Our story

Upholstery Done the Old Fashioned Way

Herman and his family have run Graves Upholstery for years, working out of a shop in downtown Fresno that has never worried much about first impressions. What matters is what happens on the workbench.

We handle furniture and vehicles with the same care. We brought a wingback chair back from over a decade in a customer's basement, its frame broken and its fabric frayed, and finished it with custom throw pillows made to match. We've also put a new convertible top on a 2001 Camaro SS in two days and rebuilt a torn, blown out driver's seat on a Buick Enclave the same afternoon it came in.

We've grown one referral at a time, and that's exactly how we like it.

What customers say

“About 15 years ago I found an old claw-footed wingback chair by the side of the road in rural western Massachusetts. I hate to see beautiful things go to the dump, so I brought it home, stuck it in the basement, and there it remained for over a decade. It was in rough shape, with a broken back, frayed and faded upholstery, and looking 100-years old (which it probably was). When we moved to California the chair came with us, and we finally resolved to give it a new lease on life. We chose the right place to do that when we found Graves Upholstery. Herman and his family do excellent work, and I'm sitting in that beautiful chair right now writing this review. It's not only beautiful, it's comfortable too, and they made us matching throw pillows as well. We couldn't be happier with the work, thanks Herman!”

Sean Werle

“Old and tired appearance and front, but does an excellent job. Cares about customer and depends on word of mouth to grow business the old fashion way. Don't be intimidated by the looks of the place. Give it a chance.”

Jim Farjadi
