Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Marine upholstery work involves UV-resistant vinyl and marine-grade fabrics that can hold up to sun, water, salt spray, and constant outdoor exposure. Seats, cushions, and console covers on boats all degrade faster than indoor furniture, and replacing them restores both function and resale value. On the residential side, the shop handles standard furniture reupholstery including sofas, chairs, and cushions. The crossover skill set between marine and furniture work means this shop understands materials at a technical level that generalists may not match.

Service Area

Eastside Marine & Upholstery serves customers throughout Orlando and the surrounding Central Florida region. Boat owners from areas near the St. Johns River corridor, East Orange County, and communities like Bithlo, Christmas, and Titusville road-trip their boats and vehicles to this shop for specialized work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials are used for marine upholstery in Florida?
Marine-grade vinyl is the standard for Florida boat upholstery because it resists UV fading, mold, and moisture far better than standard fabric. Top-tier marine vinyl products include UV inhibitors built into the material, which dramatically extends the life of seats in direct sun.
How often should boat seats be replaced in Florida's climate?
With heavy use and year-round sun exposure, boat seat vinyl can start cracking or fading within five to ten years. Keeping cushions out of the sun when the boat is docked and using UV protectant spray can extend their life significantly.
Can this shop handle both my boat and my living room furniture?
A shop like Eastside Marine & Upholstery, with marine and furniture categories, is set up to handle both. It's convenient if you want to drop off a boat and a sofa at the same time, though you should confirm the shop is taking both types of work before making the trip.
Do I need to bring the whole boat in, or just the cushions?
For most seat and cushion work, you can remove the upholstered pieces and bring just those in, which is easier than trailering the whole boat. If the work involves attached or structural components, the upholsterer may need access to the boat itself.
Can old cracked vinyl boat seats be repaired rather than replaced?
Minor cracks can sometimes be addressed with vinyl repair kits, but deep cracking or peeling usually means the material has failed structurally. A professional upholsterer will give you an honest assessment of whether repair or full replacement makes more sense for your boat's age and condition.
What's the typical cost to reupholster boat seats in the Orlando area?
A simple set of fishing boat seats might run a few hundred dollars, while a pontoon with multiple lounge sections could be $1,000 or more depending on the amount of material and labor involved. Getting an in-person or photo-based quote gives you the most accurate number before committing.
