Tint World ® Wax Sealant & Protectant

After cleaning, yacht detailing continues with a Collinites Fiberglass wax or Collinites Fleet wax for painted boats to remove oxidation and restore your boat's paint or gel-coatfinish to a glistening shine. A fresh coat of wax will protect your boat from U.V rays and keep salt, dirt and other environmental pollutants from penetrating and damaging your boat's finish. We also add a separate silicone spray before drying the vessel with chamois, which results in a 'just waxed' looking shine.

Tint World ® Interior Yacht & Boat Detailing

Interior yacht & boat detailing includes dusting, polishing, vacuuming, and scrubbing to ensure your galley, heads, and any other areas below deck are always kept in pristine conditions.

Tint World ® Compounding (Oxidation Removal)

Gel-coat, the exterior finish on fiberglass boats, is a porous mix of polyester resins and pigments that must be sealed from the damaging effects of ultra-violet (UV) rays, salt, dirt and weather. Without proper boat detailing, it becomes more porous due to the oxidation of the mixture resins and what remains is a faded, dull finish. Yearly compounding will keep your boat looking good for years. Periodic polishing with a fine compound will remove the oxidation. Applying and maintaining a good coat of wax after cleaning will prevent further deterioration.

*If your yacht or boat is already dull and chalky we can restore it to its original luster by boat detailing with machine compounding, polishing, and waxing.

Tint World ® Waxing (Sealant, Protectant)

After boat cleaning, we use a professional grade marine wax providing the highest standard of long lasting shine. This yacht & boat detailing service will make your vessel look show-room good.

Tint World ® Leather, Vinyl Restoration

Our yacht and boat detailing service includes special polyvinyl polish to return your vinyl enclosures' clarity, hide any scratches, and make your vinyl enclosure water repellent.

Tint World ® Fiberglass, Gel-coat, Non-Skid Repair

During yacht & boat detailing, one can't help but notice "the little things." Often the minor scratch or nick only affects the cosmetic quality of the surface. If the blemish is deep enough to expose the fiberglass mat below then it requires immediate attention to prevent water from entering the core and de-laminating the structure. Either way we have the answer. From minor chip and scratch repair to filling and fairing, and non-skid deck repair or rebuilding, we have the knowledge and experience to get the job done right.

Tint World ® Stainless, Metal, Aluminum Yacht Detailing

If your engine requires repair, we have a certified and insured mechanic on our staff available at all times.

Tint World ® Teak Wood / Gel Coat Repair

Nothing makes your yacht or boat look more beautiful than a brand new coat of varnish on your wood surfaces. A high quality varnish during yacht detailing will greatly extend the longevity and beauty of the wood. Varnish will prevent the wood from absorbing moisture, environmental pollutants, and protect it from spills and dirt.

Gel-coat, the exterior finish on fiberglass boats, is a porous mix of polyester resins and pigments that must be sealed from the damaging effects of ultra-violet rays, salt, dirt, and weather. Neglect it, and it becomes more porous due to the oxidation of the mixture resins and what remains is a faded, dull finish. With Tint World ® Yacht & Boat Detailing Services, we protect and repair your gel-coat.

Tint World ® Boat and Yacht Hull Detailing

If the hull of your vessel isn't maintained, marine growth creates drag, and reduces your speed. Extra demand on engines to maintain your speed means increased fuel use and an added cost, regardless of vessel size. Monthly yacht and boat detailing for your hull, performed by Tint World ® experienced divers, will preserve your hull's paint, and ensure that your smooth and clean hull slips through the water without added drag.

*Yacht detailing prices may vary based on condition of vessel and store location. Each store is individually owned and operated, see store manager for details.

Boat Detailing Cost: Types, Size & Condition

According to estimates, 12 million Americans have a boat, and they all need regular cleaning. In such a case, boat detailing cost is one of the crucial questions, besides fuel costs, marina reservation, and berth booking. The final price you can expect will mostly depend on the boat size and the type of service you want. Let’s take a look.

What is Boat Detailing?

How much does it cost to detail a boat, detailing type, detailing cost for various boat types, what affect the boat detailing price.

