We fix boat fiberglass damage that other shops refuse.
Did your boat crack the hull on a dock? Did the gel coat shatter from a grounding? Did a trailer mishap leave damage you can't ignore? These things happen fast, and the damage almost always goes deeper than what's visible - cracked laminate, compromised core, moisture already wicking into layers you can't see.
You called around and heard the same thing. Body shops said "we don't do boats." Marine dealers quoted months of wait time or said they'd outsource it. A general shop tried body filler and automotive paint on your hull - and the repair looked wrong and started failing within a season. When other companies say no, we say yes. Fiberglass Worx specializes in what others won't touch. We perform full boat fiberglass repairs using marine-grade fiberglass mat and resin with our proprietary bonding compounds. We finish with gel coat - not automotive paint - because that's what belongs on a boat. We assess whether damage is cosmetic or structural before touching anything, then repair it right the first time. Our team brings over 20 years of combined fiberglass experience, and our dedicated indoor facility controls temperature and humidity for proper resin curing - something parking lot repairs and open bays can't deliver in Colorado's variable climate.

Every boat repair follows our proven 6-step process in our dedicated indoor facility.
Bring your boat to our shop at 7685 Dahlia Street in Commerce City. We inspect the damage with you and give you an honest assessment on the spot - whether it's cosmetic or structural, what materials are needed, and a realistic cost range and timeline. No phone quotes - because fiberglass damage needs to be seen and touched to be properly evaluated.
We photograph everything and create a detailed repair scope. We check for hidden damage - moisture intrusion, core compromise, laminate depth. If insurance is involved, we document to adjuster standards and can coordinate directly. You don't play middleman. We handle it.
We grind down damaged fiberglass to reach solid, sound material. If the damage is structural, we remove everything that's compromised - gel coat, laminate, core - until we're working on a clean foundation. This step takes time. Rushing prep leads to weak repairs. We don't rush.
Using marine-grade fiberglass mat saturated with premium resin and our proprietary bonding compounds, we rebuild the damaged section from the inside out. Multiple layers, proper saturation, controlled curing conditions. The repair ends up stronger than the original factory lamination.
Once the structural work cures, we apply gel coat and match your boat's original color. Gel coat is not automotive paint - different pigment profiles, different cure chemistry, different UV durability. We analyze your specific gel coat under different lighting conditions and mix custom blends on site so the repair disappears into the surrounding surface.
We inspect every repair before you pick it up. We check structural integrity, color accuracy, surface finish, and adhesion. We walk you through what was done, how the repair will perform, and what to expect. Then we get your boat back to you in 4-6 weeks.

Everything you need to know about boat fiberglass repair at Fiberglass Worx.
Cost depends on damage type and severity. Cosmetic gel coat repairs typically run $300-$800. Moderate hull cracks and impact damage range from $1,000-$3,000. Major structural rebuilds or transom work can cost $3,000-$8,000 or more. We provide free verbal estimates in person - no phone quotes, because every boat is different.
Most repairs are completed within 4-6 weeks from start to finish. That includes surface prep, repair, resin curing, gel coat application, finishing, and quality inspection. Marine dealers often quote months or outsource the work entirely. We're faster without cutting corners.
Gel coat. Always. Automotive paint doesn't belong on a boat. Different pigment profiles, different cure chemistry, different UV durability. Shops that use automotive paint on boats create repairs that look wrong and fail faster. We color-match gel coat to your boat's original finish.
In many cases, yes. Boat insurance with collision or comprehensive coverage typically covers dock impacts, trailer accidents, storm damage, and grounding. We document the damage and can work with marine insurance adjusters directly. Contact your insurer to confirm coverage, then bring your boat in for a free estimate.
Yes - this is common for us. Most body shops lack the expertise for marine fiberglass work. Marine dealers may outsource it and mark up the price. We have the skills, materials, and controlled facility to handle boat fiberglass repairs that others refuse.
Every boat and every damage is different. A photo can show a crack, but it can't tell you how deep it goes, whether the core is compromised, or whether water has infiltrated the laminate. Free verbal estimates at our shop give you an honest, accurate answer - not a guess.
Absolutely. Colorado's high-altitude UV is 15-20% more intense than at sea level, which degrades gel coat faster and causes oxidation, chalking, and fading. The freeze-thaw cycle pushes moisture deeper into cracks - water gets in during warm days, freezes and expands overnight, widening the damage. Boats stored outdoors are especially vulnerable.
We work on virtually every fiberglass boat - Tige, Centurion, Mastercraft, Malibu, fishing boats, bass boats, day cruisers, sailboats, jet skis, and more. If it's fiberglass, we can fix it. The same six-step process and marine-grade materials apply regardless of brand or size.
