Reupholstery Recommendations?

We've got a huge couch that's got some tears, is generally showing it's 20-something age, and definitely needs to be reupholstered. It's a huge couch that I don't want to have to transport out of the house. I know that there are services that will come to your house and do all the work right there in your living room. Has anyone used such a reupholstery service (or know of one) that they would recommend? DIY is not an option for us.

We used these guys to disassemble our sofa and get it up the stairs here a few years ago, and they were highly recommended by the local furniture store we bought the sofa from.

I have not used their upholstery service.

Late to the party, but I also had an excellent stairs-induced experience with Melo and Sons's disassembly/reassembly service.

We loved the work they did. The guy came into our home, took measurements, and came back a few weeks later with perfectly-fitting couch and cushion covers. The covers are still doing well two houses later. (This was on a challenging asymmetrical couch, as well.)

I've also had a great experience with Locatelli-Smith, on a slipcover for a couch, including six cushions.

They're very small but they did a very good job for us. Until my dog ruined it.