Boat detailing is the boat’s hull cleaning process and refinishing when necessary. It is essential to do this job regularly, no matter what boat type you own. However, you should be aware that models made of fiberglass are more demanding than others. Regular cleaning is the only way to keep them protected and shine.

The detailing process begins with washing and removing dirt accumulated on the hull’s surface. Then, it is necessary to remove oxidation by buffing the hull and restore the surface’s color by applying a protective finish. Additionally, the detailer will solve possible issues with canvas and wooden parts.

Interior boat detailing – This package includes topside interior cleaning, floor, glass, and seat cleaning and conditioning, and mildew removal. The average price is $10 to $40 per 1 foot (30.5 cm).

Exterior boat detailing – The average package focuses on a hand-wash of boat exterior with microfiber mitts and gel coat marine soap. It also includes oxidation removal, a buff and wax, and trailer wash. The total cost ranges from $15 to $50 per foot.

1. Boat size

Detailers will charge you boat detailing per boat length, so the price will be higher if you have a larger model.

3. Specialty service

This service type includes emergency cleaning after a party. You can request:

• Stain removal
• Air sanitation to get rid of bad odors

You need to pay extra for this, and the rate will depend on your demands.

4. Location

The region where you live and distance from a boat detailing shop will affect the final bill. The reason is different taxes, insurances , and staff salaries in various states. Living near the sea or in a polluted area will require additional work and higher detailing prices.

5. Detailer’s license, skills, and experience

Some expensive boats require highly skillful and licensed detailers. As you can expect, their rates are always higher. Those professionals typically use high-quality and costly tools, equipment, and materials, so it is fair to charge you more.

Detailing price can significantly vary, depending on your boat’s size, shape, and condition. You should also consider the detailer’s skills and license and your location. In most cases, the basic service will cost you $2 to $4 per 1 foot (3.5 cm), but you can expect a higher rate for additional requirements.

Boat and Yacht Cleaning / Marine Valeting

Boat and yacht cleaning / marine vessel valeting.

Keeping your boat or yacht clean is not just crucial for the overall cleanliness and appearance of the vessel, but it also helps increase its longevity. With the help of professional cleaning, you will find that your boat or yacht has an increased lifespan because all the debris that was lodged onto the boat when you had taken it outside will be removed entirely. The debris tends to damage the materials with which the yachts are made by causing chemical reactions and increasing wear and tear. But if you opt for a thorough boat and yacht cleaning, our personnel will remove all the debris, and the materials will last longer. Some of the other reasons why you should opt for marine valeting are as follows:

Boat Surface Cleaning and Polishing.

When you opt for our Boat and Yacht Cleaning / Marine Valeting services, the first thing you can be assured of is that your entire boat will be buffed and cleaned. The yacht will receive a thorough cleaning from above the waterline. You can also choose to get the cockpit cleaned to ensure the complete removal of debris from the boat’s surface. In addition, when you choose our regular wash downs you can be assured of the following services and benefits:

• The deep cleaning will remove any stains or scuff marks the boat might have sustained during its journey. In addition, with the Boat and Yacht Cleaning / Marine Valeting service, you can be assured that the boat’s exterior is gleaming and polished.
• When you take the boat out to the water, it is not just the part below the waterline that sustains damage from being in contact with water. You will find limescale marks, scratches, and boot line stains on the hull. These need to be cleaned thoroughly so that no debris is left on your boat.

Hey! Book Now Mobile Cleaning Service

Call us and we can come to you and clean, valet, or detail your boat or yacht.

Our personnel will remove all debris from the hull and boat’s surface. This is necessary to reduce the yacht’s wear and tear and increase the vessel’s overall longevity. The saline water and the limescale can cause severe damage to your boat. Thus, thoroughly cleaning and polishing will make your boat look good as new and increase its lifespan.

Antifouling the hull of your boat

When you take your boat out in the water, you cannot prevent the growth of barnacles or weeds on your hull. But you must remove these regularly to ensure the hull is not damaged. Moreover, you need to apply a coat of antifouling agents like cuprous oxide or biocides to reduce the growth of barnacles and weeds. Without proper antifouling, the hull of your boat can be severely damaged. But with the help of our experts, you can be assured that you will get the best antifouling services. When you hire, our experts will first check the condition of your boat and prepare the hull before the antifouling process is started. Our experts will ensure the hull is completely clean before applying the antifouling agent.

