“We are thrilled with the bespoke cover Canvasman designed for our bike trailer. From day one we realised that Chris and the team truly cared about the finished result, their attention to detail and quality of craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. The team were easy to contact, responsive, and truly understood our needs. The result is that we have a cover that is not only safe and secure, but it’s easy to use and looks good too. We highly recommend Canvasman for any custom textile projects”

“I’m as delighted and as impressed by Eren’s skill and professionalism as I expected to be, Chris. The quality of the making is a tribute to your team and I’d be grateful for your passing on to all of them my admiration and appreciation. I’ll be showing the result to my son, whose boat will, I’m certain, not require any change to these measurements.

Very best wishes and thanks for completion during what has not been the most ideal weather. I knew that Eren would be here in spite of it and that I could leave him in peace to carry it through.

Impressive indeed!

Cheers!”

“Really great company to deal with. They went out of their way to contact me following an initial enquiry and stayed in regular contact whilst I organised the measurements. Once booked, James was very helpful in finalising the cover design and ensuring everything was correct and accurate. I’m looking forward to receiving the cover next week and have no doubts that it will be top quality”

“The team at canvasman were absolutely fantastic. I went with a cargo bike canopy cover to replace a zipper, they did the repair really fast at a super high standard. I couldn’t recommend them enough”

“May I just say that Slawek is an exceptional professional. I know you know this, but I had an immediate rapport with him and found his whole manner sensitive and understanding, his attention to detail superb and his explanations and presentation of options lucid and succinct. He reassures me that such skills do still exist!

I’ll add my compliments about your office staff who never miss a trick and provide brilliant communication.

I’ve left him to it, secure in the knowledge that he will have left everything shipshape.

Many thanks to him!”

“Canvasman are a fantastic Company to deal with. Their attention to detail is first class. I used the full service that’s measure and install on an outside wood structure. They attended on time and kept you fully updated. They even recommended some slight alteration to improve the overall effect. Fitting personal Eren is a really nice individual. Thank you all”

“We were after someone to make side panels for our gazebo. In order to make sure it was done correctly we wanted someone to measure, make and fit. Canvasman were the only ones who offered everything. Had an initial quote done from photos I sent and rough measurements. They were very good all the way through and kept me well informed. The guy that came out to measure was also the same one who did the fitting. Very professional and gave good advice. Comes with 5 year warranty and should any panel need replacing any time in the future they have everything on file so would be very simple. Great company to deal with. Good quality product. Very pleased”

“From start to finish, the experience we received from Canvasman was superb. A fabulous courtesy phone call, spot on measurements, perfect colour match to our narrowboat and finally an impeccable installation. Thank you so very much. Absolutely thrilled”

“Excellent company! Very professional approach, with a surgically clean workshop, and very keen to give you the service and product you want. I had some bespoke boat cushions made, and from my sketches, they were able to match my existing ones perfectly. Very punctual on timing, and regularly checked with me on any fabrication queries. Minor issue with a strap position (which was probably my fault anyway!), but they immediately resolved by collecting from me and remedied the following day. I have more new cushions and alterations to do, and will have no hesitation in giving them the work. Don’t waste your time trying what may appear to be cheaper companies, go straight to Canvasman”

“What a wonderful group of people who work at Canvasman Limited. We needed a very small repair doing on one of the removable panels of our caravan awning, pretty insignificant really when you look at what this firm actually do. Nothing was too much trouble, they made us feel really welcome and that we were happy with how they were going to do the repair before we left. We were highly satisfied with the repair and would very much recommend them however small or large a job you want done. 100% professionals. Thank you”

Ashley Sellar

“Fantastic Quality Products and Service I spoke to the team at Canvasman about a project I was working on that I needed bespoke canvas sides for. They were simply superb. They talked me through the various options and made suggestions on the design, material and options they could provide. They sent me a budgetary quote (which they stuck to despite me changing a few things) after which they contacted me for photos and exact measurements. They sent out a guide telling me exactly how to measure. Once that was done they provided a draft design, which I made a few amendments to after discussing with the design team. I missed a few manufacturing slots as a result of me missing the timescales they set out but despite this they still expedited the order and got it to me within a couple of weeks. Now the sides are attached they look fantastic and are excellent quality. I couldn’t be happier with the service and final products I received (and, as my wife always tells me, I’m REALLY fussy). Thanks guys, all round brilliant!!!”

