What our customers wrote on Google

“So we bought The Cloud Sofa from Restoration Hardware and honestly I wasnt sure it was going to fit in our elevator in the uoper west side. i searched online for Sofa Disassembly/Doctors but didn’t like the fact that It would be done outside or in the lobby. í didn’t want the fabric getting dirty, as well as the blankets used to be the ones used over snd over again. I found Sofa Era who offered their Workshop Fit! exactly what I needed, They picked it up from RH, dissassembled it indoor and brought it into my apartment with no issue getting it in. i appreciated that they call and plan ahead how to get it in, so I was well informed throughout the process as this was all new to me! I felt confident trusting them as I saw they worked with many Furniture companies throughout new york and were craftsman of their trade. Julian was attentive to all my questions and always communicative. Thank you Sofa Era Again, My sofa looks fantastic in my home and you saved me headaches and worries.”

Maria GomezGoogle review

“Sofa Era NYC is an exceptional sofa disassembly, reassembly and repair company. They received the sofa, disassembled, reassembled as well as repaired damage caused by the warehouse delivery service perfectly. The customer service provided by Julian is excellent: responsive, knowledgable, honest, timely, and attentive. I highly recommend Sofa Era NYC.”

Jamie LeveyGoogle review

“I had a sofa yesterday that the delivery guys could not bring up to my second floor apartment it was to big for the narrow staircase . I was ready to get a refund and settle for a different couch. I searched up “disassemble and re assemble furniture” on google and SOFA ERA popped up. I gave them a call and this is at around 5pm. Julian picked up told me to send him pictures of the couch and told me he could be here the very next day! I had the delivery guys drop off the couch set the next day and Julian and his father came over. I was still doubtful that it could be done but once I saw the confidence in his father I felt at ease. As soon as the father got to work his years of experience really showed. The father son duo was fast and efficient! I’m telling you guys if you have a similar problem call Sofa era and stay relaxed they will get the job done.”

“Our experience was amazing. We were having issues with getting our coach out.of the apartment. They work diligently for a while, tried mutliple techniques and were able to get it out; something our original movers were not able to do. Professional, would definitely use them again!”

Ivonne Nunez-RosarioGoogle review

“They do amazing couch doctor work even in complicated cases - my huge sleeper sofa looks like it was never taken apart. Really friendly and the price is fair too.”

Sarah TritzGoogle review

“Best experience I've had working with someone. Seamless through and through. Excellent communication, upfront and honest, and absolute professional service. They were able to move our furniture with no issues including our oversized sofa. They went above and beyond ensuring no furniture was unnecessarily disassembled and indeed managed to keep our brand new couch intact when numerous other companies had told us it was not possible. They are very experienced and it shows. And on top of everything they also offered some of the most competitive pricing, which is amazing considering the quality of service and how quickly they showed up after we contacted them. I cannot recommend Sofa Era enough. Exceptional all around!”

Harry NicolaouGoogle review

“Julian and his team were absolutely fantastic. From start to finish, they were professional, careful, and clearly took real pride in their work, you could tell they genuinely cared about making sure nothing got damaged. They carried everything up four flights of stairs without a single scratch on the walls or the furniture, which is no small feat.

They assembled my RH Cloud sofa, Noguchi coffee table, and Saarinen marble table with real precision, and even went above and beyond to help store the rest of my items in another storage unit. Great attitudes the whole time, super easy to work with, and I never once worried about my things being in good hands.

Highly recommend. I'll absolutely be using them again for any future moves!”

It started with Julian's father, Doc Juan, the independent contractor NYC furniture stores called for deliveries, disassembly and removals. The stores still call.

“New Yorkers call us couch doctors. My father became the stores' go-to when sofas wouldn't fit. The work is what we call sofa surgery, so they started calling him the doctor. He's been Doc Juan for more than 30 years.” — Julian Iragorri, owner

Questions

Often, yes. To get the back or the base off, we usually cut the wood frame. We put the joint back together with wood, steel plates or both, screwed across the cut, so it holds as strong as before, or stronger. Then we reattach the upholstery the way it was.

The On-the-Spot Fit starts at $275, and each extra sectional piece is $175. The Workshop Fit is double the On-the-Spot sofa price; stairs and tolls are added once. The AI Quote Tool shows your range first.
