Marine-grade detailing for yachts and boats in Oakville — gelcoat, teak, brightwork, and interiors treated by hand, at your berth.
Oakville sits at the centre of the western Lake Ontario yachting corridor, with two working harbours — Oakville Harbour on Sixteen Mile Creek and Bronte on Twelve Mile Creek — plus a strong private-dock presence along the shoreline. Vessels here spend a short, intense season under sustained summer UV, then come out for a long winter, and that cycle is exactly what dictates the right detailing schedule. Gelcoat oxidises fastest in the months a boat sits uncovered at a slip, so protection applied at spring commissioning is what carries a hull through to haul-out looking right. Royal Caspian works at your Oakville berth, in the water, with no need to move or haul the vessel. We schedule around the marina calendar so the work lands before the season rather than in the middle of it.
Staged machine compounding and refinement to reverse UV oxidation and restore depth, cutting only as far as the finish actually requires.
Open-water berths take unbroken sun all season. Sealant or ceramic goes on at commissioning so it protects through peak UV rather than after the damage.
Waterline marking, rust runs, and exhaust staining removed with marine-specific product rather than aggressive acid washing.
Cleaned across the grain, brightened, and treated. No high-pressure washing — it erodes soft grain and permanently ridges the deck.
Rails and fittings polished and passivated to arrest surface rust at its source rather than buffing it out temporarily.
Cabins, galley, heads, and berths deep cleaned, with upholstery, headliners, and joinery treated per material.
Clear vinyl enclosures cleaned with dedicated product — standard glass cleaner hazes and cracks isinglass permanently.
Spring commissioning and pre-haul-out protective details timed to your marina's calendar.

We inspect the vessel at its Oakville berth, assessing gelcoat condition, oxidation depth, teak wear, and brightwork staining before proposing anything.
You receive a documented scope by area — hull, deck, brightwork, interior — with clear pricing and a realistic schedule.
Full wash and decontamination to remove environmental fallout and waterline staining before any correction begins.
Staged gelcoat compounding and refinement, teak restoration, and stainless passivation, performed in the correct sequence.
Marine sealant or ceramic coating applied to prepared surfaces, with cure time respected before the vessel returns to normal use.
Cabins and interior completed last, then a walkthrough with you before we leave the vessel.
We book Oakville and Bronte work against the commissioning and haul-out calendar, so protection goes on before peak UV rather than halfway through the summer when most of the damage is already done.
Gelcoat is not clearcoat and teak is not trim. Applying car detailing methods to a hull is how owners end up burning through gelcoat — a repair far more costly than the detail itself.
Technicians work to the same confidentiality expectations as our private aviation and estate clients. No photography of your vessel without your explicit written consent.
