Services

Furniture Reupholstery

Services & Process

Marine upholstery work typically involves replacing sun-damaged vinyl seating, rebuilding foam cores that have absorbed moisture, and using UV-resistant, waterproof materials that can handle coastal Georgia's humidity and direct sun. For furniture reupholstery, they apply that same durability-first mindset, selecting materials that hold up over time rather than just looking good at first. Boat cushion replacement often means custom cutting foam to fit irregular shapes in cockpits and cabin berths. Their metalworks background also means they can address hardware and frame issues that a fabric-only shop might turn away.

Service Area

Seastar Marine Metalworks serves Savannah and the broader coastal Georgia boating community, including areas like Thunderbolt, Wilmington Island, and Tybee Island. Boat owners from the South Carolina Lowcountry also make use of their services given the limited number of marine upholstery specialists in the region.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of fabric is best for boat seats in the Savannah area?
Marine-grade vinyl is the most practical choice for coastal Georgia because it resists UV rays, saltwater, and humidity without requiring special care. Solution-dyed acrylic fabrics are another solid option for areas that aren't directly exposed to splashing water.
Can you reupholster boat seats while the boat stays in the water?
In most cases, cushions can be removed and brought in without hauling the entire boat. If the upholstery is fixed or the work involves structural components, the boat may need to be accessible for templating and fitting.
How do I know if my boat cushions need replacement versus repair?
If the foam has taken on water or developed a smell that won't go away, replacement is usually the better call. Minor cracks or small tears in vinyl can often be repaired, but widespread sun damage and crumbling foam mean it's time for new cushions.
Do you work on pontoon boats, fishing boats, and larger cabin cruisers?
Marine upholstery shops typically work across different boat types, from small fishing boats to larger cruisers with cabin interiors. Describing your boat's make, model, and the specific areas needing work when you call helps them give you an accurate estimate.
Can Seastar Marine Metalworks also handle furniture in a boat's cabin interior?
Yes, cabin furniture like settees and berth cushions is exactly the kind of work a marine upholstery specialist handles. These pieces face the same moisture and humidity challenges as exterior seating, so marine-grade materials are just as important inside the cabin.
How long does marine upholstery work typically take?
Simple cushion replacement for a small boat can be turned around in a week or two. Larger projects involving a full cabin interior or a lot of custom templating may take three to four weeks depending on current workload.
