Custom Canvas of Charleston is an award winning member of the Marine Fabricators Association. We are a true custom shop, located in Charleston,S.C.. We fabricate custom boat covers, enclosures, dodgers, biminis, cushions and just about anything that has material on a boat except a sail. We do make sail covers, just not the sails. We even make our own stainless steel frames so that we know the foundation of your canvas is correct before we even start.
We make custom furniture cushions, specializing in exterior cushions made of SUNBRELLA material and E Z Dri foam. We make pet beds and bean bag chairs also made of Sunbrella. If you can imagine it, we can sew it. We've made motorcycle covers and motorcycle seats. We do truck tarps, both solid vinyl and mesh. We've made indoor play areas for children ( you know, the kind that you must remove your shoes before you go in). We've also made black out shades and sleeping berth curtains for the Coast Guard. We can cover all types and sizes of machinery.
We pride ourselves in making a quality product at a fair price. Check out the following pages and see if there is anything that might interest you. If so, give us a call. If you don't see what you are looking for, but have an idea for something that you have never seen done before, that's the kind of challenge we enjoy. E-mail us with the details.

PROJECT OF THE MONTH
It took a long time planning this project. Our client was restoring a 28 Bertram from the ground up. The boat was stripped to a bare hull, then refitted with a rebuilt engine, new electronics, an aluminum superstructure and a fiberglass hardtop. The easy part of this job was the enclosure. Our client insisted upon a Barrett Bonded Window enclosure, and after seeing the results, you must agree that he was right. It took a little engineering to enable all three windows to flip up at the same time, especially since they are approx 60 inches high. Snow white Stamoid material and Tenara thread complete the image he wanted.

These clients were new to the Lowcountry, and wanted to get their new boat set up correctly the first time. We started from scratch, new dodger, connector and bimini. The clear vinyl was of .40 ga. Strataglass and everything was held together with Tenara thread. We fabricated all of the frames out of 1" stainless tubing w/ stainless fittings. The bimini was the hardest frame we have made, notice the way the aft bow is narrower than the next 2. We had such fun doing the bimini frame that we did it twice, but that's a story for Charlie to tell. Make sure Sharon is there when he's telling it ! Great people to work with.
...and taking it to the next level
