Actually went there with a friend who was having upholstery work done there for his 2018 corvette. Very good job on his seats. But the vehicles in the shop we're custom rods and the workmanship on those vehicles were exceptional. Obviously they know what their doing!!

Back in November 2018 I went to this shop to see if they would recover my dash. They turned it away so when prompted by Google for a review I gave them a 1 start because they could not do upholstery work I needed done. So I found someone else that could do the job. In early April 2019 I still needed my front bucket seats, sun visors, and two door inserts done. I thought I would try Andrew's again and I dropped off my seats, sun visors, and door inserts and agreed to their price. I was told that they would be done today May 7, 2019. After work I called their shop and I was informed that they still

In the last few months I stopped in to inquire about some foam materials for a halloween costume and a month later to ask questions about best practices for repairing a rip in my sports car convertible top. Andrew in both cases stopped and took time to help and advise me. I bought some foam and he gave me some good construction advice. When I wanted to ask about stitching a rip and reinforcing it, he helped me out with some simple supplies. He is very generous with his time and resources. If you need an upholstery shop look no further. By walking into his business you can see the great pride and

Andrew's redid the upholstery on the driver's side of my husband's sports car about a year ago and we just picked up our son's Corvette. Andrew's built up the seat and repaired the automatic mechanism and its levers. It works like it did when it was new and the seat looks great. Both our cars now look like new. We have been unusually pleased with the quality of work and the service we have gotten from Andrew's. I wish I could give this little shop much bigger stars.
