Marine Decking & Repairs
Precision-Crafted Teak, Hardwood and Plywood Decking for Classic Boats
At Sutherland Joinery, we offer expert marine decking installation, repair, and replacement for classic and custom wooden vessels. Whether fitting new laid decks or just doing localised repairs, we bring traditional craftsmanship, marine-grade materials, and attention to detail to every project.
From small repairs to complete re-decking, we ensure each job is completed to the highest standard — preserving both the beauty and function of your boat.
Custom Decking in Teak & Durable Hardwoods
We work with a range of top-quality, marine-grade timbers — including teak, iroko, and Robbins marine ply — chosen for their resilience, natural grip, and resistance to saltwater, sunlight, and wear.
Our services include:
Laid decking - hardwood + softwood decking bonded atop marine ply with West System products and caulked with Sika or TDS products
Traditional caulked decking
Traditional deck coverings in lino or canvas
Modern painted deck coverings by use of marine ply and fibreglass
Whether restoring a historic yacht or maintaining a well-used classic, our team delivers work that’s as functional as it is visually striking.
Tailored to Your Vessel
Every boat is different — and so is every deck. We work closely with owners, surveyors, and boatbuilders to ensure our decking solutions respect the vessel’s structure and style. Our joinery is tailored to match existing patterns, margins, and curvature, resulting in a seamless finish that looks original, not replaced.
We bring particular care to:
Accurate templating for curved and angled surfaces
Symmetrical board layouts and margin trims
Traditional fastening methods or modern hidden-fix systems
Long-lasting surface protection, tailored to your preferences
