Deck Replacement
On almost every renovation project we take on, at least some of the wooden components must be replaced. Most renovations are on boats which have been sitting idle for a while, are damaged or have experienced rotting issues. In any case, we assess the boat from top to bottom and determine which wood must be replaced. From there, we hand craft new pieces to take their place out of similar materials to the original boat. Since we’re master woodworkers, we can create exact matches which seamlessly can be installed to create a like-new finished product.
Professional Finishing
Every wooden boat owner knows the finish of the boat makes all the difference in its appearance. When taking on a restoration, the finishing takes time to be done the right way. When we restore a boat, we strip away every bit of old lacquer, protectants, grime and other substances to reveal the natural wood. Then we use great care to apply several layers of new lacquer, taking the time to allow for drying and re-sanding, until the finished product shines like new. The difference in a professional finish is instantly visible, and if you want to do your renovation the right way then partnering with an expert is a must.
Continuing Care
We want our restoration projects to take the water for many years to come, and we can help guarantee your boat looks and runs its best with continuing service. We provide regular maintenance service, refinishing services and annual inspections all with the goal of ensuring your boat is protected and water ready whenever you are.
We want to help with any Garwood restoration project you have. Whether the boat needs a complete overhaul or just a renovation, we know you will love the finished product. To learn more about our services, browse our website or give us a call today.
