Albo Restoration Services

I bought a used Chrysler Town & Country, the leather on the driver's seat was torn, the dealer said he would get it fixed. After three months dealer did nothing, his "guy" never returned their calls, I told the dealer I would get it fixed and he agreed to pay for it. I got two estimates and one was from Albo Restoration, they were $50.00 higher than the other estimate, but I decided on Albo because I was impressed by how professional and friendly they were. They did a great job, I am very happy. I am giving the dealer Albo's name & phone number because they answer the phone, not like the dealer

The side bolster on the driver’s seat of my 5 year old Subaru developed a wear crack. Albo rebuilt the bolster with new material and foam so well that it’s absolutely indistinguishable from the original. The new foam makes the seat a little more comfortable which is a nice, unexpected plus. Excellent work at a fair price. I wouldn’t hesitate a moment to use them again or recommend them to my best friend.

I took in my 2007 TL to get a bit of custom work and repairs on my seats and I'm blown away by the quality of work that Irene and her team have done. They have fair prices and are the best upholstery shop in the Lake/Cook county area in my opinion. Irene gave me a time as to how long everything would take and they definitely stick to their deadline which is awesome. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone and will definitely be taking my future projects to Irene.

We had the interior furniture of our motor home reupholstered. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. Irene and her staff made our furniture look brand new. She is very knowledgeable about fabrics and has a great eye for color. I would not hesitate to use Albo Restoration again. I highly recommend them.

In a word, FANTASTIC! All I needed was some new foam for my 3 season room cushions. Brought the cushions in, Irene gave me a price and said the foam would be there in about a week. I took the cushions home so I could continue to use them until the foam came in. In about a week, the foam came in, I brought in the cushions and THE NEXT DAY the cushions were ready. GREAT service and Irene is easy to talk with.
I highly recommend Albo!

I had an excellent experience with Albo restorations. They recovered my front seat in my 2005 Chevy Silverado. The workmanship far exceeded my expectations, the leather matched perfectly, and the final cost was exactly as I was quoted.

Irene was awesome to work with! She recovered 3 bar stools for me and the workmanship was fabulous. Great price, quick turnaround and now they look brand new. Will definitely be a repeat customer.

I am restoring a 56 Buick and needed some trim remade. I brought in the old pieces and 2 weeks later, I had perfect new parts. The work they preformed is excellent. I will be bringing more interior parts to be repaired.

In 2018 I brought my 2004 Chrysler Crossfire in to have the headliner replaced. The materials that Albo Restoration used was perfect! Irene talked me through the process and price. The vehicle was promised on the day she said. They did a beautiful job. I would recommend them to everyone.

I entrusted Irene and her team with all the custom leather for my air cooled Porsche 911 restoration. This included custom seats, dash, shifter, door and side trims, and a bespoke roll cage. The workmanship is top quality. They've also re-upholstered some of my home furnishings, with the same top quality workmanship.
Pros:
- High quality
- Attention to detail
- Great design eye
- Fair costs
- Willing to partner with you with a team approach
- Leather supplier knowledge and supplier management
Cons:
- There are few who can do the work they do - so they are very busy. Plan your timing ahead

We just had our 15-year-old convertible seats and dash restored at Albo...amazing job like having a new car again! Really impressed with the quality of workmanship.

I just had the center console top on my Acura TL replaced by Albo Restoration Services. Over time, the original foam under the console top disintegrated and the top ripped, probably from my son's dog. I brought it to Albo and they did an amazing job replacing the top! The top now looks brand new. They included padding so the center console is now comfortable again to use as an armrest. I am so pleased with their work!

Had the front seat of the BMW convertible reupholstered with leather. Each of the arm rests also received new leather - the doors and the middle. The work is exceptional!!! Irene is a charm to work with and her partner has a perfect eye for color matching. He cleaned and updated the color on the passenger leather seat. The imperfections are completely gone. Fabulous. Albo is the place to have replacement or custom work done. THANK YOU!!

I have a Porsche Cayenne and I wanted to get my seats upholstered and also add in some decorative stitching. I was very happy with the end results. I highly recommend Albo to go get your custom work done.

Hello. I typically do not take the time to write reviews online ... Unless I truly believe that sharing my story can help out other people.

For many like me I'll give the option to cut this story short, but by all means... if you want more insight into why, I am taking some sacrifices to write to be able to explain how. What I experienced today was a group of people prioritizing the bottom-line over running an honest business. meaning they care more about your money more than your satisfaction.

This is a great business! Irene and her team performed a wonderful restoration of the interior of my 2009 Subaru Impreza, including new leather seats throughout, with contrasting stitching, and complete interior detailing. It is a stunning result. On top of everything, she was extremely to easy to work with and her prices are very reasonable. I recommend Albo Restoration without any reservations.
