Great selection of fabrics; reasonably priced and friendly service.
In this area of Sydney, there are not a lot of upholsterers. However, the few that I found were significantly more expensive than Ade. As far as I could tell, there was no reason for this price differential, since Ade produced a beautiful cushion for a period, wooden bench that I was bringing back to life. Their selection of fabrics was more than adequate.
Soon I will be asking Ade to bring another chair of mine back to life. It is a mid-20th century chair which will need a full overhaul (springs and all). Ari (Ade's resident expert) says it is a gorgeous chair and was very concerned that I might elect to bin it instead.
I get the sense that Ari really loves furniture; I am happy to entrust him to bring mine back to life!
Do not under any circumstances go there!!
Unfortunately, when I collected my sofa cover after patiently waiting weeks for it to be made, and paying over $1,000 for it, I bought it home to find a hole in the back of it? What??? The hole had been meticulously covered up with a fabric patch and some glue. When i called to enquire and complain, he admitted he had done it. When I asked for a refund he refused. A few weeks later he refused to even make me another cover to rectify the problem altogether. So, I contacted Fair Trading. He lied to them, and told them I supplied him with 'faulty' fabric. What?? The fabric was supplied by one of the most recognised Upholstery Fabric Houses in Sydney?? This place is the most dodgy operation int he Eastern Suburbs. They are unprofessional, operate dishonestly, and don't even do a good job. Be warned!!! Stay well and truly away from ADE Upholstery.
