What a great place! Fabulous selection of fabrics, great customer service, an easy, pleasant and stress-free experience. Went here to have a chair re-upholstered and the process couldn't have been smoother. Will definitely return.

The team at The Custom Shop was exceptional. They helped us make the perfect choice for fabric from among the many options in their showroom. And they completed our slipcover replacement project quickly. When there was a brief delay they communicated it clearly. And when the stitching needed a minor adjustment, they took care of it quickly -- with beautiful results. We couldn't be happier with our love seat makeover!
