Reviews of Cathy Mares Custom Sewing Ltd
"Being sued (Dec 2022) by Cathy Mares for nonpayment of last installment. Can't wait for my attorney to present the unbelievable disastrous work done by this shop. Pictures, emails say it all."
"I had Cathy put honeycomb thermal sliding drapes across the openings to my sunroom. When open they are about 2” in depth. When closed, I was amazed at the temperature difference between the main house and the sunroom these first chilly mornings! I’m looking forward to my electric bill this month...there should be a noticeable difference!"
"We were really happy with the curtains she made for us. Constructed really well and installed professionally. Made a huge difference in our room. Thanks Cathy!"
"I recently had cushions re-stuffed at Cathy Mares. While the quality of their work was good, the customer service was anything but. Due to the very poor customer service and the extremely rude attitude of the woman at the front desk, I will never be using this business again. Each time I encountered her she was extremely belittling and very unfriendly. I feel certain that I can find someone in the area that can offer both quality work and treat their customers kindly and with respect. A paying customer should not have to choose between one or the other."
"My husband, kids and I are preparing to move into a gorgeous Victorian home soon, and planning to decorate accordingly. I thought I was in luck one afternoon when I found a beautiful victorian settee couch for sale on an online yard sale page, and I scooped it up as fast as I could figuring it would be perfect to set the feel inside the living room in our new house. However, when we picked it up, I was shocked to find it was pretty beat up and gross. The original velvet was stained and had been stored outside for a long time. I was devastated, but brought it home any way hoping to research cleaning it. It wasn't long into my research that I learned how difficult or impossible it might be to clean the antique velvet, and a day before I was due to give up entirely on this piece of furniture, my mother and I happened upon Cathy's shop! It must have been fate, because we met Cynthia first, and later Cathy as well. I showed them a picture of my beloved but likely ruined piece of victorian furniture, and the next thing I knew, we were looking at fabric swatches to reupholster it! Long story short, not only did they rush the job for me, so that it was miraculously done ahead of Thanksgiving and in time to make the move into the new house with us, but to top it off, the job they did on it FAR exceeded my expectations and greatest hopes! It is GORGEOUS! I really appreciated their attention to detail, their amazing communication, and the fact that they were able to help me find a close match to the original color of the antique velvet. I am beyond excited and SO grateful. It was a joy to work with them, and I am anxious to do it again one day! They truly brought an old piece of furniture back to life. I should also quickly mention that I also bought and reupholstered 2 chairs from them while we were there as well, which now coordinate perfectly with the settee as well--and I'm equally as amazed and thrilled with how they turned out too. I HIGHLY recommend Cathy Mares Custom Sewing!"
