Boat Hull Remediation Services by Mold.ca
Properly maintaining your boat’s hull is essential for performance, longevity, and environmental compliance. At Mold.ca, we specialize in professional boat hull remediation, including the removal of old antifouling paint, surface preparation, and the application of new protective coatings. Whether you own a sailboat or powerboat, our expert team ensures that all work is carried out with precision, safety, and adherence to government regulations.
Professional Antifouling Paint Removal
Antifouling paint, designed to prevent marine growth, must be removed properly to avoid environmental contamination and ensure a smooth, effective reapplication. We use orbital sanding equipment combined with commercial-grade HEPA vacuum systems, capturing 99% of sanded material without the need for a large containment unit. Our advanced approach minimizes dust and debris, making the process cleaner and more efficient.

We offer a full range of services tailored to your boat’s specific needs:
- Commercial Powerwashing – High-powered cleaning to remove surface grime and residue before remediation begins (requires accessible water source).
- VC17 Paint Removal – Government-mandated removal of VC17 antifouling paint, using 120-grit sanding pads to effectively strip up to three layers of paint below the waterline.
