Overview
What fibreglass & hull repairs usually covers
Damage assessment
Tap testing, moisture readings and visual inspection to find how far the damage extends beyond the visible crack.
Fibreglass and gelcoat repair
Laminate rebuilds, gelcoat colour matching, fairing and refinishing for chips, cracks, holes and impact damage.
Structural work
Transom reinforcement, stringer repairs, floor stiffening and reinforcement around mounts and pump tunnels.
Costs
How much does a fibreglass hull repair cost?
Cost depends on whether the repair is cosmetic or structural, the size of the area, and whether the ski needs stripping to access damage. Ask for an assessment before committing to a full refinishing job.
Slipway rash, stress cracks around the pump tunnel and impact damage all need proper laminate repair, not filler. A structural repair done right restores strength and stays invisible; done badly it cracks again on the first hard landing.

FAQ
Fibreglass & Hull Repairs — frequently asked questions
- Can a small crack in a jetski hull be left?
- No. Even hairline cracks let water into the fibreglass. In salt water that leads to osmosis, delamination and much larger repair bills. Get it assessed early.
