Upington notes on vehicles, boats & commercial
Bakkies and tractors from the vineyards and raisin farms need tough canvas or vinyl seat covers, and many cars need roof linings replaced because the heat makes the foam backing fail. 4x4s and caravans heading to the Kgalagadi want cushions and seat covers made for dust. Guesthouses along the river ask for patio cushions and dining chairs, and government offices send chairs for repair.
Upholstery work in Upington
Summer heat in Upington does things to upholstery that coastal towns never see. Foam goes brittle in parked cars, vinyl splits on bakkie seats, and leather couches near a north-facing window fade and crack within a few seasons. Along the Orange River, the grape and raisin farms at Kanoneiland, Louisvale, Keimoes and Kakamas send tractor and bakkie seats, stoep benches and farmhouse dining chairs, and 4x4s and caravans heading for the Kgalagadi need seat covers and cushions that can take dust. Paballelo has home upholsterers, and workshops in town do furniture and motor trimming side by side. Upington is a long drive from any metro, so fabric and foam are often ordered and couriered, and a quote may include waiting time.
