his great team. read more

I had 6 dining chairs re-upholstered at Positano's Custom Upholstery and two of the chairs were arm chairs that they converted into side chairs for us. They did a fantastic job! We are very pleased with their craftsmanship. I highly recommend Positano's. Raffaele, the owner of the shop is a pleasure to work with. He is a professional, courteous, hard-working small business owner and he was patient in helping me pick out the new fabric from his many, many samples. The work was completed in a reasonable amount of time and they also went the extra mile and delivered the chairs to our home. We are glad we chose Positano's for the job and would highly recommend them. read more

Positano's provided high quality work and strong customer service. I needed barstool seats recovered and repadded. Even when new, the padding was so cheap you sat on the chair framing! Positano's was responsive and quick to provide a competitive quote, even offered to pick them up. They finished the job a week early AND now my barstools feel and look so high end - much better than when newly purchased (Lesson to self about ordering furniture online!). Positano's provided recommendations and craft experience that added years of value to my existing furniture. Will use again and very happy to recommend. read more

We reupholstered several pieces of furniture for our home. Positano Custon Upholstery was amazing! The selection of materials was very impressive and Raffele (the owner) helped us make our selections. He picked the furniture up quickly and the whole job was created in 4 weeks - 2 chairs, a sofa and 8 dining room chairs. The furniture was delivered and installed by Raffele and his son and it was quick and easy. I was expecting a big price tag on the project but it was very reasonable and less expensive than buying new furniture. We love it! Will definitely use his service again! read more

I couldn't be happier. My 20 year Ethan Allen dining room chairs fabric tore and it was time to have the cushions redone. Positanos was incredibly professional. The owner was so responsive, considerate and accountable to all my questions, help and time frame for the work done. They rebuilt the entire seat and it's better than the original one that was too soft. The fabric is better and colors more to my liking. Beautiful job! I can't thank them enough. I will be happy to return with more upholstery projects in the future. Thank you Raffael Positano. read more

Raffaele Positano has reupholstered several pieces in my home...sofas, chairs, dining chairs, benches. His work is excellent and his prices are competitive. He has a great selection of fabrics in all price ranges but will also help you source fabrics from other distributers. Raffaele is professional and easy to work with. He went out of his way to help me complete several furniture items in time for an event I was hosting. I have used him recently and while delays are common, my project was completed quickly. I highly recommend! read more

I could not be happier with the way my antique rocking chair (family piece around 100 years old) turned out! It went from being a faded, unstable, falling apart eyesore to the most beautiful and comfortable chair ever! Raphael Positano checked in with me on decisions and provided great advice on what was needed to restore my piece. To say I am thrilled is an understatement, and we will definitely be back to Positano's for future upholstery work! Highly recommend. read more

I recently had Positano's Custom Upholstery refinish our wood kitchen table which had a couple of burns from table decorations gone awry. They were professional, friendly, and timely. The table and leaf look great and my wife and I are very pleased with the results. We had previously used them to reupholster our dining room chairs which also came out great! Very good service & results! read more

My wife and I are extremely pleased with the high quality craftsmanship and service that Positano's provided in refurbishing our eight dining room chairs.
