Nesbitt Upholstery

Two years ago, I contacted Alfred Nesbitt to see if he was interested and available to re-​upholster two living room wing chairs that I fell in love with at Next to New, a consignment shop, in Mount Pleasant. (I randomly selected his name among a list of referrals provided by the front desk at N2N.) Well, it wasn’t exactly that simple … I actually needed him to pick up the chairs at the store the next day … and hold them at his shop until I found and ordered the perfect fabric. He replied, «No problem» and assured me that my chairs would be safe in his shop until I was ready to move forward. (I did advance a reasonable deposit.) Well, it took me more than three months to find suitable fabric and for the custom order to arrive. As I was still working, Mr. Nesbitt graciously picked up the roll of fabric at my home, turned the job around in a matter of days and delivered the chairs and unused fabric back to my home. Hey, I’m a stickler for detail … so when I say both chairs look great … you can rest assured, they did … and the price was fair.
Flash forward two + years … the fabric on the top of the covered bench in front in our bed needed some ‘refreshing’ so, I put the bench and unused fabric from the chairs in my car and headed to Nesbitt Upholstery. It was a bit tricky to find as there’s no signage on Highway 17 North, but, Mr. Nesbitt’s directions were simple, «Turn onto the driveway between the yellow house and Gerald’s Tires … if you pass Gerald’s, you’ve gone too far.» Soon after I made that right turn I saw the sign for Nesbitt Upholstery, knew that I was at the right place. Alfred met me outside his shop (the garage), he unloaded the bench and fabric and I went on my way. That was Friday, July 3. I received a call this morning (July 6) that my bench was ready and picked it up right after lunch. It looked brand new! I have a bit more fabric and considering some pillows. Who am I gonna call? Alfred Nesbitt, of course!
