Two boats on my pontoon have had work done by others and they turned out cr*p. Both then went to Josh. The one which has been fitted looks great. The other has yet to be done. Every bit of work he has done for me and friends has been spot on. I also recently had some work done by Marcus at Bristol sails, a very good job too. I believe Josh learnt his trade working for Marcus. Neither of them are cheap but "you get what you pay for".
I had a sacrificial strip done by A and N sails, it ripped in the first bit of good wind and needed to be completely restitched. It is the only one I've seen which was not zigzag stitched.
I had a quote for a frame on my boat for £600 from a guy who lives on a boat in Swansea. I then found I could do it for £200 using a guy from Devon who works in 316 for the pharmaceutical industry. You would have to source the fittings etc.

Fittings (and cloth to make your own) available from:-
http://www.profabrics.co.uk/snap_product_search.php?search=true&category=Boat Stuff
Select 'Boat Stuff>>>Canopy Fittings' in the catorgory box and click search.
I've just replaced the window material and some broken fittings on my spray hood myself.
