Perfect Finish Upholstery

Vladimir did an amazing job reupholstering my old armchair and ottoman. He was conservative in how much fabric he asked for (I actually had to go get more, which wasn’t a problem), which I appreciated since reupholstering is expensive. His price for reupholstering was also half of the other quote I got. The final product is gorgeous. He repadded everything, and added nail heads that I asked for, as well as picked up and delivered for free. I would definitely use Perfect Finish again!

Great job and value! Love the settee and stool! Super friendly and well priced. Will use again.

This review is almost a year overdue, but just want to add to the great things people have said about Vladimir & Perfect Finish.
I got two (super raggedy) vintage chairs off Craigslist for $ 60 I’d always planned to have redone, but put off because of the cost. Five years later, my husband & I finally decided to splurge on having them reupholstered. We got several quotes & Perfect Finish was by far the most affordable.
Vladimir was great to work with and they did an AMAZING job on our chairs!!! The quality of the work was great and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Since the foam cushioning needed replacing we were able to give the chairs a more modern shape. They had a lot of fabrics to choose form, but we ended up buying our own at Joann’s. Vladimir & his team were able to take our crappy chairs & turn them into something out of a Room & Board catalogue. We’ve had the chairs for almost a year & I still love looking at them.
The business itself is pretty old-​fashioned. The storefront is no frills & they only take cash/​check. Vladimir was the only person we had contact with, but he emailed/​returned calls in a timely manner. If we ever need anything else reupholstered we’ll definitely take it here!

I’d give them 6 Stars or more if I could! Extremely accommodating, very professional, and amazing craftsmanship. I was nervous sending off a chair that had been in my family for decades, originally covered by a beloved relative. But Vladimir and his crew did an amazing job reupholstering the chair and managed to save most of the old fabric (very sentimental) so me to use for future projects. They even reinforced the legs on the chair — a complete bonus. The cost was very reasonable and I got the chair back earlier than expected. I could not be more pleased.

I have had several pieces of furniture reupholstered in the past and when it was time to reupholster our dining room chairs again, I was surprised at the high quotes I received from several companies, since these prices were 150% more than I paid the first time around. Vlad’s quote was super reasonable, he was very easy to communicate with via email and phone, showed up on time and delivered our beautiful chairs five days in advance of the quoted date. The finished product is truly perfect! I highly, highly recommend this company.

We made an appointment with Vladimir for him to pick up our chair for upholstering today at 2 pm, but he was a no show. I waited for an hour, then called the store and left a message on the answering machine. Perhaps he had an emergency. I was never contacted.

I can’t say how absolutely wonderful this company is. Vladimir did a great job. From the initial consultation, to the quote, to the work done, to the customer service; everything was way above what I expected. I can’t recommend them enough. If you have ANY reupholstery needs, this is the company to use.

Superior, old-​world craftsmanship; delivery within the time promised; good price, better than the competitors I consulted. Viva Vlad!

Vladimir did a fantastic job! I inherited a chair from my grandmother when she passed away so it has a lot of sentimental value. The chair had a great shape, but the fabric was straight out of the 70’s, so I found Vladimir. He replaced the 50+ year old cushions and re-​upholstered the chair and ottoman and re-​painted the legs. I will cherish the updated chair and am so grateful to Vladimir for his talent. He went above and beyond and delivered the chair, which was so helpful as I do not own a car. Thank you, Vladimir!

Vladimir worked magic on two old chairs that had been in my family for years. He picked them up, bolstered the cushions, reupholsteref them and deliveredthem back. They looked fabulous. Vladimir was on time, met his promised schedule and went beyond what I asked him to do. I’ll be back for more!

What can I say that hasn’t already been said in all the previous positive reviews? Vladimir is The Man! Look no further for an excellent job, friendly and accommodating service and timely results.
And don’t tell anyone — even though he insists he’s not a refinisher, your chair will come back looking re-​finished as well as re-​upholstered.

