Hishmeh’s Custom Upholstery — Local services in Middlesex

I have a 21-year-old Buick and the upholstery on the car's ceiling was starting to sag everywhere. It seemed not long until it would totally fall down and cause a major problem. I got the name of Hishmeh Upholstery from my mechanic about a year ago when the problem was not quite so bad. I called him today about an estimate and he said to come on over. I figured I would bring it back next Monday since he was almost about to close shop. He said he would do it the same day or that I might have it the next day, so we came back (I needed a ride home) and he wound up doing it in about four hours.

This kind of work is a little bit expensive, but not many people do it, and Jim HIshmeh did it property and explained a few things that might go wrong in the process so there would not be any nasty surprises. (In this case, a fixture above a passenger door came off and couldn't be replaced, but he told me it was a risk in advance; the pieces are all plastic, no hardware, and the plastic gets brittle over time).

It was a pleasure doing business with him, and I will probably have him do two chairs that need some help.

This job was for a "headliner" and he said he just loves doing them. It's rare you find someone so enthusiastic about their work,...

I cannot say enough about Jim and the work he does and has done for me. I made the decision to have two, 55 year old chairs re-upholstered. These chairs were of great sentimental value to me. We made the decision to resurrect these chairs due to the fact that their construction was sound and we do in fact use them. After some time searching upholstery I came across Jim and Hishmeh’s Custom Upholstery. I called Jim and made some time to meet with him. He took the time with me to understand what I was looking for and “really” gave me the feeling that he understood what these chairs meant to me. In the end I could not be happier. The attention to detail in the result was amazing. All of the positive reviews I read were ABSOLUTLY true. I would recommend Jim Hishmeh highly. I cannot help but look at these chairs and smile. AMAZING! ...

Jim was such a joy to work with. He was very personable and helped myself and my significant other through the process of getting my grandad's pull-out loveseat reupholstered and fixed up. This was originally from the late 60s/early 70s and as far as I knew had never been changed from its original state. It was sunbleached, fraying, had spent a few years at my parents where it received cat claw damage, and generally worn out in the cushioning. In short, it was a lot of work.

Jim made everything from picking out the fabric, to dealing with the ordering, dropoff and pickup easy. It feels like brand new and all the corners and welting is very professional looking. His prices were competitive to other quotes I got and he was very upfront about the time it would take.

TLDR:...
