I used Scrimshaws to reupholster furniture for both a dining room set and a living room set. I am very happy with the results, and the cost for the work and fabric was excellent too. Fabric selection is almost limitless, and the reupholstery process was fast! We worked through Linda, who helped us select fabric and then kept us informed about process status along the way. I'd highly recommend Scrimshaws for any reuphostery work you need!
