A torn leather seat or a sagging headliner is the kind of damage that makes a decent car feel embarrassing to drive. Auto upholstery repair services in Los Angeles carry a combined 593 Google reviews across the shops on this page, and ratings run from 4.2 up to 4.9, a wider gap than you'd guess from how similar these small, family-run shops sound on paper.

Short answer: Joseph's Upholstery leads with a 4.9 rating across 285 reviews, known for custom furniture and headboard work as well as vehicle interiors. Matus Auto Upholstery (4.9, 61 reviews) and Jorge's Auto and Home Upholstery (4.8, 57 reviews) both post near-identical ratings on smaller review counts, and reviewers repeatedly mention same-day or next-day turnaround across the board.

Our take: Solid for headliner work specifically, which is most of what the reviews describe. The one negative review is worth reading before booking anything involving a sunroof.

How we score these shops

Rating comes straight from live Google averages. Review volume measures how many customers actually left a review, ranked against the others here. Confidence blends the two, so a shop with hundreds of reviews outranks one with a handful even at a similar star rating. Recency checks how current the reviews are. None of these numbers can be bought or adjusted by a business.

What does auto upholstery repair cost in Los Angeles (2026)?

Pricing depends heavily on the job, a single seat repair costs far less than a full headliner replacement or convertible top swap, and material choice (vinyl versus leather versus custom fabric) moves the number further. Several reviewers on this page mention getting multiple quotes before choosing a shop, which is a reasonable approach given how much jobs vary here.

Serving Los Angeles and the Valley

This list spans Downtown LA near Pico Boulevard, Boyle Heights on Soto Street, Valley Glen, Atwater Village, and Culver City, so wherever you’re searching from, an upholstery shop offering auto upholstery repair near me in Los Angeles isn’t far off.

What to ask before you book

  • Can you match my existing fabric or leather, especially on an older interior?
  • What’s the turnaround time for my specific job?
  • Is there a warranty on the stitching or materials?
  • Do you charge for an estimate?
  • Do you work on convertible tops or just seats and headliners?
  • What’s included in the quoted price versus what could add extra cost?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these shops?

We pulled every auto upholstery business in Los Angeles with a real Google presence, then ranked on rating, review volume, and how recently customers were still reviewing them.

Can these shops match old or discontinued fabric?

Several reviewers describe shops here matching decades-old interiors, including one match on a nearly 30-year-old truck interior, though an exact match isn’t guaranteed on every fabric.

Do any of these do home furniture too?

Yes, Joseph’s Upholstery and Jorge’s Auto and Home Upholstery both handle furniture alongside vehicle interiors.

How often is this updated?

We refreshed this list in July 2026 using live Google ratings and review counts, and revisit it as new reviews accumulate.

The bottom line

Joseph’s Upholstery is the safest default given its review volume and rating, but if you’re restoring an older or vintage interior, Matus and Nacho’s both have a specific track record with color-matching and classic work. Get a firm quote before the job starts, since pricing here swings more than the star ratings might suggest.
