Has anyone had experience with Riverside Boat Upholstery? I am thinking of using them for my interior. Thoughts?
Sorry never heard of them, TTT.Has anyone had experience with Riverside Boat Upholstery? I am thinking of using them for my interior. Thoughts?

Made the appointment. I'll keep y'all posted on the work.
I would like to know as well. I talked to Eddie at Martinez but I know they are always busy so getting a quote hasn't been easy. I think @02HoWaRd26 sent me pics of a buddy of his Daytona that got stolen and gutted. If this is the same Rene that did the work, the work was flawless. But then again, guys name could have been Raul. I forget.
Yes.Is he on Rutland Ave in Riverside?
I hope it's not the same Raul @A-1 from Fullerton cuz they love drywall screws along with the shittest work next to Tajuana that I've ever seen .There is another place near riverside called A-1. Guys name is Raul. We used him before. We were happy with the work. It’s not DCB, but it turned out nice. He is a lot cheaper than most of the other shops.
Was Renee and he truly killed it on Al’s boat as well has done quite a few others I’ve seen. He truly does amazing work.
Good to know. Going to try and call or head down this weekend to get a quote . I tried Martinez again today and no luck. May have to take a ride down there as wel

Ok, little update. So I decided to have Rene reupholster the boat. Drove the boat up there and met Rene and went over the scenario. REALLY nice guy. Does not advertise at all. I looked at some of the work in his shop and was thoroughly impressed. I will show the pictures of the completed work once I get the boat back in a few weeks.
Did his prices seem reasonable? I saw on another thread or on Facebook (cannot recall) that his prices seemed to have "skyrocketed". I haven't gone down to talk to him yet.

He built a new rear hatch for me. New wood, new vinyl, I just dropped the old one off to him and had him copy it. Nothing fancy in stitching, just plain white vinyl. $1200. I wanted to do the wood work myself, but I just couldn't find the time. Told him when I would be back in town from an out of town work assignment, and he emailed me on the day I said I would be back to inform me it was done. I haven't picked it up yet, but I will report back when I do.

Mine took 16 days start to finish. Outstanding!I just had a phone conversation with someone there today. @Tamalewagon how long did they have your boat. Was delivery on time?

How long has he been on his own away from shockwave? Curious if he’s the one who did my Hallett a couple years back at Bobs. If so he did a wonderful job.Ok, little update.

I'm not quite sure about that. Good question for Rene.How long has he been on his own away from shockwave? Curious if he’s the one who did my Hallett a couple years back at Bobs. If so he did a wonderful job.
