Testimonials

A very beautiful job using a difficult fabric.He is HIGHLY skilled, kind, thoughtful and professional.

A very beautiful job!

When I first called, Mr. Leach did not think he could take on the job because he works mostly alone and it is a very large piece. When he did take it, he was clear that it would take him a long time to get it done. He did the job by the date he had promised. He was always extremely pleasant to deal with. He tried to limit his aesthetic advice, but the advice he gave was good. The sofa was done very nicely and I’m extremely pleased with the results.

Mr. Leach did a wonderfully complete make-over of my beloved chair. He was punctual, professional, a perfectionist, and honest. He picked up my chair to be reupholstered, and was flexible to allow me to pick out my own fabric from any place I chose, and over time communicated to me progress of his work. It looks like I gave him an old worn out chair, and he returned a brand new chair in its place. I loved also that he touched up the finish of the woodwork.

Richard upholstered an antique side chair for us. His expertise is impeccable and we have no problem recommending him to others. He is professional, knowledgeable, caring and considerate. He is truly a class act! We live in a 55+ community in Boothwyn and we are going to spread the word about his expertise. Richard came to our home and explained everything to us pertinent to the chair. He gave us places to go for fabric and was prompt in picking up the fabric once we procured it. His turn aro… Read more

Richard is great. A friend has used him for years and she suggested I contact him this winter to recover a cute chair I wanted to save as well as a curved bench. Rich matched a complicated pattern perfectly on the chair and suggested some cool design changes. You get what you pay for with upholsterers. Rich did a very nice job for me at an ok price; worth it. Book early, he’s busy.

Rich from Art Craft Upholstery did a great job reupholstering a loveseat from the early 1900s that I inherited from my grandmother. The piece had a lot of tufting and he did a beautiful job with all the details. He is a very nice guy and easy to work with. He was patient while I decided on the fabric and he kept me apprised of his progress.. The work took about 3 months but I was in no particular rush so that was fine. It was a pleasure to work with Rich and I would definitely use his services i… Read more

In 2008, Richard Leach reupholstered my parents’ 1962 sofa, and recently a friend managed to break one of the bars in the wooden frame. I’m about 40 minutes away. Although he brought all kinds of tools for any eventuality, he was actually able to fix it simply and quickly with a mending plate, reconnecting the clean break in the wood. He did it in the half hour allotted by a loading zone for parking. He was very fair in what he charged, and I’m very grateful. My Blue Beauty is back to it’s old s… Read more

Richard was such a pleasure to work with and I recommend him highly. He is kind, courteous, honest, prompt, professional, and extremely knowledgeable about re-upholstery. I had searched far and wide for someone with the expertise to properly restore some vintage pieces to their former glory. The people I came across were either middle-men out to make a profit, or tradesmen who used inferior products. Richard does all the re-upholstery himself and he uses quality materials. He will do whatever is… Read more