Vladimer is super talented, patient, responsive, and runs an excellent upholstery business. We picked up a set of couches that needed some work. We were very specific about the fabric we were looking for, which ended up taking WAY longer than it should have. He kept the couches for us for months, literally, many months. He never pressured us to make a decision, didn’t charge us any storage fees, and most importantly — he kept them! Once we found the fabric, he completed the work in a timely manner and they turned out exactly how I had pictured. He delivered on time in the window he provided. I would definitely use him again — and absolutely recommend him with full confidence.
Bonus! Free Delivery (may be within a certain mile radius, so definitely ask before assuming this).

Vlad! Vlad! Vlad!
I end up writing a review cause somebody/​place severely disappointed me, or the complete opposite happened. Here we have the latter.
All small business should get an MBA from the VLAD upholstery school.
He returns calls. And emails. His quotes are competitive if not better than the highest rated places in Chicago. He comes to your house, gets your furniture, and drops it back off looking like new. And he is an upholsterer, not a re-​finisher! The quality of his work is excellent. He has good ideas for fabric and upholster styles when you don’t. We have now used him three times. Once, there was an issue on a cushion, and he came back immediately and made the necessary repair. You can’t ask for more.
It helps to know that he was trained in Europe specifically to do upholstery work. I mention this because us Americans are obsessed with anything made, trained or claimed in Europe. And after you see his work, you understand why. Nothing against the other six continents, but when it comes to furnishings, the Old Country still got it! Luckily they have a rep in our zip code.

I looked for 4 quotes before going with Vladimir. Besides being reasonably priced he was quick to respond and gave me a good estimate with just a couple of e-​mail exchanges. I got a good hunch and I did not regret it.
I gave him the work of reupholstering our main living room sofa. An imported piece of Italian design. Vladimir was courteous, responsible, responsive and on-​time. Everything got done quickly and as promised. No complaints about the work quality.
I’d definitely recommend Perfect Finish Upholstery.

Vladimir has been my go to guy for reupholstery for years. He responds quickly, picks up and drops off, does beautiful work in a timely manner for a good price. I work for a high end interior designer so I know from good upholstery. Just today he dropped off a gorgeously done chair, cushions for our bar stools and an upholstered headboard. I notice all the little details like patterns lining up perfectly and the good news is that Vladimir does too!

We couldn’t be happier with our newly upholstered chair and ottoman. We also had 8 dining room chairs reglued. They’ve never been sturdier. Vladimir does quality work. He met the timeline, was responsive and always on time (or early) for pickup and delivery. Would definitely use Perfect Finish Upholstery again

I found this business through Unilocal and could not be happier with the job they did recovering two oversized chairs and an ottoman… in velvet. The work was done in the time promised. Very reasonable rates. Pickup and delivery on time.

When I finally got the chairs they were just about perfect. All the fabric raw ends covered neatly on the underneath side of the seats, joints tight and firmly in place. Excellent workmanship. The leftovers of my fabric were in as good condition as when I took it in with the chairs — and there was enough left for my next project. On workmanship alone this was a 5-​star job. But the experience in trying to pick up the chairs first time around was not good so I dropped one star for that.

I have been searching far and wide for someone that will re-​upholster my inexpensive estate-​sale find and to something chic — without breaking the bank. Vladimir made the process seamless.
From responding promptly to my email request — I took pictures of each piece of furniture and asked for a ball-​park figure (his pricing was more reasonable that 3 other vendors I quoted); and responding to several of my inquiries regarding yards of fabric. Free pick-​up/​delivery (within 3 miles of him) — all in all I was very happy with the result. My bench went from blah to wow in just a few days. I’d definitely use him again. =)

Vladimir does an exceptional job!
He completely rebuilt then re upholstered several antique chairs from the ground up. He trained in Europe and his craftsmanship with antiques was fantastic. Prices were spot on fair, and the turnaround was fast! I highly recommend this business.
My mother now has her favorite chairs out of the basement, looking great, and in use again. Priceless.
