About us

Meet Vitor & Fabi

The owners behind every job. Professional equipment, careful hands and a real guarantee.

We're a husband-and-wife team based in Honolulu. Like Day One is named after the feeling we want you to have when we pack up: your sofa, your rug, your carpet — like day one.

Why we started

Before Like Day One, we kept hearing the same stories from friends in Kakaako and Kailua: a crew showed up late, the price doubled at the door, and the sofa was still damp two days later. Nobody explained what they were doing or why.

We thought upholstery deserved better — especially here, where humidity, salt air and sand make fabric work harder than anywhere on the mainland. So we trained on fabric types and cleaning codes, invested in professional extraction and drying equipment, and built the business around three promises: test first, price first, show the proof.

Who you'll meet

Vitor runs the equipment and the tough jobs: pet urine, old sectionals, the rug nobody else would touch. Fabi handles fabric assessment, protection and every conversation about what's realistic. On most jobs, you'll meet both of us.

We're not a franchise and we don't subcontract. When you call, one of us answers. When something isn't right, one of us fixes it.

How we work

Four promises on every job

01

We test first

Every fabric gets a hidden-spot test and a cleaning-code check before any product touches it.

02

We say the price first

Flat quote from a photo, confirmed at the door before we start. The quote is the invoice.

03

We show the proof

Clear tank, drop test, before-and-after photos. You don't have to take our word for it.

04

We come back

If a spot reappears within 7 days, we return and re-treat it free. Protection has a 12-month touch-up guarantee.

The shirt says it: bring the feeling back.

That's the whole job. Your sofa, your rug, your carpet — the way it felt on day one. We film our work, we leave a thank-you card, and we're one text away if anything isn't right.
