Recommend someone for dodger work in Vancouver area

I want to install a dodger and bimini on my Catalina 42.....can anybody point me to a someone who does good work in the Vancouver/Vancouver Island area?? Vancouver Island is preferred since that is where my boat is moored. Thanks
Randy

Can't help too much with the island area, but in Vancouver there are a couple of guys that do nice work.

"Mastercraft Canvas" - pretty nice work for reasonable bucks.
"Watershed Canvas" - really nice work, good design but pricier and long delivery time possible. We used him and are happy with the result, but getting the job done was a bit painful. What I like, though, is his use of long radius benders to avoid that "square dodger" look.

I am very pleased with the dodger and cockpit enclosure I had made by Roberto and his team at La Fabrica:
