Jorge Meraz-Baca Upholstery

Awesome job on my 2 wing chairs and footstool. Reasonable prices, timely turnaround! Thank you Jorge!

I had chairs and an ottoman recovered by Jorge. It was very easy to communicate my designs to him. I highly recommend him. The quality of his work is excellent. I selected the fabric, Jorge ordered it, and the work was completed by his initial deadline of two weeks. I would definitely use him again.

I have been absolutely thrilled with Jorge and cannot recommend him highly enough. I had a chair that I wanted to recover with a rug. I reached out to several upholsterers, and not only was he one of the only ones to get back to me, his customer service and price made him the best choice by far.
The chair was done before the estimated time, and I am beyond thrilled with the work. I asked him to do something tricky and he did everything I asked for. The workmanship and final piece was even better than I imagined.
Thank you, Jorge!

Jorge was recommended to me by the owners of Satin Moon fabrics on Clement Street, and he did an excellent job on our 8 dining room chairs. It had been 15 years since I had upholstered them. Jorge gave them a very good assessment and warned me new foam might be needed. I also had not bought enough fabric to include the welting around the chairs so I ended up having to buy a coordinating fabric that actually added to the look. Jorge’s initial estimate was very competitive (not much higher than what I paid 15 years ago) and though the price went up at the end because new foam and webbing were indeed needed, it was still a fair price. The chairs are so much more comfortable than what I had before and the upholstery is gorgeous. Jorge truly cares about the work he produces and clearly wants to share suggestions and ideas for the best results. My project took 1 week from the date he picked up the chairs. I highly recommend him.

We just had 4 dinner chair seats, repadded, and reupholstered. Jorge was a pleasure to work with. Nice guy, really helpful, and professional communication.
We had chosen our own upholstery fabric before hand to match our room and existing furniture and Jorge was super flexible.
He was kind enough to pick up the seats while in our neighborhood, the price was fair and there was a pretty quick turn around.
Actually I was originally going to opt for cheaper options, but Jorge made some great suggestions and I’m really glad I took his advice. The chairs are much more comfortable with the better padding and webbing. Definitely going to work with him again.

Like another customer below, we had a very poor interaction with Jorge. We scheduled to for him to come to our home at 10am today to take a look at a sofa that needs refinishing. I waited for 90 minutes before calling him. He had both my email and phone but did not contact me at either one — though claimed to have done so (i.e., straight-​up LIED). I told him we would be taking our business elsewhere. Very unpleasant and unprofessional.

I had 3 chairs upholstered by Jorge. The first one was an easy chair that I bought at Macy’s in the late 70″ It was time for an update and it now looks very contemporary. In a second project he did two mid-​century slipper chairs. These two were more complex because the interior needed major work, but Jorge convinced me that they were worth cost, because they were quality chairs. They all came out beautifully and his prices were very competitive with other bids that I got and much lower than a higher end person that I had used in the past. Honestly, I can’t tell the difference between their work. I came into both projects with my own fabric from Sal Beressi Fabrics, my go to place for discount fabrics.

This is the second project Jorge has done for me and I’m delighted with his work! He made my Arts and Crafts style sofa look even better than when it was new! The density of the seat cushions has been strengthened; he refinished the wood, and his workmanship is beautiful. I could not be happier.

I’m an interior designer and have worked with Jorge on two projects involving recovering and refinishing dining chairs. They were very different — one design was wood framed with velvet and trim detail and the other chrome frames with slung leather. Jorge got frame refinishers on the projects and did an excellent job for both styles! He is warm, patient and committed to a beautiful outcome. I highly recommend him!

I was looking for someone to make an upholstered headboard and was referred to Mr. Meraz-​Baca. We spoke on the phone about the style and size headboard I needed and we agreed on a price. He asked that I purchase the fabric and when it was ready he would come by to take final measurements and pick up the fabric. I spent $ 170.00 on fabric and called him to schedule a time to meet. We agreed to meet on a Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. I called him at 4:00 p.m. to confirm. When he did not show up by 6:30 p.m. I called again. He said he had forgotten to come by. We agreed to meet the following day. An hour before our meeting he called to say he had a stomach ache and could not meet. When I told him that this was unacceptable he hung up the phone on me.
I have since found someone else to make the head board, but at a much higher price. I would have ordered a premade headboard (at a much lower price) had I not relied on Meraz-​Baca.
