Haven't had him do leather but the vinyl work he did for our RV was absolutely first rate. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dostortas Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 I went to Oscar based on recommendations here, and was unhappy with the work. He said he couldn’t get upholstery tacks, couldn’t reuse the existing ones on the chair pads so we agreed to staples. They did not remove the old fabric from the chair pads, in fact they didn’t remove the tacks either, they just covered the new fabric over the tacks. Looks very half assed and on top of that they “misplaced” the 4 extra meters of fabric that was left over so I couldn’t have it redone unless I purchased new fabric. I should have gone to Vegas on the highway in Ajijic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dostortas Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 Perhaps they are too busy so corners are getting cut? I know a number of people who are really happy with his work, sadly that was not my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
