Houseboat Trimming & Covers
Houseboats need to feel like home on the water — we craft covers, upholstery and trim that make life aboard comfortable and lasting.
Winning Trimming has been crafting covers, upholstery and trim for houseboat owners across Lake Macquarie, Newcastle, the Central Coast and the Hunter Valley Houseboats need to feel like home on the water — and we build covers, seating, cushions and interior trim that make life aboard comfortable and lasting.
Our houseboat services include custom weather covers, bimini tops, seat upholstery, cushions, mattresses, interior panels, carpet and hull lining. Whether you need a new bimini for the top deck, replacement cushions for the saloon, custom mattresses for awkward berths, or a full interior refit, every job is patterned and stitched to suit your houseboat.
We use premium marine fabrics and materials including Sunbrella, WeatherMAX, marine-grade vinyls, foams and carpets — all chosen for UV resistance, water repellency and comfort. All stitching uses UV-stable marine thread and fittings are corrosion-resistant.
From our workshop at Toronto on Lake Macquarie, we service houseboat owners throughout the region. We can come to your mooring or marina for measuring and fitting, or you can bring the boat to us. Full repair and re-stitching services are also available for existing covers and upholstery.
Call 1300 799 882 to discuss your houseboat trimming and upholstery needs.
William Manning
Excellent service and quality of workmanship. Rick & James have delivered two sets of covers for me to date. I have dealt with numerous others trimmers over the years and these guys are the best!
John Weate
I used Winning Trimming to recover the cushions in the saloon of my Bavaria 38. It was a tricky job with some nooks and angles to deal with. They did a great job. They had to match the fabric, which they did perfectly. I was on a tight time frame which they also met with no problem. I highly recommend them.’ John Weate Islington NSW
