 Boat Upholstery
 

M and M Upholstery performs trim work on all boat types and models. For boat work we use only marine grade materials and stainless steel fasteners and staples. Our services include:

Boat upholstery
We repair and/or replace boat seat covers, carpets, hatch covers, side panels, and headliners. We can install factory replacement seat covers from your boat's manufacturer. We can fabricate new boat upholstery from scratch in any pattern, color (or colors), or shape. We can also fabricate new seat bottoms and panels from plastic or marine plywood.

Boat tops
If your bimini top is worn out, or you need a new set of covers for your cockpit, let M and M Upholstery make you replacements that will make your boat look new again.

Boat covers
The boat cover serves a very important purpose: it takes the brunt of the sun and elements in order to protect the boat. Inexpensive boat covers are made of canvas and tend to last one to two years. Often they are baggy. M and M Upholstery makes boat covers that are form-fitted to your boat. Generally, they are made of Sunbrella canvas - the material that lasts longest exposed full-time to the weather. Sunbrella comes in a wide variety of patterns and colors.

How to clean Vinyl Boat Upholstery
To help keep your boat looking great, you mus tclean your vinyl boat upholstery regularly. Vinyl is very porous and collects much of what it comes into contact with. Because boats are exposed to dirty and possibly salty water, your boat's vinyl upholstery can collect stains and debris. Depending on where you store your boat and how often you use it will help determine how often you should clean it. If you use your boat every weekend, you should clean your upholstery at least once a month. If you use your boat twice a month, you should be cleaning the vinyl every six weeks. Storing your boat on the water will require you to clean your boat's vinyl each visit.
