Comprehensive Teak Restoration

Teak is a signature feature on many yachts, but it requires regular care to retain its natural beauty and durability. Our teak restoration services bring out the best in your yacht’s wooden surfaces, using gentle yet effective techniques to preserve and protect.


  • Teak Cleaning and Sanding: We thoroughly clean teak surfaces, removing dirt, salt, and other residues. For worn areas, we offer careful sanding to smooth out rough patches without damaging the wood.
  • Sealing and Oiling: After cleaning, we apply a high-quality oil or sealant to protect the teak from UV rays, water exposure, and wear, enhancing its rich color and finish.
  • Varnishing and Maintenance: For yachts with varnished teak, we provide reapplication and touch-ups to maintain a flawless, glossy appearance.

Gelcoat and Fiberglass Repair

Over time, your yacht’s gelcoat and fiberglass surfaces can fade, oxidize, or develop scratches and chips. Our gelcoat and fiberglass repair services restore these areas, bringing back their original luster and ensuring long-lasting protection.


  • Scratch and Chip Repairs: We use color-matched gelcoat to fill and smooth over scratches and chips, restoring a consistent, flawless appearance.
  • Oxidation Removal: Careful removal of oxidation from fiberglass surfaces, bringing back the original shine and clarity.
  • Protective Coatings: After repair, we apply a protective coating to prevent future damage and keep surfaces looking vibrant.

Metal surfaces on yachts are exposed to moisture, salt, and UV rays, making them prone to tarnish and corrosion. Our metal polishing services keep these areas gleaming while adding an extra layer of protection.


  • Rust and Tarnish Removal: Removal of rust and oxidation from stainless steel, chrome, and other metal surfaces to restore a mirror-like shine.
  • Protective Coatings: Application of a specialized coating to shield against saltwater and UV exposure, maintaining a polished look.
  • Regular Touch-Ups: For clients enrolled in our maintenance plans, we offer periodic metal polishing touch-ups to ensure lasting protection.

Metal and Stainless Steel Polishing

Protect your yacht’s canvas covers, upholstery, and seating areas with our canvas and upholstery care services. We help preserve these surfaces from wear and environmental damage, ensuring they remain both functional and visually appealing.


  • Canvas Cleaning and Waterproofing: Cleaning and treating all canvas surfaces, including biminis, sail covers, and enclosures, with waterproofing to extend their life.
  • Vinyl and Leather Conditioning: Conditioning for leather, vinyl, and other fabrics to keep them soft, protected, and resistant to cracking or fading.
  • Minor Repairs: Handling of small repairs on canvas and upholstery to extend the lifespan of these surfaces.
