Marine Conversions Glasgow

Whether you are upgrading a coastal cruiser, restoring a classic sailing yacht, or completely retrofitting a narrowboat for year-round canal living, marine environments demand a level of engineering that goes far beyond standard land-based builds. Constant exposure to moisture, salt, and movement means that every component must be resilient, safe, and meticulously installed.

Turning Boats into Custom Living Spaces

Working on a boat requires absolute precision. Space is non-linear, weight distribution impacts hull trim, and system failures at sea or on the cut are not an option. Our structured process ensures safety and longevity from the keel up.

Instead of navigating unreliable shore power or struggling with outdated, unsafe systems, a professional marine refit transforms your vessel into a high-performance, self-sufficient sanctuary.

We specialise in marine carpentry, structural restoration, and high-end off-grid electrical engineering tailored specifically for the unique demands of the water.

Custom Designs

All of our designs are tailored to each client, which is why we do not offer standard “conversion packages”. We are also really flexible in how we carry out the work & are one of the few companies in Scotland happy to carry out “part conversions”.



Sustainable Approach

The environment is important to us. We have a great relationship with lots of local businesses & will use recycled materials wherever possible. Yes – this helps the planet, but it also helps keep costs down which is a win-win for our customers.



Affordable Solutions

Despite our tailored approach to conversions & modifications, our prices are very affordable. Using recycled materials where possible helps bring the cost down. We also understand everyone needs to work to a budget & can make cost-saving recommendations on every project.

Marine Compliance & Safety Notice

All marine work is executed to meet strict safety standards, ensuring full compliance with the Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) for inland waterways and general marine safety codes. From gas locker venting to marine-grade circuit protection, we build for ultimate reliability on the water.

Our Conversion Framework

01.

Vessel Survey & Environmental Stripping

We assess the hull interior, clearing out degraded factory linings and identifying hidden moisture, osmosis, or hull corrosion. Crucially, we conduct a rigorous assessment of existing bilge pumps and safety systems.

02.

Marine Grade First-Fix & Corrosion Proofing

We run specialised, multi-strand marine wiring (which resists vibration-induced fracturing) and corrosion-resistant plumbing lines. All pathways are planned to prevent galvanic corrosion.

03.

Thermal & Acoustic Insulation

To eliminate the chronic marine issue of hull condensation, we install advanced, closed-cell insulation. This creates a thermal barrier that keeps the cabin bone-dry and quiet in all seasons.

04.

Bespoke Marine Joinery

Standard right angles rarely exist on a boat. Our technicians custom-build lightweight, moisture-resistant marine plywood cabinetry, custom galleys, and bulkheads designed to follow the natural lines of your hull.

05.

System Commissioning & Balancing

We install and certify high-end off-grid power hubs, heating systems, and appliances, ensuring weight is perfectly distributed to maintain your vessel’s natural center of buoyancy.
