Give Your Furniture New Life at A & B Custom Upholstery

We know where many top chi-chi interior designers in Orange County go for great quality custom furniture and upholstery. They call David Madrid, owner of our favorite, A&B Furniture + Upholstery in Westside Costa Mesa.

For more than 30 years, Madrid and his family have offered top quality custom upholstery and custom furniture at incredibly fair prices.

Madrid’s team can custom make just about anything you want and can even duplicate furniture from magazines. They’re the go to source for refurbishing old wood, reupholstering outdoor cushions, and building pieces from scratch. With so many designers ordering excess pieces, you can also save on left behind chairs, sofas, and other in stock furniture.

They also stock high quality fabrics, including Ralph Lauren, Duralee, Pindler & Pindler, Sunbrella, Kravet and many more.

Open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
