Hi - we are new to this website and are very excited about getting the referral for it.  We have a 15 year old Newell which needs some sprucing up.  We checked with the factory on carpeting but the price is much higher than we want to pay. Also, we want to do some upholstery on the backs of some of the seats, have a fitted spread made as well as a cover around the bedroom ceiling fan.  Does anyone have any recommendations for carpeting and upholstery that is reasonably priced?  Of course, we can travel to the location so we are open to all areas.  Thanks I much!  Mark&Deb

Hi Mark,

welcome to the site!

I am assuming you have a two slide coach from the age. Then upholstery is nothing special. Any auto or home shop can handle the labor, just find the material you want. The carpet is another story because of the flat floor slide. I am in the middle do putting hard surface in my 99, and I can say ther is a lot going on with the carpet and the slide mechanism that is not evident on the surface. I would interview any carpet installer carefully for their experience with HWH flat floor slides before starting. Not trying to scare you, just making you aware.

Sorry Ernie.

another thumbs up for Ernie

While I have not personally had any work done with him YET; I hear nothing but good things from those that have.

He is just outside Ft Worth, TX

Yep. There is a reason Ernie is heavily booked up - quality of work. He did my floors - superb. Check and see if he can squeeze you in his schedule.

Ernie is in Weatherford TX, just west of Ft Worth.
