We stopped by just before a holiday weekend (from Syracuse) asking for our awning (made by another maker) to restitch the whole thing, which was coming undone within two years. They not only obliged they made an effort to open their shop for us to pick up on Saturday morning. They surpassed any expectations I had. Thank-You so very much. Betty McNulty

They helped me solve a problem with my new work truck. Sandy designed a few canvases to cover my truck and keep snow from filling a few boxes I made for hand tools. Really a reasonable price for what they did. Thanks guys, I'll definitely be coming back for something!

I highly recommend Sterling Tents. I used them three times for a tent and chairs for a graduation party and they were reasonably priced, easy to work with, extremely friendly and professional. I have also dealt with them twice for U-Haul rental and had the same experience. I will definitely use them every time.

Sterling made a custom boat cover for a 19' modified deck boat. Very nice job, so nice that since this one is worn out I am getting a new one. They did a good job last time and I expect they will again. Didn't take long and they stand behind their work.
