How it works

From first visit to fitted, fixed-price, no surprises.

01

Free marine assessment

Most jobs are measured and patterned right here at our Levin workshop — trailer boats, launches and yachts. We'll come to you if it can't travel.

02

Fixed-price quote

We recommend the right fabric for your use and mooring, then quote fixed-price.

03

Deposit confirms it

A deposit locks in materials and your build slot.

04

Patterned & made in Levin

Your cover, bimini or squab is cut and sewn to the boat's exact pattern.

05

Fitted to your boat

We fit the finished piece and check it on the vessel.

Why Canvasland

Marine canvas is where canvas craft really earns its keep, and we've done it for decades. Every cover, bimini and squab is patterned to the specific boat, from marine-grade fabrics, thread and hardware chosen to handle salt, UV and constant flexing. Tight, tailored, and reinforced where it matters.

01

Patterned to your boat

Measured to your exact boat for a proper, water-shedding fit.

02

Marine-grade throughout

Fabric, UV-stable thread, stainless and marine fittings that don't corrode.

03

Local craft, local repairs

Made and serviced in Levin.

Frequently asked questions

Do you make covers for my boat?

If it floats, we can pattern canvas for it — trailer boats, launches and yachts.

What makes it "marine-grade"?

Salt- and UV-resistant fabrics, UV-stable thread, and stainless/marine fittings that won't corrode or rot.

Can you replace my clears?

Yes — new marine clear PVC screens and enclosures.

Do you re-cover squabs and seating?

Yes — marine foam and vinyl upholstery, mildew-resistant.

Can you repair rather than replace?

Often — bring it in and we'll assess re-stitching vs. re-make.

How long will it take / cost?

We quote fixed-price after assessing your boat, in our workshop or on-site.
