Custom fabrication is what we do best! At The Canvas Works, we are very familiar with customizing products and catering to our clients’ specific needs. We have the resources and knowledge to create custom products that are not routine or conventional. If you have a vision for something a little unusual that you want to be fabricated or covered, we are here to help bring your vision to reality. We can design and fabricate to your specifications, bringing our expertise to the table to ensure we meet your needs. We have done interesting projects that include: Pop-top campers, bags for holding doors and folding bikes, boat hammocks, dock trampolines, cooler cushions, sidecar canopies, adjustable kayak and raft seats for physically challenged adventurers….and much more.
Here are a couple of considerations if you are thinking about a custom fabrication:
What material will I use?
Materials are determined by what item you are trying to protect as well as the elements you are protecting it from. We have a host of sample fabrics in our shop and we can help guide you on the best material use.
Will the project require custom installation or hardware?
We are happy to install or consult on projects that require special hardware. The marine industry hardware also works well in your home. There are many ways to attach, mount, install, join or connect your project.
Will I need tailored fitting?
In many cases, we create detailed templates so our final product will fit all your specifications and look sharp. Or we can build covers that are simple in shape and design, which can reduce labor costs.
What will my project cost?
Factors that can affect cost include: Quality and quantity of fabric, design review, travel to the site, sewing labor, fitting, and installation. When possible, we are happy to provide an upfront cost estimate if given details, measurements and/or photos. You are also welcome to stop by the shop and have a free personal consultation.
