Hull Integrity Repair & Restoration

Core Repair

Over time, many hulls suffer damage to their core materials—such as plywood, balsa, foam, or other composites—which compromises their strength, leads to delamination, or allows moisture ingress. At Everett Yacht Service, we perform thorough core inspections using moisture meters, ultrasound, and visual analysis to locate compromised areas. We then carefully remove damaged core, dry surrounding laminates, install replacement core material matched for density and type, and laminate correctly to re-seal and strengthen the hull. Our core repairs restore structural stiffness and help prevent recurring leaks or soft spots.

Fiberglass Repair

Fiberglass is a workhorse of yacht hull construction—but even strong materials need maintenance after impacts, abrasion, or aging. Our fiberglass repair work includes patching thru-hulls, filling chips or gouges, repairing blistered gel coat, and restoring surface integrity. We use high-quality resins, matched gelcoats, and proper reinforcement with woven or stitched fiberglass cloth. Our finishing work ensures a clean, smooth surface that withstands the marine environment, keeping your vessel both seaworthy and attractive.

Structural Repair

Structural integrity extends beyond surface damage: frames, stringers, bulkheads, hull-deck joints, and keel attachments must withstand high loads and challenging conditions. Everett Yacht Service can handle major structural repairs safely and precisely. We replace or strengthen deteriorated or damaged structural members, reinforce hulls and decks for equipment installations, and ensure that every repaired section meets manufacturer or naval architecture standards. Whether your damage is caused by impact, fatigue, or water damage, we restore proper load paths and ensure structural safety.

Custom Fiberglass Work

Sometimes repair isn’t enough; customization is what your vessel needs. From custom-molded swim platforms, hull extensions, and hardtops to hatches and panels, our fiberglass fabrication shop handles bespoke jobs with meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. We can replicate or improve on existing parts, build lightweight yet strong custom components, and match the aesthetic of your boat. Our artisans ensure that custom fiberglass work blends seamlessly in terms of strength, style, and finish.

Full-Scale Paint Jobs

A fresh, properly applied paint job does more than look good—it protects your hull from corrosion, UV damage, marine fouling, and general wear. Our full-scale paint service includes blasting or sanding old coatings, fairing surfaces, masking, applying primers, and finishing topsides and non-skid surfaces. Using premium marine-grade paints, sealers, and clear coats, we achieve durable, high-gloss, corrosion-resistant finishes that meet or exceed industry standards. Color matching, striping, logo work—we do it all.
