Cover Repairs - Poole

Hi,

I was dragging my summer cover out of my garage to fold it up and it got caught on the metal strip by the up and over door. So I now have 2" x 2" L shaped rip in it. I need to get it repaired and get a couple of alteration done.

I have used Flexicovers in the past but they can be pricey. Does anyone know any decent alternatives in the Poole area?

Cheers,

Oscar

I used the guy up at Davis boat yard to make light covers..mainly as the boat was there anyway and it was closer than driving to Lymington.

Apart from that Sanders in Lymington fixed the covers for the old boat...top work by both.

I can dig out numbers if you like?

Hi, have just had a job done by Quay Sails which they did fine. They've been around many years.

Quay Sails (Poole) Ltd - Homepage

Have also used Flexicovers and they always do a good job. You could also try these guys Boat Covers & Canopys, Tarpaulins & Marquees, Sealine Covers who I see around the yard quite a lot

Regards, Paul

I've also used the guy at Davis's boat yard to repair a badly ripped tonneau cover and he did a good job, was cheap quick and helpful too.
