Step One
In-Depth Client Consultation
When you contact Marine Customs to discuss your custom boat decking project, we'll start off by determining what your needs are and how we can fulfill them. We'll guide you on the best product choices while helping you choose colors, patterns, and any other customizations you may desire.
Step Two
We’ll Scan Your Boat
Our custom decking options start with a scan of your boat. We’ll come to you, or you can bring your boat to us (additional cost savings to you) in order to digitally template your boat for a precise measurement of all areas to be installed with our marine decking product.
Step Three
Your Boats Design Layout Gets Completed
Our CAD design team re-draws your boat from the digital scan we acquired while taking a number of design elements into consideration, such as but not limited to; offsets to be added beyond the areas of your boats textured non-skid, direction of the grains from our brushed textured finish when applicable, if and where any additional seams or breaks in the material need to be fabricated based on your boat’s design layout etc.
Step Four
Your Decking Gets Custom Fabricated
The fabrication process begins with our shop crew pulling all sheets required for your custom project and ensuring that all sheets meet our quality standards and are without any imperfections. From there, our CNC table is prepped with the appropriate tooling based on the requirements of your boat flooring project. Once all prefabrication inspection requirements have been met with satisfaction, your custom project gets cut and then moved to a second staging area for a final quality inspection.
Step Five
Your Boat Decking Gets Installed
Depending on the custom path you’ve chosen, you may have opted for us to complete the final installation, or you may have chosen to do the installation yourself. Either way and regardless of your installation path, the surface preparation is of the most importance as we must ensure that your boat’s deck is clean from all debris, oils, and dirt. Our installers use acetone to remove any potential dirt or oils left behind which can cause our decking to lose its adhesion over time. Once we’ve temporarily placed each part on your boats surface, our installers will double check for proper alignment and orientation of each part before permanently adhering the decking to your boat’s surface.
