Signwriting is well represented on narrowboats and Vimart Signwriting produces stylish and innovative work. Well turned out and eye-catching designs along the waterways exhibit the feeling that you care about your craft. All kinds of boats can have signwriting applied but it is the traditional narrowboat work where signwriting really stands the test of time.
The preparation of hand painted cabin sides or a full boat re-paint is work that Vimart Signwriting is proud of. A good high-class signwritten sign is enhanced by careful surface preparation. Vimart Signwriting, in association with Sally Tooze at Willow Boat Painting will, where necessary, prepare cabin sides to a very high standard, ready to take the kind of traditional work so deserving of this form of transport.
The reputation of Vimart Signwriting which has been built up over many years is synonymous with quality paintwork. WILLOW BOAT PAINTING is now carrying the tradition forward on beautifully finished inland waterway boats throughout England and Wales.
Martyn and Sally have created a strong partnership in WILLOW BOAT PAINTING and benefit from over 35 years of experience in signwriting and coach painting. Between them they are regularly presenting handcrafted, beautifully brush finished boats for you to enjoy.
