Pontoon dock refurbishments

It’s common for a pontoon’s dock to experience some wear and tear through use and age. Whether it’s new pontoon fenders, cleats, or re-carpeting, we can strip back your dock to the concrete and start over to create a ‘good as new’ pontoon dock. Pontoon dock refurbishments are quick, easy, and much more affordable than getting a new pontoon!

Docks and gangways re-carpeting or resurfacing

You can expect to get around 8-10 years from your marine carpet; after that, the glue breaks down, causing the carpet to likely fray, tear, and lift. Re-carpeting the pontoon’s dock and the gangway is another easy and affordable way to make your pontoon look brand new. It’s also a great idea if you want to sell your home and get top dollar. Nothing looks as good as new carpet on a pontoon!

Gangway handrail replacements

Gangways experience much use and can be knocked down and damaged over the years. The aluminium may even corrode or need additional welding. Our experienced team can repair or replace gangway handrails to make your pontoon safe again.

Gangway refurbishments and upgrades

Not all gangways are made to last. If you inherit a gangway with timber decking, marine plywood or cement sheeting, these materials will likely rot over time and need replacing. We can assist. Whether you want to change a timber gangway to an aluminium mesh gangway, aluminium sheeting covered in marine carpet, or maybe even fibreglass-reinforced decking, we are here to help. We can also add custom welded accessories like kayak holders or light posts to a gangway for added functionality.

Pile roller replacements

Piled pontoons are robust, but they do require additional maintenance. Rollers wear with use and regularly need replacing to ensure smooth, trouble-free operation. Our team can replace the rollers with new ones to keep your dock gliding smoothly up and down the piles. Call us today to be included on our annual pile roller maintenance list, and we will call or email you a friendly reminder every 12 months.

Pile bracket repairs and replacements

Pile brackets, which hold pile rollers, also wear and can need repairs or replacement. It’s not uncommon for a pile bracket to break under stress due to barnacle buildup on the pile. The rollers can’t glide freely up and down the pile, putting strain on the bracket, causing a fracture or break. We’re the team to call in such a situation.

Strut repairs

Strut pontoons use a strut arm to hold them horizontally in place on the water. These strut arms can become damaged and need repair through time, wear, and extreme weather events. We have the tools and parts needed to conduct repairs quickly and professionally.

Cable repairs and replacements

Cable pontoons and strut pontoons rely on stainless steel cables to hold them horizontally in place on the water.  Like strut arms, these cables can become damaged with time, wear, and extreme weather conditions. They can fray and break and need repair.

Conclusion
