Why
A Full-Service Provider Matters
Owning a boat is an investment. Proper fabric protection and interior care preserve that investment and reduce costly deterioration. Comprehensive services from one trusted provider ensure consistency in design, material usage, and installation. A single-source approach reduces project coordination hassles, ensures compatibility across systems (covers, cushions, enclosures), and simplifies warranty and maintenance schedules.

Detailed Service Categories

From pet covers and kayak covers to unique commercial installations, our custom projects team handles complex requests. We collaborate with designers, boatyards, and homeowners to produce tailor-made solutions that perform.
How We Work
Project Lifecycle
Inquiry and Consultation
Each project begins with a conversation—what do you want to protect, how will it be used, and what is your budget?
Site visit or templating appointment
We either measure precisely or perform templating on-site to capture unique vessel geometry.
Proposal and material selection
A transparent estimate with material recommendations and lead times.
Why
Maintenance Matters
Regular maintenance prevents minor issues—loose hardware, early mildew, salt buildup—from becoming expensive repairs. Our maintenance recommendations include cleaning cycles, UV protectants, and inspection checkpoints for zippers and seams.
FAQs
What is templating and why is it necessary?
Templating captures the exact dimensions and contours of your boat or structure, producing a pattern that ensures excellent fit and reduces wind stress, flapping, and water pooling. It’s crucial for long-lasting covers and enclosures.
How long does a Bimini top replacement take?
Lead times vary with complexity but many Bimini tops are templated and completed within 1–3 weeks. Custom or complex enclosures may take longer.
Do you offer mobile repairs?
Yes. For many repairs and installations we can come to your marina or dock. Call (305) 942-6252 to request mobile service.
Is Strataglass the best option for enclosures?
Strataglass offers clear visibility and is standard for marine enclosures. We discuss thickness, clarity, and framing options to match your needs.