Cleaning the interior of your  boat

Our interior yacht valeting services.

Our company’s most essential service is cleaning your yacht’s interior. This is inclusive of several cleaning services, and some of these are as follows:

• When your boat is docked in the marina, our cleaning crew will give a thorough cleaning of the interior of your boat. Our personnel will clean the cabins, the deck, and the cockpit
• Your yacht’s bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom will be cleaned thoroughly by our cleaning staff. This is necessary because cabins can become quite dirty after a trip, especially if you do not have a crew to clean the cabins regularly. You should also ensure that the carpets are shampooed and cleaned as these have a tendency to get dirty more than the other sections of the cabins.
• When opting to clean the yacht’s interior, you should also disinfect the interiors to ensure that there are no germs or pathogens inside the boat.

As we use branded cleaning products that are the best in the industry, you can be assured that the result will also be perfect. Our carpet cleaning is usually charged extra and not included in the regular interior cleaning of yachts. But if you opt for it, you will find your yacht’s interior looks brand new. With thorough carpet and upholstery cleaning, the interior of your boat is free of germs or pathogens.

With our Boat Cleaning and Valeting Services teak renovation services, you can be assured that the longevity of the deck of your boat will be increased remarkably. Teak cleaning and refurbishing can help bring the deck of your boat back to an older appearance. Our experts will remove the scuff marks, stains, and other marks on the wooden surface. This is necessary before the treatment or dressing is done to the teak surface to restore it to its former glory. Teak renovation is done in two steps. First, the surface is prepared, and then the treatment is applied to ensure that the teak looks as good as new.

Expenses involved for Boat and Yacht Cleaning / Marine Valeting

If you want your boat or yacht to be as good as new, you need to hire our Boat and Yacht Cleaning / Marine Valeting services. The cost will depend on the particular service that you require.

Full Detailing: This comprehensive service includes both exterior and interior cleaning, detailing, and restoration. Prices varies depending on the size and condition of the boat.

Additional Services: Services such as teak cleaning, metal polishing, engine cleaning, and canvas cleaning may incur additional charges depending on the complexity and size of the task.

It's important to note that these are general price ranges, and actual costs may vary based on the specific requirements of your boat and the rates of the service provider. Additionally, some companies offer package deals or discounts for regular maintenance services or bundled services.

It's recommended to contact several boat cleaning companies, discuss your needs, and request quotes to compare prices and services before making a decision. This way, you can ensure that you get the best value for your investment in boat cleaning services.

How often should boats be detailed?

The frequency of boat detailing depends on several factors, including how often the boat is used, its storage conditions, and the owner's preferences. Here are some general guidelines for boat detailing frequency:

Regular Use: If you use your boat frequently, especially in saltwater or harsh environmental conditions, it's advisable to detail it at least once a year or every six months. Regular detailing helps protect the boat's surfaces from corrosion, UV damage, and wear and tear.

Seasonal Use: For boats that are used seasonally, such as during the summer months, detailing before and after the boating season is recommended. This helps prepare the boat for storage and ensures it remains in good condition during periods of inactivity.

Storage Conditions: Boats stored outdoors or in uncovered marinas may require more frequent detailing due to exposure to the elements, including sun, rain, and saltwater. Indoor or covered storage can help protect the boat and reduce the frequency of detailing.

Type of Detailing: The type of detailing service also influences the frequency. Basic exterior washes may be needed more frequently, while full detailing services (including compounding, waxing, and interior cleaning) can be done less often, such as once or twice a year.

Boat Condition: The condition of the boat also plays a role. Older boats or boats with existing oxidation, stains, or wear may benefit from more frequent detailing to restore and maintain their appearance.

Ultimately, the best approach is to assess your boat's condition, usage patterns, and storage environment, and then determine a detailing schedule that suits your needs. Regular maintenance and cleaning between detailing sessions, such as rinsing after each use and using protective covers, can also help prolong the intervals between full detailing services.

