What we do
Five kinds of work, from the top layer to the structure
From a dull hull that only needs polishing to laminate lying wide open. What decides the work is not how big the damage looks, but how deep it sits.
At the surface
Polishing
The gelcoat is still sound, but has gone dull or chalky. Machine polishing takes that layer of oxidation off and brings the shine back.
removing oxidation · polishing out scratches · wax or coating
The top layer
Gelcoat repair
Scratches along the topsides, a broken corner or discolouration in the top layer. The colour is mixed until the repair no longer stands out next to the old.
berthing damage · colour matching · spot repair
The structure
Polyester repair
Once the laminate itself is open, it is no longer a cosmetic problem. Grind back to sound material, laminate again, back to strength.
cracks and holes · delamination · leaks
Below the waterline
Antifouling
The underwater hull: old layers off, the substrate assessed, and a system that suits the water your boat lies in.
removing old layers · primer and barrier coat · osmosis prevention
The whole boat
RIB restoration
A RIB takes more punishment than a cabin boat. Hull, console and tubes are dealt with as one, not separately.
