The Story & Mission

At Upper Falls Boat Works, craftsmanship isn't a selling point. It's a family tradition.

Upper Falls Boat Works was founded on a simple belief: boat owners deserve better.

 

For 50 years, our family has lived and breathed the marine industry, not just as service providers, but as marina owners, boat enthusiasts, and people who understand what it means to depend on the water. That heritage shapes everything we do.

Our focus is marine canvas, upholstery, and surface protection, work that demands both technical precision and an eye for detail. We communicate clearly, execute carefully, and stand behind every stitch and finish we produce.

As a family-owned and operated business, we've built our reputation the same way any lasting relationship is built: through honesty, consistency, and a genuine passion for the craft. We've seen the industry from every angle, and that perspective has made us better at what we do. When your boat comes into our care, it's not just another job, it's a reflection of the standards we've held ourselves to for half a century.

Made-to-Measure Canvas & Enclosures

Every cover, dodger, bimini, and enclosure is measured and pattern-cut to your exact boat, built in-house from Sunbrella® fabric so the fit is right when it leaves the shop. No generic sizing. No adjustments on the dock.

Tom B.

"Fifty years in the trade shows. They caught things on our enclosure that two other shops had missed. The difference in fit was immediately obvious."

Karen M.

"They've done our canvas twice now and our upholstery once. Every time, pricing is clear upfront, the timeline holds, and the finished work is exactly what we talked about."

"I've used three different shops over the years. Upper Falls is the only one where the work came back exactly as discussed, right fit, right materials, no follow-up calls to sort out problems."
