Keilman Kustom Canvas 

i have been involved with boats my whole life. My path lead me to spend 25 years in the sheet metal/industrial metal fabrication industry. Over the past 20 years I have purchased 6 or so boats and have restored them. Several never made it to the lake as friends seen them and talked me out of them. The others I used for a while and sold.

The last 10 years I took a liking to industrial sewing machines and have purchased many. This lead me to learn to sew. I would take small repair work on canvases, boat covers and seats. I grew my talents with time and energy. WHen my Sheet Metal career started fading I decided to start my own business. Since I opened I have been steady with work. Learning something new every week. I enjoy when I make a customer happy and many have returned. Also word of mouth has been very good. I plan on expanding my

business into a larger facility to be able to accomodate several boats at one time. This will allow me to provide additionl services such as more custom boat covers, carpet install, and wood rot repair. This will also allow me to hire additional personal.

 The last 2 years have been busy working 6 days a week or more from April thru November. I have been involved in many diverse project such as trailer covers, pool covers, sand pit covers, awnings,custom BBQ trailer canvas, Rv and sailboat cushions and much more. I expect 2016 to be a banner year as I am openinga 2,500 Sf Facility to expand my capabilities.
