Hull cleaning, dock pressure washing, and seawall restoration for waterfront properties throughout Palm Beach County. We remove barnacles, algae, and marine growth so your boat performs better and your dock looks like new.
Palm Beach County’s warm, brackish waters are ideal for boating — and ideal for marine growth. Barnacles, algae, and oyster shells start colonizing your hull within weeks of it hitting the water. Left unchecked, that growth increases drag, reduces fuel efficiency by 10 to 30 percent, and can damage your gel coat and bottom paint.
Docks take a beating too. The combination of constant water exposure, humidity, UV radiation, and tidal splashing creates the perfect environment for algae, mildew, and fish stains. Wood docks can become dangerously slippery, and composite decking loses its color and develops black mold streaks. Seawalls accumulate tide-line staining, barnacle buildup, and green algae that make your waterfront look neglected.
Whether your boat sits on a lift along the Intracoastal in Jupiter, at a slip in North Palm Beach, or at a marina in West Palm Beach, regular cleaning protects your investment and keeps your vessel performing at its best. Pressure Wash of Palm Beach provides professional boat, dock, and seawall cleaning for waterfront homeowners and marinas across the county.
Marine growth on your hull is more than cosmetic. Barnacles and algae create drag that forces your engine to work harder, burning more fuel and reducing top speed. A heavily fouled hull can increase fuel consumption by 30 percent or more. Regular cleaning extends the life of your bottom paint and prevents hard growth from bonding permanently to the gel coat.
We clean hulls in the water — no need to haul out. Using soft brushes and appropriate pressure for your specific bottom paint, we remove barnacles, slime, algae, and waterline scum without stripping your anti-fouling coating. We inspect your running gear, zincs, and through-hulls during every cleaning and report any issues we find.
Algae-covered docks are slippery and unsafe. Wood docks develop green and black buildup that eats into the grain if left untreated. Composite docks like Trex and TimberTech lose their color under layers of mildew and fish stains.
We adjust pressure and technique based on your dock material. Wood gets a lower-PSI wash with a surface cleaner to prevent splintering. Composite decking gets a careful clean that restores the original color without damaging the cap layer. Concrete docks and boat ramps get full-power treatment to strip oil stains, algae, and embedded grime.
Seawalls along the Intracoastal Waterway accumulate a visible tide line of barnacles, algae, and mineral deposits. This buildup traps moisture against the concrete, accelerating erosion and shortening the life of your seawall. Regular cleaning removes this layer and lets you inspect the surface for cracks or structural concerns early.
We clean concrete, cap rock, and vinyl sheet pile seawalls throughout Palm Beach County. For older or more fragile walls, we reduce pressure to avoid damage while still removing the buildup effectively.
We evaluate your boat, dock, and seawall condition. You get a clear price based on size, material, and growth level before we start.
We clean below the waterline with soft brushes matched to your bottom paint. Barnacles, algae, and slime removed without damaging your coating.
Pressure adjusted for your material — wood, composite, or concrete. We strip algae, mildew, and stains to restore the original surface.
We check zincs, through-hulls, running gear, and dock hardware. Any issues get flagged so you can address them before they become expensive repairs.
Hull cleaning pricing depends on the size of the vessel, the amount of marine growth, and whether the boat is in the water or on a lift. A typical 20 to 30-foot boat runs $150 to $350 for a standard hull cleaning. Larger vessels and heavy barnacle buildup cost more. Call (561) 603-3499 for a free estimate.
In Palm Beach County’s warm waters, marine growth accumulates fast. We recommend hull cleaning every 4 to 6 weeks during summer and every 6 to 8 weeks in winter. Boats kept in the Intracoastal or at marinas in Jupiter and North Palm Beach tend to accumulate growth faster due to water temperature and salinity.
Yes. We pressure wash composite, wood, and concrete docks to remove algae, mildew, fish stains, and general grime. For seawalls, we use appropriate pressure levels based on the material — lower PSI for older concrete and cap rock, higher for reinforced seawalls. Pressure Wash of Palm Beach cleans docks and seawalls throughout Palm Beach County.
No. We use soft brushes and appropriate pressure specifically designed for painted hulls. Our cleaning method removes barnacles, algae, and slime without stripping your anti-fouling paint. We also check the condition of your bottom paint during each cleaning and let you know when it’s time for a new coat.
Yes. We perform in-water hull cleaning for boats on lifts, at docks, or moored at marinas throughout Palm Beach County. In-water cleaning is the most common method — it avoids the cost and hassle of hauling out. We can also clean boats on trailers or in dry storage.
We clean at both. Many of our clients have private docks along the Intracoastal Waterway in Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens, North Palm Beach, and West Palm Beach. We also service boats at local marinas. Pressure Wash of Palm Beach works wherever your boat is kept.
Beyond hull cleaning, we wash the deck, topsides, gunwales, rub rails, and transom. We remove salt buildup, water spots, bird droppings, and fish residue. For a full detail, we can also clean canvas, cushions, and T-tops. Ask about our complete boat wash packages.
Most residential dock cleanings take 1 to 3 hours depending on the size and condition. A standard 30 to 40-foot dock with moderate algae buildup typically takes about 2 hours. Seawall cleaning adds 1 to 2 hours depending on the linear footage. We work efficiently so you can get back to enjoying your waterfront.
