Furniture reupholstering

Had my cat destroyed sofa and love seat recovered - Francesca was very helpful with providing estimate, choosing fabric which would be less susceptible to cat damage and incorporating some things in the recovering process to deter cats. The furniture looks fantastic.and the whole process was very easy.

I will be taking more furniture there for revitalizing.

Glad to be able to help, Robin - Cat's are our best customers... so we have developed a few tricks to combat furniture from being used as a scratching post. Please you are enjoying your newly recovered love seat and sofa. All the best, Francesca for Modern Done

Custom Sofa Upholstery

Modern Done recently reupholstered my 40 year old sofa. They have done a wonderful job with magnificent results at a very reasonable rate, and in a timely fashion. People have asked me why I did not simply purchase a new sofa. Although on a budget, I am insistent on quality and have an eye for detail. Most newly made furniture does not meet my standard. Modern Done utilizes old world European craftsmanship with beautiful results that will stand the test of time. Francesca was kind, charming and immensely helpful. I could not recommend Modern Done more highly.

Furniture Upholstery

Modern Done is a Vancouver institution. It was recommended by friends and we were very happy with their recovering of our teak chairs which have been in the family for several generations. They are friendly and professional and offered a prompt and reasonably-priced service. Lots of choices in fabrics and coverings and the staff clearly have a great deal of expertise. Wonderful job, our chairs look good as new.

Dining & Living Room Upholstery

My big Italian family in Coquitlam have been going to Modern-Done Upholstery to get their furniture recovered for over 40 years. Mr. Dappen was recommended to my parents by a neighbour and he has consistently proven his expertise and craftsmanship in his field by recovering several items over the years. When it came time for me to get my furniture recovered I knew exactly where to go. His daughter, Francesca, is also working with him and she was professional and most helpful in giving advise re colours and textures for my chesterfield and chairs, which I had done last year. I was so pleased to see the outcome and show off my pieces to my family and friends. This year, I went back to get my dining rooms chairs and a bench recovered and Francesca spent a lot of time helping me choose just the right material to compliment my other pieces – THANK YOU!!!
 
F.B.
Comfortably thrilled in Coquitlam!

Custom sofa upholstery

I took in this antique, Italian settee, expensive piece of furniture. I wanted to modernize it and have a feather cushion made, upholster the seat, back, and armrests.
I brought in my own white denim fabric, and my own new Swiss down feather bed to use as filling for cushion.
I spent 1/2 day in their store to pull all nail heads off my settee, and left my furniture bare bones for them to work on.
Well, what they did, they folded the bed in half and filled the inside corners of my cushion with old, scrap foam. The new upholstery was mounted lose on it and they lost my fabric remnants needed to tailor 3" long arm protectors for my couch.
When I called back and complained mentioning that they did not abide by our upholstery agreement we have made prior to me bringing this furniture in, the lady owner was rude, snubbed me and hung up on me.
Horrible work, horrible service.