How often should a boat's hull be cleaned?

The frequency of hull cleaning for a boat depends on several factors, including the type of hull material, where the boat is used, and the level of fouling or growth accumulation. Here are some general guidelines for how often a boat's hull should be cleaned:

Boat Usage: If your boat is used frequently, especially in saltwater or areas prone to marine growth, the hull may need cleaning more often. For boats used infrequently or in freshwater, less frequent cleaning may be sufficient.

Hull Material: Different hull materials may require different cleaning frequencies. For example, boats with fiberglass or painted hulls may need cleaning less often than boats with gelcoat or non-antifouling hulls that are more prone to marine growth.

Location: Boats moored or docked in marinas with high levels of marine growth or in warm, nutrient-rich waters may require more frequent hull cleaning. Boats in cleaner or colder waters may need less frequent cleaning.

Antifouling Paint: If your boat has antifouling paint applied to the hull, it can help reduce marine growth and extend the time between cleanings. However, antifouling paint effectiveness can diminish over time and may require reapplication.

Visual Inspection: Regularly inspecting the hull for signs of fouling, such as barnacles, algae, or slime, can help determine when cleaning is necessary. If you notice significant growth or a decrease in performance, it's time to clean the hull.

As a general recommendation, boats in saltwater or warm climates may benefit from hull cleaning every 1-3 months to prevent excessive fouling and maintain optimal performance. In freshwater or colder climates with less marine growth, hull cleaning every 3-6 months may be sufficient.

It's important to follow manufacturer recommendations for hull cleaning products and techniques to avoid damaging the hull or antifouling coatings. Additionally, regular maintenance such as rinsing the hull after each use and using antifouling paints or coatings can help reduce the frequency of hull cleaning.

Does waxing the hull of a boat help?

Yes, waxing the hull of a boat can provide several benefits and is generally recommended as part of regular boat maintenance. Here are some ways in which waxing the hull can help:

Protection from UV Rays: Boat hulls are exposed to sunlight, which can cause fading, oxidation, and damage to the gelcoat or paint. Waxing creates a protective barrier that helps shield the hull from UV rays, reducing the risk of sun damage and preserving the hull's color and finish.

Prevention of Oxidation: Over time, exposure to the elements can lead to oxidation, which manifests as a chalky or dull appearance on the hull. Waxing regularly can prevent oxidation by sealing the surface and preventing moisture and contaminants from penetrating the gelcoat or paint.

Enhanced Shine: Waxing creates a smooth and glossy finish on the hull, enhancing its appearance and giving it a showroom-like shine. This not only makes the boat look more attractive but also improves its resale value.

Ease of Cleaning: A waxed hull is easier to clean and maintain. The smooth surface repels dirt, grime, and saltwater, making it easier to rinse off and reducing the need for aggressive scrubbing or cleaning solutions that can damage the hull.

Longevity of Antifouling Coatings: For boats with antifouling coatings, waxing can help prolong the effectiveness of these coatings by providing an additional layer of protection and reducing friction, which can help prevent marine growth and fouling.

Water Beading: Waxed surfaces exhibit water beading, where water droplets form into beads and roll off the hull more easily. This not only contributes to the boat's appearance but also helps maintain hydrodynamic performance by reducing drag.

It's important to note that the effectiveness of waxing depends on the quality of the wax used, the application technique, and the frequency of waxing. High-quality marine waxes specifically formulated for boats are recommended for best results. Additionally, waxing should be part of a regular boat maintenance routine that includes cleaning, polishing, and protective treatments to keep the hull in optimal condition.

Why is hull cleaning important?

Hull cleaning is important for several reasons, as it plays a crucial role in maintaining the performance, appearance, and longevity of a boat. Here are the key reasons why hull cleaning is important:

Performance: A clean hull reduces drag and friction as the boat moves through the water, which can improve fuel efficiency and overall performance. Fouling and marine growth on the hull can increase resistance, slowing down the boat and affecting maneuverability.

Fuel Efficiency: A fouled or dirty hull can lead to increased fuel consumption as the engine works harder to overcome drag. Regular hull cleaning helps maintain optimal hydrodynamic conditions, resulting in better fuel efficiency and lower operating costs.

