Happily joining the chorus of five star reviews. My long-awaited, brand new splurge of a couch was delivered yesterday afternoon and simply would not make it through my apartment door. Fabio answered my phone call, quoted me less than the other places, and said he could be there within an hour and a half. I deferred to this morning instead and he was right on time. I was stressed and he immediately put me at ease saying, "Don't worry, it's almost over. Your couch is almost in your apartment!" Within 45 minutes, he had taken both arms off of my couch, brought everything in, reattached

A review 6 weeks late, but Fabio is the absolute best. Have a huge, beautiful, expensive bookcase the movers couldn't get into the apartment. I was sure I'd have to store it away forever in storage or sell it, which gutted me because it's the only nice piece of furniture I own. Fabio swooped in, cheaper than any other option, and figured out a solution immediately. Very efficient, very friendly, AND even helped accommodate for our sloping floors so the bookcase was stable. If we ever have a similar issue, we'll be contacting Fabio for sure!

I have a huge couch that wouldnt fit in my apartment. I was desperate so i loomed i to the couch doctor and dr sofa first but after doing my research and giving them a call, i realized theyre scammers and will overcharge for everything. They were so vague with their rates and charges but then i stumbled upon couch surgeon who was extremely responsive, gave a flat rate that they wouldn't increase no matter how complicated it got and they came within 2 hours of me contacting them. They came and did their jobs so incredibly well, i was shocked at how well they knew their field. They took my couch

Surgeon is totally the right word. Fabio was able to quickly and skillfully take apart an antique armchair to bring it up a staircase that was just a bit too narrow. I was a little worried when the saw came out, but within an hour my family heirloom was back together and you wouldn't even know anything happened.
Even though my case was not an emergency he was over right away. Gave a reasonable quote compared to others I've seen - I mean, it's not cheap, but after watching him work, it was worth every penny. And has such a great attitude too! He was happy to explain what he was

We moved to a new apt, and our movers could not get our couch to fit the elevator or the stairs, so they had to leave it in the first floor lounge while we tried to figure out how to quickly sell a couch. And then we learned about Fabio's business! He came over the next morning, and a couple hours later our couch was in our apt where it belonged, looking great. Highly recommend him!

Fabio is simply an expert. I bought a leather RH sofa secondhand and he had it moved and reassembled in an hour or two. He even carried it up 9 flights of stairs.
The previous owner had used a different company during their own move and Fabio showed me all the small details where they had been careless. Then, he fixed them.
Why hire a company when you can hire a craftsman?
Five stars.

Fabio was INCREDIBLE!! I would highly, highly recommend him for any service. For me, he disassembled and reassembled a couch that would not fit through my tiny NYC stairwells. And, I was SO SO nervous to have my brand new couch broken down - but Fabio did an INCREDIBLE job. He walked me through how he did it and why his approach (aka NO SAWS to your sofa!) is the best for the long term. I couldnt watch, but he took the arms off my couch and got it up to my 3rd floor. He also quoted me a fair price and stuck to it - no upcharging. Better than some of his competitors, I've heard. I would definitely

These guys were great. After being stuck in a tricky predicament of ordering a couch that didn't fit in my buildings entrance I was told to call the couch doctor. I did a bunch of research and called 3 companies for quotes. They gave me the lowest quote and also the most responsive service.
When the delivery company delivered my couch 2 hours earlier than planned Sergio came only 45 minutes later and the job was done quickly and efficiently. So grateful to them!

I moved into a new apartment a few weeks ago and KNEW the narrow staircase would be an issue for my couch. Contacted the Couch Surgeon and he came, disassembled, moved, and reassembled my couch in... maybe an hour tops? Pretty impressive. He ALSO discovered a piece of my couch that was broken (some board or something) and managed to fix that in the process. Definitely recommend!!! Worth every penny.

The couch surgeon came to my home and assisted me in moving a headboard that has been in my garage for a year since we moved into our new home. It was only necessary to partially disassembled the headboard which they did in about an hours time. They then move the headboard into my home and set it up in my bedroom. The service was wonderful and I was fortunate to have a headboard that I really always liked instead of having to scrap it and buy something else. I recommend them highly.

This is an amazing service! I can’t recommend them enough. Their communication prior was so easy and clear. They provided an exact cost for the service and a clear time and date quickly. They arrived on time, were efficient, and went above and beyond in their service. Not only was the couch moved and put back together perfectly, but they even made some adjustments to get it in even better condition than it had been before. After much searching to find a great company for this service with clear communication and straightforward scheduling, I’m so glad we discovered Couch Surgeon. Nowhere else

Seriously? Fabio is my hero. We were faced with the prospect of never seeing our $5,000 sofa again - a combination of too wide, too long, too tall and too leather was keeping it from winding its way into our new apartment. Thick problems. One call to Fabio and he was here the next day, exactly when he said he would be. He immediately got to work and less than an hour later all was right with the world. I mean, as right as anything can be in 2020.
Trust the reviews and don't hesitate to call on NY Couch Surgeon. Whatever he charges you will be well worth the price.

NY Couch Surgeon is the absolute BEST. After we realized our very large (8.5ft x 4ft) Pottery Barn leather couch would not fit in the elevator or stairwell of our new apartment, we spent hours searching google in a panic to find someone to help us. After reading 150+ reviews for 5 different companies, I was convinced Fabio was the guy to call and we were right. He showed up on time with his son and was super nice and professional. Although it was a little traumatizing watching them take the couch apart, its back together in perfect condition. It's very clear he is an expert in furniture construction

I’m SO IMPRESSED by these guys! I’ve seen posts about how people were skeptical about all of the 5 star ratings.. I felt the same way. I have a big couch and was panicked about it not being able to fit into my new place. They had it disassembled, transported and reassembled in LESS THAN AN HOUR! I’ll definitely be using them again. Would recommend to anyone with the same problem!
