Services & Process

Marine upholstery is a core specialty, covering seat cushions, helm chairs, bow seating, and cockpit panels using UV-resistant, waterproof vinyl and marine-grade foam. Boat repair services address structural and cosmetic issues beyond upholstery, making this a fuller service option for watercraft owners who want to restore a vessel rather than piecemeal the repairs. Boat parts and supplies are also available, which means clients can source vinyl, snaps, hardware, and foam in one stop. On the residential side, furniture reupholstery rounds out the offering for homeowners who want the same durable material expertise applied to indoor or outdoor pieces.

Service Area

Clear Marine Vinyl serves Vernon and surrounding Waukesha County communities, with easy access for boat owners throughout the southeastern Wisconsin lake region. They're reachable from communities near Muskego, Big Muskego Lake, and Little Muskego Lake. Call the toll-free number to discuss logistics for larger boat upholstery projects that may require mobile or transport arrangements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does marine upholstery typically include?
Marine upholstery covers the seats, cushions, panels, and any padded surfaces inside or on a boat. Work usually involves removing old vinyl or fabric, replacing marine-grade foam, and applying new UV-resistant material that's sewn and sealed to handle water exposure.
How often should boat seat upholstery be replaced?
With good maintenance and quality materials, marine upholstery can last eight to fifteen years. Sun exposure, improper storage, and low-grade original materials accelerate wear, so boats stored outdoors year-round typically need attention sooner.
What's the difference between marine vinyl and regular upholstery vinyl?
Marine vinyl is treated to resist UV rays, mildew, salt, and moisture in ways that standard vinyl isn't. Using regular vinyl on a boat will result in cracking, fading, and delamination much faster, so it's worth paying for the proper material.
Can boat upholstery shops also work on furniture at home?
Yes, many marine upholstery shops take on residential furniture projects as well, since the core skills and tools overlap significantly. Shops with marine experience often do excellent work on outdoor patio furniture and indoor pieces that need durable, high-performance materials.
Do I need to bring my boat in, or can the shop come to the marina?
It depends on the shop and the scope of work. Some shops offer mobile or on-site service for larger vessels or full cabin refits, while smaller jobs like seat cushion replacement are easier to handle with drop-off. It's best to call and describe the project first.
Where can I buy marine vinyl and upholstery supplies near Vernon, WI?
Clear Marine Vinyl carries marine parts and supplies in addition to offering repair and upholstery services. Calling ahead at (888) 400-8405 will confirm what's in stock and whether they can source specific materials for a DIY or custom project.
