When it comes to elevating the comfort, style, and performance of your boat, car, RV, or aircraft, few services offer the return on investment that custom upholstery does. At Apogee Upholstery, based in Venice, Florida, we combine high-end materials, expert craftsmanship, and tailored solutions for clients across the Gulf Coast and beyond. Whether you’re preparing for the boating season, restoring a classic Chevrolet, or just wanting new life for your sun-faded cushions — we’ve got you covered.
Why Upholstery Is More Than Just Fabric
Upholstery isn’t just an aesthetic upgrade.

At Apogee Upholstery, we don’t just cover surfaces. We design interiors that withstand heat, humidity, UV exposure, and wear.

🧵 Why Custom Upholstery Makes a Difference
Upholstery is not merely fabric or foam — it’s a combination of craftsmanship, engineering, and design. In Florida, harsh sunlight, high humidity, salty air, and heavy usage make low-quality upholstery a short-lived solution. At Apogee Upholstery, our services are engineered to outperform, with every material chosen to endure the unique demands of Florida living.
We specialize in solutions that go beyond visual appeal. Our upholstery enhances:
Ergonomic support for long drives or extended fishing trips
Weather protection from UV, mildew, and saltwater
Noise insulation for quieter rides and flights
Durability against tears, fading, and heat damage
Our materials include:
Marine-grade vinyls by Morbern™ and Spradling®
Aviation-certified foams and flame-retardant fabrics
Automotive leather and Katzkin® premium kits
Sunbrella® UV-resistant outdoor textiles
Every stitch is carefully executed. Every detail is personalized. Every finish is inspected to meet our gold standard.
