Joseph's Upholstery - Los Angeles, California

We had a 25 year old suite and Joseph’s did a fantastic job bringing it back to life, it is just like new. If you visit the shop don’t be put off. Absolutely recommend Juan and the team if you need anything doing.

From the moment I walked into Joseph’s Upholstery on Pico, I knew I was in a real upholstery shop. My father Mario (watching over see picture) was an amazing upholsterer that would look under the chairs in the Metropolitan Museum in Manhattan and could take an old chair that someone had thrown out and turn it into something beautiful. I recognized the old heavy duty sewing machine on a wooden stand and the smells of the fabric. The beautiful, controlled chaos. I instantly felt this was the real deal.
Eddie was great. He helped me pick out a thick wearable fabric that I will have and love for many years. The down cushions were getting a little sad and flat, so Eddie said he could plump them up with some down inserts which he did.
When I picked up the cushions, I knew they looked good, but it was hard to imagine how beautiful my couch would look when I put it all together. It’s a giant couch which I bought for the comfort of my 6’2” son and the results are breathtaking.
The last time I purchased slipcovers for my giant couch, nine years ago it was not a pleasant experience. First of all they weren’t nice like Eddie. They didn’t pre-shrink the fabric properly so it wasn’t long before the zipper in the back wasn’t closing. Because the fabric was so tight it was also hard for me to put on and off. The fabric that goes under the muslin fabric that is part of the slipcover under the cushions was thin and very shortly was ripped and shredded. I discussed all this with Eddie and this time we agreed that besides the pre-shrinking, there would be no zippers. I’ve taken a shot of the Velcro connect in the back which I love. The muslin under the cushions is a nice thick fabric that I can tell will last many years. It seems weird to even call this “slipcovers” since that hardly describes how substantial and fabulous this new fabric is covering my couch.
I didn’t meet Juan Xiquin, but Eddie told me he’s the one that did the actual work. I’m picky, obviously I’m the daughter of an upholsterer so I had high hopes, if not expectations. All expectations were met and exceeded. Worth every penny. I’m so happy to write this review. I love my new slipcovers.

Amazing work. We needed 3 bar stools reupholstered.

Joseph's was timely and very responsive. I brought in the cushions and fabric I wanted, though they had a great selection of fabric on-site if it were an emergency. It was done within a matter of days. The work is clean, and the details we asked for were perfectly matched (detail being the lip on the edge of the fabric) . We recommend this business to anyone looking to restore their fabric furniture. It was a great experience

Edit: went back months later for another job, sunken leather bench, and Joseph never disappoints. Price, time, service and quality are A1.

The ONLY upholstery company I trust. No matter how big or small or special the project is Joseph is going to get it done in a timely matter, with the best quality you can have at probably at a more affordable cost than anyone else. I feel so comfortable around everyone and have even visited the workshop to check on my project. I can not recommend this company and the employees enough

Ok ran here to write a good review for this company. I had a couch that was massive and couldn’t fit through the door of my art deco 1940’s LA apartment and Joseph’s team did me so good. The couch looks virtually untouched and still just as big. It looks like they did no work on it which is impossible because it fits through the door now! We tried to get it through the back door and it wouldn’t even fit there so I wasn’t feeling very optimistic.

Photos of the couch now and when it couldn’t fit through my door originally.

Thanks so much Joseph and team!

Eddie was a huge help. Joseph’s restored a beloved, but worn velvet bench and replaced the fabric/restuffed the tufting/repaired the legs. They did EXCELLENT work with very fair pricing.
