Alex was referred by a local boat builder Kenny and a good friend Osmonny who happens to be a neighbor 2 houses down. Very friendly family man who has a son and another assistant helping with the small home business.
Renaissance has a reputation of being very very good but not very fast. In my situation I put my order in very early and was happy with the quality of the materials and strength of the product I previously used sunbrella and the original top lasted close to 20 years in full sun exposure and 6 or more hurricanes without tearing , just a little fading. I was happy he was able to find a slightly darker version, as some fading is expected. I also needed a seat cushion back to be completely rebuilt. They did a good job with adding ventilation and a zipper. I picked it and when it came to installing the two part top was off sized by a few inches one piece was too long and the other piece was to short. Alex reassured me that he will fix it or if he has to make it over he would. He prefaced it with he was busy so I'm guessing he will check it over whenever he gets free. Alex eventually came after many calls he reassured me that the small pieces will stretch enough. So time will tell. I believe the original canvas probably shrank as soon as I took the tension off the frame. So the new top was made off a smaller original. Eventually it stretched and I put a good amount of tension on while lacing the top. Over a few trials. For a two piece top and a cushion expect to pay around 1000-1400.
