WE'RE NOT A BIG FACTORY. AND THAT'S THE POINT.
When you contact KTL, you're dealing with a small, hands-on owner operated business that takes the time to understand the project before the work begins.
Every boat, vehicle and upholstery project is different.
A boat has its own shape, seating arrangement, windshield, hardware and canvas requirements. A vehicle has its own interior, panels and trim. An older piece of equipment may require a completely different approach from a new one.
We don't believe in forcing every project through the same process.
We look at what you're working with, what you want to accomplish and what makes sense for the finished result.
30+ Years of experience is worth something to our customers.
MOBILE SERVICE
WE GO TO THE BOAT WHEN THE PROJECT MAKES SENSE FOR MOBILE SERVICE.
Getting a boat to a shop isn't always easy.
That's why KTL offers mobile service for certain marine upholstery and canvas projects.
Depending on the job, we can come to your marina, home or storage location for measuring, assessment, repairs or other onsite work.
For larger projects that require the shop, we'll let you know what needs to come to us.

WHY KTL?
KTL isn't just a business name.
KTL stands for Kassandra, Trenton and Logan — our three kids, in that order.
When KTL was started, the name was meant to represent something bigger than just a company. It was a reminder that the business was being built around family, hard work and creating something we could be proud of.
Today, KTL Marine & Auto has grown into an owner-operated upholstery and canvas business serving boat and vehicle owners throughout Southwestern Ontario.
The name stayed. And so did the reason behind it.
A FAMILY NAME. A HANDS-ON BUSINESS.
WORK WE'RE PROUD TO PUT OUR NAME ON.
We also handle RV and motorhome upholstery — seats, dinettes, and full interior re-upholstery.
