What our Clients have been saying about us:

"We asked Cavalier to help us with a canvas refit on our sailboat. The level of detail and the fit is incredible, it is so much more functional than our old enclosure... We LOVE our new canvas, thank you so much!" Mark & Amy J. Norfolk, VA

•

"My wife and I wanted to thank you for your first class service! Your prompt response to our call for help was beyond our expectations, as was the quality of work performed. Your eye for detail and innovation has us passing your business cards out to boaters around us who (like us) need a specialist who, unlike others, provide a concierge like experience" Jon D. Hampton, VA

•

"Chris was so responsive, he was able to get our repairs in while we were passing through Hampton. When we are ready to replace our canvas, we will be scheduling a stop, his work is worth the trip." Alex & Stacia K. Annapolis, MD

•

"We asked Chris to come up with a custom solution for our aft deck so we can enjoy lounging there during sunset or while drinking a cup of coffee at sunrise, while the sun is low in the sky. He came back with an excellent and flexible solution that perfectly meets our needs. The material used is strong and it was built and installed very professionally. We have his number stored for any future canvas work!" - Harry & Kathy C. Hampton, VA
