Mainecoons Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 For more mundane stuff we have used the guy behind the green door in Riberas but for these chair cushions we want to have redone we are looking for a more high quality place that has really good replacement seat foam and can do more detailed work. Your suggestions appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others feel free to chime in. Much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostlylost Posted October 10, 2021 Report Share Posted October 10, 2021 Oscar's work for me has been excellent. I have outdoor cushions with 15 years and the fabric he used has not discolored. Recently had him repad some chair cushions... done right! You might have to wait as he is always backed up with work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcstroker Posted October 10, 2021 Report Share Posted October 10, 2021 I would definitely use Oscar. From the simplest job to the most complex he's never let us down. Much better than other upholsterers we've used. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonhill Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Oscar. No contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted October 11, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 Thank you all very much. As there is no hurry on this we can wait however long is needed. I vaguely recall Oscar's shop is past Christina Park in the direction of Mezcala. Can someone give me a reminder that will help in finding it again?

Ian Greenwood Posted October 11, 2021 Report Share Posted October 11, 2021 We recently had some quality upholstery done at what is it called Handy Artistic in Ribera’s …wide range of fabrics… Excellent results and considerably lower price than Cadillac.

Lexy Posted October 12, 2021 Report Share Posted October 12, 2021 Oscar Castaned is my choice. He's excellent. Last time I used him to cover two upholstered arm chairs. The only fabric I really liked was striped. He matched the stripes at the seams perfectly and also the cushions to the chair frames.
