MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Your trusted partner in the Maintenance and Repair of your boat
DOES YOUR BOAT NEED ATTENTION?
The hull of your boat is constantly exposed to the harsh elements of nature. Old paint can become a home for barnacles and other bivalves, algae, and corrosion, all of which can weaken the structure and performance of your boat. Whether you are preparing for the summer season or simply need maintenance, paint blasting is an essential step to ensure a good application of paint and protection schemes on your boat’s hull.
Our service meticulously removes all layers of old paint, rust, and other imperfections, leaving your boat’s hull clean and ready to receive a new layer of protection.
We work using sandblasting, an effective and environmentally responsible method for removing boat paint without producing solid waste that can pollute the environment. This type of blasting allows for greater precision and control throughout the process, which means that less material is removed from the boat, thus preserving its structural integrity.
A new coat of paint is not just about aesthetics. It is about protecting your boat from corrosion, damage caused by UV rays, and the inherent wear and tear of the marine environment. Our hull painting service uses high-quality marine paints, specially formulated to withstand harsh conditions, protecting your boat from the elements and wear and tear.
We also offer a variety of protection schemes, such as anti-osmosis treatments or anti-vegetative paints, which help keep your boat in good condition so you can enjoy days at sea year after year.
Carpentry is an integral part of your boat’s identity, but it is also susceptible to damage caused by moisture, insects, and sun. Our team, in addition to years of experience in the field of naval carpentry, is passionate about the preservation and restoration of any woodwork on a boat.
We use traditional techniques and knowledge, combined with current technology, to ensure excellent work from the application and maintenance of teak decks to the restoration of furniture and finishes.
Fiberglass is a versatile and durable material that plays a crucial role in the construction and maintenance of boats. It is lightweight, strong, and corrosion-resistant, making it an ideal choice for various components of your boat, including hulls, decks, hatches, and interior trim. However, it is also susceptible to damage caused by impact, corrosion, and UV rays.
Our specialized fiberglass work team has extensive experience in boat repair and restoration, dealing with all types of damage, from small cracks and holes to more serious structural damage caused by impact or corrosion.

- Hull repairs
