Mobile Boat Repair Services
When Repairs Must Be Done In-Shop
Mobile service is best for repairs that can be completed safely and correctly on-site. We focus on fiberglass and gelcoat-related repairs that do not require full shop conditions.
On-Site Services Include:
-
Minor fiberglass and gelcoat damage repair
-
Chips, scratches, and surface cracks
-
Dock rash and abrasion damage
-
Small impact areas (inspection required)
-
Blending and finishing repaired sections
-
Mobile oxidation removal (when applicable)
Some repairs require controlled conditions, proper curing, and full access to materials and tools. For structural hull damage and larger repairs, we schedule your boat for in-shop service in New Bern.
In-Shop Repairs Are Recommended For:
-
Structural hull cracks or deep fiberglass damage
-
Areas with flexing or soft spots
-
Repairs requiring reinforcement or rebuilding
-
Larger gelcoat repairs needing full finishing work
-
Custom fiberglass fabrication and structural builds
👉 For structural or extensive damage, see our Fiberglass & Gelcoat Boat Repair services performed in-shop.
