How Our Quotations Work

​

At Luke Archer Marine, we believe in transparency and making the process as simple as possible. Our goal is to give you an accurate, detailed quote for your bespoke marine canopy, upholstery or soft furnishings without any hidden surprises.
 

1. Initial Consultation
We start by discussing your project. You can visit our Kent workshop, or we can chat remotely. During this stage, we’ll talk about:
 

• The type of work you need (canopies, cushions, curtains, upholstery, etc.)

• Materials, colours, and finishes

• Your timeline and budget
   

2. Measurements & Details
For a precise quote, we need accurate measurements. We can either guide you through taking them yourself or arrange a visit to your boat. We’ll also confirm any special requirements, such as waterproof fabrics, custom stitching, or specific hardware.
 

3. Tailored Quotation
Once we have all the details, we’ll provide a written quotation that includes:
 

• Description of the materials that will be used

• Estimated timeline for completion

• Any optional extras or alternatives
   

4. Review & Approval
You’ll have the opportunity to review the quote, ask questions, and make adjustments. Only when you’re completely happy will we move forward.
 

5. Confirmation & Schedule
After approval, we’ll confirm the start date and keep you updated throughout the project. Our goal is to make the process smooth, collaborative, and transparent from start to finish.

Why Our Process Works
 

• No hidden costs – you see exactly what you’re paying for

• Expert guidance ensures the right materials and design choices

• Tailored to your boat and your vision
