Boat Repairs AT UPHILL MARINA

Are you looking for boat repairs in Weston-Super-Mare?  After a decade of undertaking mobile boat repairs across the United Kingdom Boat Renovation People are now offering boat repairs and marine services at Uphill Marina.

With an undercover space- we are able to work on crafts up to 30ft in length with the addition of onsite boat storage.   Larger vessels can arrive by road but will need to be worked on externally in the front or back yard.  There is an onsite hoist with a 15-tonne lift capacity as well as a telehandler to aid with mast and rigging work. Vessels can also arrive and launch by sea using the onsite facilities - tide-dependent.

We had a very unusual repair that needed to be done to our Jacuzzi balance tank that required a specialist to repair this. So i contacted Louis just to see if he could do this due to the nature of his business. From start to finish Louis was professional. polite and did a great job. I would definitely use Louis again and highly recommended the company.

Lou has completed many jobs for me over the years from headlining and insulating racing boats to fibreglass and structural repairs, resealing deck fttings, portholes and assisting with mast drops. He recently completed a job, laminating the cabin on a 44ft Sail boat and working alongside the carpenter and myself to completely rebuild the deck and topcabin. Highly recommend getting in touch if you're in need of boat repairs.

Louis has been brilliant in supporting me throughout the year with a range of jobs on our Dutch Barge. All completed to a high standard at very reasonable rates. He also completed the repaint of the hull this autumn and did a superb job coordinating other contractors to get the job done. All this the more impressive as I live 250 miles from the boat and have had to trust all aspects to Louis. Would not hesitate to use again

Why Choose Us?

We have been living and working on boats for many years.  We know what works,  and we also know what doesn't.   Through our mobile marine services,  we've had the pleasure of working in many different marinas and boat yards across the country and emobodying the wealth of knowledge that comes with that.  It's always been important to BRP that we are transparent about budgets, charges and what we can provide for our customers.  If it's a job we're not capable of doing we'll outsource or atleast guide you in the right direction - just get in touch.