“A wonderful company, with the best of the best staff…each and everyone doing everything to give the best possible experience. The quality of the work is incredible….NO…it is not the cheapest… But there is a difference between value and price…. Highly recommended….not least because, what company these days allows you direct access to the owner of the business who always works with you, not against you”

“Just to say thank you so much for my boat canopy on Sea Princes. Wakefield. The workmanship is above 5 stars I want to thank everybody for the professional approach and workmanship. Detailing on fitting. Even though it was the day before the bank holiday the 2 fitters made sure everything was perfect and not rushing of many thanks highly recommended.”

“We had a great friendly and efficient service from beginning to end. Useful videos to ensure measurements are taken correctly – and although we were asked to re-measure several times – it only proved to us how much attention to detail and our project, was being taken by the design team. Our canvas panels are perfect and arrived as expected, I can highly recommend the team at Canvasman.”

“I cannot rate this company highly enough. I ordered a boat cover from them and have been extremely impressed with their efficiency, professionalism, knowledge and friendliness. Their premises, on a new industrial estate, are impressive and filled with state of the art machinery. The boat cover was fitted yesterday, it is a superb product and fits perfectly. I have no hesitation in fully recommending Canvasman.”

“This is the second cover that Canvasman have fitted for me over the last few years, one on my earlier Narrowboat and now my wide beam. From design through to installation they have worked with me to make the project possible.
The first cover looked as new when I sold the Narrowboat four years after fitting, as it did when first fitted. I trust the new one will be just the same”

“I cannot speak highly enough of Canvasman and Chris and his team of experts. Just installed 3 side panels on 1st March 2021 to my existing pergola and the project from start to finish was excellently handled either by phone or e-mail with no hassle whatsoever and my wife and I are absolutely over the moon with excellent finish and workmanship is second to none. I have no hesitation giving Canvasman a 5 star review and would certainly recommend anyone thinking of a similar project or something else, to seriously consider using Canvasman as they are absolutely the company in my opinion”

Canvasman side panel installation

The quality of the screens is first class and we have already managed many hours of enjoyment in our summer house ( in the middle of winter ) where it is sheltering us from wind and rain.
It’s also worth highlighting the fantastic service that we received from you and your great design and admin team.
Chris, your team are a credit to you and truly understand the customer journey.

“Great quality and attention to detail! Chris and his team produced eight bespoke side panels for our veranda. A lot of effort and thought on their part has resulted in panels that fit perfectly and were easy to install. Some real detailed thought has gone into getting them just right. Thanks, would highly recommend.”

Lynn Preston

Fantastic service by professional people. A bespoke canopy for our speedboat that means we can use it in the very unpredictable British weather. High quality material and well finished off. They made us an overall cover too which keeps the boat as good as new out of the water. Would highly recommend this company.

Our Wilson’s narrowboat cratch cover is 13 years old and the stitching has rotted away in many areas. We found Canvasman via the Internet and were amazed to find they were not your typical business providing services to boaters. They were very efficient and well organised, giving us an exact date for the repair work on the cratch cover and completing the work on that date. The quality of the work was excellent and at a fair price. Our cratch cover should now give us several more years before it needs replacing. We cannot recommend Canvasman highly enough.

We wanted canvas panels to enclose an outside veranda – we had a great friendly and efficient service from beginning to end. Useful videos to ensure measurements are taken correctly – and although we were asked to re-measure a number of times – it only proved to us how much attention to detail and attention to our individual project was being taken by the design team. Our canvas panels arrived as expected and are perfect. I can highly recommend the team at Canvasman.

Outstanding service and a perfect product. The team were attentive to details, communicative with updates, and very responsive to queries. If only more companies took a leaf out of Chris and Fran’s book. Thank you.

We received the canvas covers for our garden chairs last week, which look great and fit perfectly!
We were really delighted with the service you all offered from start to finish and the high-quality product you provided.
If you could thank all your staff who were involved in making the whole process so straight forward!

We chose Canvasman to supply a bespoke cover for some industrial equipment at one of our recent projects. From the very start of the project, Chris and his team were engaged and proactive in offering solutions for our various technical challenges. They delivered to a very tight programme timescale on the date promised and the quality of the final product is excellent.
I would not hesitate to use them again on future projects.

What our customers say…
