About Us
In 1976, when Charman Motor Trimmers & Upholsterers Ltd was established as a locally-owned and operated family business, Kimber Buglass joined as a young apprentice motor trimmer and upholsterer.
Today, he and his wife Jocelyn own and manage the company, where they continue the highly valued tradition of skilled craftsmanship and excellent customer service. Surprisingly, technology in motor trimming and upholstery has not changed markedly over 48 years, so professional pride and attention to detail are never compromised for fast service.
The team is encouraged to be innovative and original in design – a strategy which has paid dividends with the range of International Awards and accolades that the team has received over the years, including our contributions to a number of Open Aluminium Boats that have taken out multiple categories at the Hutchwilco New Zealand Boat Show over the last decade.
