Do fiberglass repairs come with a warranty?

Yes – all fiberglass hull repairs come with a 6–12 month workmanship warranty. We also use marine-grade resins and gelcoats to ensure long-term durability and UV resistance.

Do you repair fiberglass cracks below the waterline?

Absolutely. We repair hull cracks, delamination, and structural fractures both above and below the waterline. All repairs are reinforced using proper marine techniques for submerged applications.

Can you match the original gelcoat color after repair?

Yes – we color match gelcoat finishes to blend repairs seamlessly with the rest of your hull. We use high-quality marine pigments and can match most factory and custom colors.

How much does fiberglass hull repair typically cost?

Minor chip or hairline crack repairs start at $300. Larger hull damage with grinding, fiberglass layup, and refinishing can range from $800 to $2,500 depending on the extent and location.

Do you fix fiberglass delamination on older hulls?

Yes – we specialize in restoring delaminated fiberglass, even on older vessels. We remove damaged laminate, dry the core, and rebuild using marine-grade materials for structural integrity.

What causes fiberglass to crack or delaminate?

Common causes include impact damage, prolonged sun exposure, water intrusion, and aging resins. Poor previous repairs or improper maintenance can also lead to delamination or gelcoat cracks.

Can you repair impact damage from trailering or docking?

Definitely. We frequently fix chips, spider cracks, and crushed fiberglass caused by trailer rollers, dock strikes, or boat lifts. We ensure strength and a smooth finish post-repair.

Details

Surface & Structure

Erase the
Damage.

Impacts, stress cracks, and delamination compromise both the value and safety of your vessel. We perform expert fiberglass structural repairs and precision gelcoat color matching to return your hull to a factory-new finish.

Structural Delamination

When the fiberglass layers separate, the hull creates "soft spots" that flex dangerously. We inject epoxy or cut out the rot, laying new biaxial glass to restore rock-solid rigidity to decks and transoms.

Gelcoat Color Match

White isn't just white. There are hundreds of shades of marine white. We custom tint our gelcoat to match your specific aged hull, ensuring the repair blends invisibly without a "patch" look.

Dock Rash & Gouges

Deep scratches expose the laminate to water intrusion (blisters). We grind out the damage, fill with high-strength fairing compound, and resurface the area for a seamless, watertight seal.

The Repair Process.

Artisan craftsmanship.

Grind & Prep

We bevel the damaged area to a 12:1 ratio. This provides a large surface area for the new fiberglass to bond chemically and mechanically to the old hull.

Lamination

We lay in new layers of 1708 biaxial cloth and marine resin (Polyester or Vinylester), building the thickness back up to match the original hull specs.

Fairing

We apply fairing compound and block sand by hand. This crucial step sculpts the curves, ensuring the repair is perfectly level with the surrounding surface.

Finish & Polish

We spray the final gelcoat layer, then wet-sand from 400 to 2000 grit, finishing with a high-speed compound buff to bring out a mirror shine.

Common Questions

Will the repair spot be visible?

Our goal is 99% invisibility. While aged gelcoat fades (making a perfect match difficult), we tint our materials to blend so well that you won't find it without pointing it out.

Is the repair as strong as the original?

Often stronger. By using modern Vinylester resins and biaxial cloth, the repaired section is frequently more durable and flexible than the original factory layup.
