About M&A Custom Upholstery
M&A Custom Auto Upholstery is one of the oldest shops around. We take great pride in the reputation we have in the surrounding area. Our goal is to provide the best service possible for our customers. We have been customizing and restoring automobiles for a very long time and are knowledgeable in every area of the industry. Although the business is just a bit over 26 years old, the experience dates well beyond that. Much of our knowledge of the older restoration projects results from the fact that we worked on these cars when they were new.
M&A does a lot of business with shops and dealers, but our main business is the retail customer. We prefer to do mostly retail work. We only use our accounts with shops and dealers to fill in the time gaps between retail work. We feel this is the only way possible to do such high quality work. We do not want to sacrifice our craftsmanship so dealers can get work done "cheap and quick".
M&A is a family owned and operated business. We have a staff capable to take on most auto, marine, aviation, and commercial upholstery projects, no matter how big or small. Along with our staff, we also employ a full time FAA licensed Airframe and Powerplant mechanic to assist with our aviation upholstery projects and to help troubleshoot and diagnose electrical and hydraulic problems with convertible top operating systems.
M&A has one of the largest material stocks of almost any trim shop. Although we can order any material in almost any quantity, we firmly believe in maintaining a high stock level in house. We have several thousand running yards of material in our shop. We stock all types of original cloth and tweed, vinyl, headliner, leather hydes, carpet, and even convertible tops. We believe that by maintaining such a high stock level and buying in bulk, our customers and us can both benefit. We obviously can't stock every type of material on the market, so we maintain excellent business relationships with several large suppliers and manufacturers to ensure a constant flow of convertible tops and materials that are usually only one days shipping away from us.
Materials We Stock
We have three separate stock locations, including a small section in our front showroom, and an entire second floor location.
