Dinette & sofa reupholsterer in LA, OC and Ventura, CA

I need an RV upholsterer in the San Fernando Valley or Los Angeles , Orange county, or Ventura county,

I removed the jackknife sofa once and the cushions are sewn in rather elaborately, or else the DW and I would tackle doing it ourselves. I need someone that knows what he's doing.

  • Another option is to just throw away the jackknife and put in recliners. You can probably buy recliners for less than hiring out the upholstery.
  • Do you need the cushioning replaces or just the fabric recovered? If it is just the fabric, I bet you could tackle it yourselves. I recovered ours last fall and we're happy with the results. The jacknife was definitely more tricky, but not awful, it was all hand sewn. The dinette was done by machine and much more straightforward. I posted a blog post about it: New Upholstery

    If you decide to try it yourselves, shoot me a PM if you have specific questions and I'll try to walk you through it.
  • I had shop4seats.com/rv-seating build a dinette for our Cambria. First class operation done in house. Will build to your specifications. Now I have to find a home

    for my rest easy sofa I took out. They are located in La Habra. I guess you are looking just for a reupholsterer
  • Thanks, I was hoping there was someone in the SFV or close by. May have to go to an auto upholsterer. Like I said the cushions are no problem, it's the jackknife sofa that's a lot of work.

    I had a good experience with Quality Custom Upholstery in El Segundo when I was passing through. Two brothers, nice guys and knowledgeable.
  • While this place may be a little farther from you than what you asked for.

    Neffs Upholstery did the re-upholstery on my Ex Rental before I bought it and it is Quality work.

    They also seemed to match pretty closely the original fabric in color and quality. I am really happy with the results.
