Comfortable seats are in!
Sometimes seats arent made for comfort but for looks.
Recently I have had a lot of reworking of seats, from a Transam, to motororbikes to ride on mowers. I am able to work with the customer to meet their personal preferences. Like a mattress, theres several options of foam available for any and every firmness.

Let's talk about it
Hi, I'm Steve
A lot of you will know me from working for Neil Sloan in Waipukurau.
What you probably don't know is I completed my motor trimming apprenticeship in 1985 with Len Shailer Ltd in Palmerston North and have worked for Paul Yerex in Rotorua & Beacham Jaguar in Havelock North. In 2003 on a whim I saw an advert for an exciting new opportunity to work for one of the most iconic and best names in the region. My family and I moved to Waipukurau to work with Neil at Sloans Saddlery. 20 years later, I almost consider myself to be a local.
Throughout my almost 40 years in the trade, I have mastered
- Motor Trimming
- Furniture Upholstery
- Canvas work
- Shade sails
- Farm and Boat
- Leather work and smallgoods
- Squabs and Caravan fitting
- Carpet overlocking
Just to name a few.
Now, my own boss I look forward to continuing to help you out.
I am always on the look out for unusual pieces of furniture in need of some TLC. I'm a bit of a one man repair shop. I encourage you to come see me if you have something thats been hidden away.
What I Can do
Furniture Upholstery
Have a sentimental family piece in need of some TLC?
Cushioning collapsed in your favourite chair?
Not only can I recover, but I can replace or repair springs
and foam cushioning to breathe new life into any and all
furniture.
These Beautiful dining chairs are covered with "Parrots of Brazil" by Malcolm fabrics. Linda knew the exact fabric she wanted and so we made it work.
Auto Upholstery
From full motor trimming restorations to renewing/repairing farm vehicles. Seat restoration, headlinings, door panels, covertibles, campervans, floor mats etc, there is nothing in a vehicle I cant do.
Canvas and PVC Work
Need something durable, that can live its whole life outside without needing to be replaced every 12 months? I can design and fit it. Truck tarps, equipment covers eg sheep scales, spray units. Helicopter monsoon buckets

"No one likes sand in their burger!🍔 Steve from CHB Upholstery & Canvas Ltd has looked after us and made a flash cover for our bbq.
This will help protect it from the salt water and keep that sand out of your snags 🌭🤦