Prevents Damage: Marine growth, barnacles, and algae on the hull can cause damage over time. They can create rough surfaces that increase drag, erode protective coatings, and even lead to corrosion or structural issues if left unchecked. Cleaning the hull removes these potential sources of damage.

Preserves Coatings: For boats with antifouling coatings or protective paint, regular hull cleaning helps preserve the effectiveness of these coatings. Fouling and growth can degrade coatings over time, reducing their ability to prevent marine growth and protect the hull.

Maintains Appearance: A clean hull enhances the appearance of the boat, making it look well-maintained and appealing. It also prevents staining, discoloration, and the buildup of dirt or debris that can detract from the boat's overall aesthetics.

Prevents Biofouling: Marine growth and biofouling on the hull can harbor invasive species, parasites, and bacteria, posing environmental risks and potential regulatory issues. Regular hull cleaning helps prevent biofouling and minimize ecological impacts.

Improves Safety: A clean hull contributes to safer boating by reducing the risk of accidents or incidents caused by decreased maneuverability, reduced speed, or engine strain due to fouling.

Overall, hull cleaning is an essential part of boat maintenance that contributes to better performance, fuel efficiency, safety, and aesthetics. It helps protect the boat's surfaces, coatings, and structural integrity, ensuring a longer lifespan and a more enjoyable boating experience.

How is hull cleaning performed?

Hull cleaning is typically performed using a combination of manual techniques, tools, and cleaning products. Here's a step-by-step guide on how hull cleaning is generally performed:

Assessment: Begin by assessing the condition of the hull to determine the extent of fouling, marine growth, or dirt accumulation. Note areas that require special attention or additional cleaning.

Gather Supplies: Gather the necessary cleaning supplies, which may include:

• Soft-bristle brush or sponge
• Boat hull cleaner (mild detergent or specialized hull cleaner)
• Bucket of fresh water
• Protective gloves
• Non-abrasive scrub pads (optional)
• Hose or pressure washer (if available)

Prepare the Area: Park or dock the boat in a suitable location, ensuring it is stable and accessible for cleaning. Ideally, choose a shaded area to prevent cleaning solutions from drying too quickly.

Rinse the Hull: Begin by rinsing the hull with clean water to remove loose dirt, salt, and debris. Use a hose or pressure washer on a gentle setting to avoid damaging the hull or coatings.

Apply Cleaning Solution: If using a boat hull cleaner, follow the manufacturer's instructions to dilute it in a bucket of fresh water. Alternatively, you can use a mild detergent mixed with water. Apply the cleaning solution evenly to the hull.

Scrub Gently: Using a soft-bristle brush or sponge, scrub the hull in circular or back-and-forth motions, focusing on areas with fouling, stains, or marine growth. Avoid using abrasive scrub pads or brushes that can scratch or damage the hull.

Remove Stubborn Stains: For stubborn stains or heavy fouling, you may need to use a non-abrasive scrub pad or specialized cleaning tool. Use gentle pressure and continue scrubbing until the stains or fouling are removed.

Rinse Thoroughly: After scrubbing, thoroughly rinse the hull with clean water to remove the cleaning solution and loosened debris. Ensure all traces of the cleaner are rinsed off to prevent residue buildup.

Inspect and Touch Up: Inspect the hull for any remaining stains or areas that require additional cleaning. Touch up these areas as needed, using a more concentrated cleaning solution or targeted scrubbing.

Dry and Protect: Once the hull is clean, use a soft cloth or chamois to dry it thoroughly and prevent water spots. Consider applying a wax or protective coating to the hull to enhance shine and provide additional protection against fouling.

Dispose of Cleaning Materials: Dispose of any leftover cleaning solution and rinse water according to local regulations, especially if using specialized hull cleaners.

It's important to note that the cleaning method may vary based on the type of hull material (e.g., fiberglass, aluminum, gelcoat) and the presence of antifouling coatings. Always follow manufacturer recommendations and avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools that can damage the hull or environmental surroundings. If unsure, consult a professional boat detailing service for expert hull cleaning.
