6 kinds of marine work.
Salon to sundeck, in materials that survive a Lowcountry summer on the water.
01Salon & cabin
Sofas, settees and berths rebuilt in Grade-A marine vinyl that takes Lowcountry sun and salt without cracking.
02Helm & cockpit
Helm chairs, cockpit lounges and bolsters templated where the boat sits, so the fit is right the first time.
03Sundeck & exterior
Sunpads, bow cushions and cockpit sets in quick-dry foam and marine cover, built for wet and sun.
04Bimini & canvas
Bimini tops, boat covers and enclosure panels stitched in Sunbrella and marine thread.
05Vinyl repair
Cracked seams, worn panels and UV damage patched or replaced, so you spend on the section that failed.
06Dockside service
Templating and fitting at the City Marina, Shem Creek and Isle of Palms. No trailering, no hauling out.
Dockside, no trailering
We work at the marina.
We come to the boat across Charleston Harbour, the City Marina, Shem Creek and Isle of Palms. Most jobs are templated at the slip and fitted back on the boat, then sewn at the North Charleston workroom in between, so you are not trailering a hull or losing a season to it.

Fitted back on the boat
We fit it back at the slip and check it in place, so the boat stays where it is.

Boat-owner questions
Asked at the dock.
If yours is not here, call the workroom or put it in the estimate form.
Do you come to the boat?
Yes. Templating and fitting happen at the slip, and the sewing is done at the North Charleston workroom. No trailering or hauling out.
Which Charleston marinas do you cover?
Charleston City Marina, Charleston Harbour, Shem Creek and Isle of Palms Marina, plus Mount Pleasant and the sea islands. If your marina is not listed, ask.
What material do you use on marine seating?
Grade-A marine vinyl over quick-dry foam for seating, and Sunbrella for canvas and covers, both built for sun, salt and damp.
Can you repair torn vinyl instead of replacing everything?
Often, yes. Cracked seams and worn panels can be patched or swapped without redoing the whole set.
How long does a marine job take?
Most jobs run 1 to 2 weeks once material lands, longer in busy season. We template first so the boat is only out of use for the fitting.
