Not Sure Which Boat Service You Need?
That’s common, and it’s what the first conversation is for. A dull, chalky hull might need a detail or a repaint, depending on how far the oxidation has gone. A soft spot in the deck could be a surface repair or a structural one. Send us a few photos and tell us how the boat is used and stored, and we’ll point you to the right starting place.
If a project spans several services, such as a restoration that includes fiberglass, paint and new electronics, we plan it as one job. That keeps the schedule and the finished look consistent.
Where We Work
Our shop is at 16235 Pine Ridge Rd, Unit 206, and our wash crews travel to docks, lifts and marinas across the region. See our service areas for the communities we cover.
