Complete Fiberglass Cloth and Hull Repair
Useful for its resilient qualities, fiberglass is a type of reinforced plastic. Durable and strong, but this material is still vulnerable to damage and disrepair as a result of collisions, dock impacts, and cracks that will only get worse if not addressed in a timely manner.
Our team of technicians use a careful process to repair cracks and fractures in the hull, perform gelcoat repair, osmotic blister repair, and transom and stringer restoration services. We repair the damage and restore with top-quality fiberglass mat and resin, and finally finish the work with gel coat blending that is fully seamless.
Cosmetic and Gelcoat Repair
Your boat is exposed to all kinds of wear and tear that can slowly and significantly lead to damage through sun exposure, oxidation, even those small impacts you may not see but leave behind tiny holes, chips, and cracks. Trying to cover it up with a little paint isn’t the long-term answer.
We can clean up that cosmetic damage with gelcoat crack and chip repair, oxidation removal, surface refinishing and polishing, with the goal of giving your vessel a whole new shine that it’s been missing.
We pay careful attention to start with a clean surface area that is fully ground for total adhesion, do a full inspection taking care to locate any cracks and air bubbles, match your boat’s original gelcoat color to ensure a smooth, seamless match, and finally using some light sanding techniques to finish the repair area and revitalize your boat’s appearance.
Structural and Collision Repair
We target both the visible damage and the hidden damage not seen at first glance and perform all necessary marine-grade repairs throughout to ensure the strength of the hull so your boat remains safe the next time you take it out on the water.
Deck and Floor Repair
In most cases, we can address these issues by removing the damaged core material and installing stronger marine-grade composite materials with long-lasting durability. Our technicians reseal the work to keep out moisture and protect your boat’s structural integrity.
