Canvasman Reviews 74

Needed a repair to panel on gazebo Canvasman made for us about 8yrs ago.
Sent it Monday had it back by Friday same week. Whole process very professional and helpful from start to finish.

The Canvasman team are professionals who from start to finish take time to ensure the customer expectations are met. They have created and installed a bow cover that should last for many years and has added value and protection for our narrowboat.

I have ordered several boat canvasses in the past, including tonneau covers, bimini tops and full hoods, but always for boats that I had previously on the Solent. So when I commissioned a boat builder in the North to build a new vessel, I needed a new canvas maker and asked for their advice, whereupon they recommended Canvasman.
From the very first phone call, it was clear they have a masterful grasp of their craft and were confident enough to give me a ball park figure for what I was asking for - which is quite important for budgetary purposes in an overall project the size of the one I was undertaking.
They sent canvas swatches for me to review and arranged for a guy to measure the boat.
I met him on site and he was absolutely meticulous in the detail that he took and the questions he asked - thus, I was completely unsurprised at the quality at 3D imagery that followed.
I also asked for quite an ambitious time schedule especially given the time of year.
You will notice my review is dated towards the end of April and anybody involved in the sailing community will tell you this is widely regarded as being in the window which we often think of as the start of the season thus creating huge demand on suppliers of anything nautical at that time!
However the entire team were seemingly unphased by my request (no doubt well used to the demands of dis-organised sailors!)
However they did indeed hit the schedule to the day and delivered a product which is absolutely fabulous!
Further, not only did I order my hood at that time, a few days later, I also requested that they make my upholstery and, as you will have guessed by now, they delivered that on the same day that they fitted the cover!
I can't recommend these guys highly enough and anybody seeking new or replacement canvas should give these guys a call if only to set the bar that others must exceed - because very few will.

Canvas Man…the all-round professional quality canvas provider,
I needed a new canopy for my boat with new additional supporting framework,
Therefore not a straightforward one canopy replacing an existing one,
However despite any perceived complications I may of anticipated,
I found the whole process from beginning to the final-canopy installation being carried out at a professional level removing any perceived concerns,
From getting an extremely competitive price for the work,
I found the 3D images very helpful, giving a accurate visualisation of the end product,
Throughout the fitting process the engineer was very meticulous with attention to detail resulting in an excellent finish,
Overall an excellent quality product supported at each stage by friendly and helpful admin staff,
A great friendly and effective service at all levels from the initial concept and design to fitting and implementation all brought together in a professional and cost effective way, Definitely highly recommended…..

I can highly recommend Canvas man. They were easy and professional to deal with. They were able to design, supply and fit my bespoke outdoor seating covers in a short time frame. They had a huge range of Canvases to choose from and I am really happy with the result. Kathy (Wimbledon)

Wow, what a service. From initial measuring to design, manufacture and fitting, the service was superb. The guys are very knowledgeable in their field and very friendly to boot. Had new covers made for my boat and the finished product surpassed my expectations. I cannot recommend this company enough. Thank you all.

I wanted to get a retractable shade for my new pergola. After trying a number of suppliers without success I found Canvasman who designed built and installed exactly what I was looking for. Their service was excellent from initial site visit through to installation. It was a unique design and they did a great job.
If you want something special they can really deliver.

I found Canvasman online, and asked them to quote for renewing my outside furniture cushions, having completely failed to find any other companies offereing a similar service.
We conducted all our communication either online or via messaging and phone calls, and they suggested that I measure up the cushions to avoid a costly site visit as they are based in the north.
The process was fairly long, but very efficient, and I now have my new cushions in situ, and I am delighted with the result
I thoroughly recommend both the team and the process.

Had a cratch cover fitted on our boat from build, poor quality and not fit for purpose. Decided to replace the cover and have a pram cover made. Looked at the rest and went to the best!! From start to finish a great experience from a visit to the factory to fitting the final products. Great bunch of people, friendly, informative and professional. Good quality material and fittings that have been in constant use for 3 years. Customer service has been exceptional throughout. Alison, Eren and Johno provided great after sales. (Eren and Johno like cheese sandwiches and biscuits). Will continue to use canvasman in the future and can't recommend them highly enough.

This has been one of the best customer services I have experienced.This is because of a very poor service from other like manufacturers that state all their abilities and service , and when faced with something,’a little bit different’ simply ran away even when furnished with clear information and my commitment to ensure they get it right.
Canvasman were ahead of me from the start, giving great advise and confidently understanding my project needs.
Having looked again at their Website I can testify as being wholly true in my experience.
5 out of 5 stars just ain’t enough.

Canvasman was the only company willing to take on my bespoke canopy. I was nervous but on seeing the 3D drawings I knew I was in good hands. My canopy was ready and installed before the scheduled date. From order to installation it was superb service all the way. Highly recommend the company. Thanks to the Canvasman team for a job well done.

I have just had my narrowboat fitted with a bow cover and a cruiser stern hood. The design, manufacture and fitting was carried out by Canvasman and right from the initial survey/measure (which took 6 hours), the management of my order has been extremely professional. During the design stage I was in regular contact with the Canvasman team allowing me to have my own specific, non-standard features built into the cover and hood. Pre-production plans and drawings were emailed to me for my approval and hence the final items were exactly what I wanted. The two day fitting operation was carried out by the very experienced Eren who proved himself to be an expert craftsman. My boat has been transformed by the addition of the new bow cover and stern hood and is now a real head turner. I would not hesitate to recommend Canvasman to anyone looking for a quality product and service.

I have been thrilled with Canvasman who have provided two new and outstanding canvas covers for our canal boat. From start to finish they were efficient, patient and adaptable. They kept in touch with me and even fitted the covers earlier than promised. I heartily recommend the company and the lovely people who work there! Wendy

Canvasman has just completed a bespoke Gazebo cover for me . They designed and measured and installed saving me a lot of headache . The end result is marvellous, I couldn’t recommend this amiable, hard working talented team enough .

Really professional, thorough and exacting service standards from start to finish. Great stuff guys!

My dealing with canvasman has been exemplary..i had two hoods for storage put on either end of my butty boat..this dosent happen overnight..i booked myself in and after several weeks the measurements were taen and i chose my colour..blue of course..then i recieved cad drawings which were literally what got fitted..the boys who fit the were a hardy pair working in the cold and rain..i must say the finished job was a thing of beauty and the design spec was breathtaking..i almost wish i could do it all again..fantastic company..worth every penny..canvasman could be a superhero for people who brave the elements living on water..thankyou..immensley happy

From start to finish Canvasman have been friendly,efficient,professional and patient!The quality of the covers produced for my boat is amazing.Very pleased with service.

Nothing was too much trouble from start to finish of our gazebo side panels. We were given help and advice throughout the process and we are highly delighted with the finished product.
Many thanks to the whole team at Canvasman. 😊

In these modern times you do not often come across a company like this. Every bit of the purchasing process was first class. Everyone I dealt with from sales, technical and accounts were so professional and could not do enough to help. The 4 Gazebo panels (all different) fitted perfectly and they look great I would recommend them with no hezatation. The delivery was exactly as they said in fact a week early. All in all a great service from an exceptional company!!

Absolutely wonderful service from our design to the finished product. Everyone involved was very helpful, friendly and always kept us up to date with progress. Would highly recommend Canvasman and will definitely use them again for any future projects
