Protection, restoration and a finish that lasts
Heavy Seas provides professional antifouling, yacht painting, polishing and hull-restoration services in Mallorca for yachts and superyachts.
Our marine technicians work with GRP, fibreglass, gelcoat, aluminium, steel and wooden hulls, providing tailored solutions according to the vessel’s condition, material and operational requirements.
From scheduled antifouling to complete hull restoration, our team can coordinate preparation, repairs, coatings and finishing as part of one project.
Antifouling & Protective Coatings
Professional antifouling and protective coating systems help preserve the underwater hull, reduce marine growth and maintain vessel performance over time.
Before application, our team assesses the existing coating system, hull material and surface condition to determine the most suitable preparation and treatment.
Depending on the vessel and project scope, works can include hull cleaning, removal of deteriorated coatings, surface preparation, local repairs, primers, barrier coats and professional antifouling application.
We work with motor yachts, superyachts, sailing yachts, tenders and support vessels, applying marine coating systems selected according to the hull and operating conditions.
Specialist services:
Barrier Coats & Primers
Protective primer and barrier systems can be applied where required to improve adhesion, isolate the substrate and provide additional protection beneath subsequent coating layers.
Yacht Painting & Finishing
Heavy Seas provides professional yacht painting and finishing services for hulls, topsides, superstructures and other exterior surfaces.
Projects can range from localised repairs and surface correction to complete refinishing programmes, with each process adapted to the vessel’s construction material, existing coating system and required finish.
Careful preparation, controlled application and detailed finishing help achieve a durable, consistent and high-quality result.
Specialist services:
Localised Paint Repairs
Targeted preparation, colour matching and refinishing for damaged or deteriorated areas where a complete repaint is not required.
Polishing & Surface Restoration
Professional polishing, oxidation removal and surface correction to restore gloss, colour depth and a clean, uniform finish.
Osmosis Treatment & Hull Restoration
Heavy Seas provides professional diagnosis and treatment for osmosis affecting GRP and fibreglass hulls.
Where required, the affected coating is removed and the substrate is treated, dried and rebuilt using suitable resins, fillers, primers and protective coating systems.
For more extensive projects, our team can coordinate osmosis treatment alongside fairing, painting, polishing and antifouling as one complete hull-restoration programme.
Specialist services:
Hull & Gelcoat Repairs
Localised repair of damaged GRP, fibreglass, gelcoat and coated surfaces to restore integrity and prepare the hull for subsequent finishing.
Complete Hull Restoration
A coordinated restoration process combining repairs, fairing, priming, painting, polishing and antifouling for vessels requiring more extensive refurbishment.
Frequently Asked Questions
About Hull Care & Finishing
The appropriate interval depends on the antifouling system, vessel usage, operating conditions and the condition of the existing coating. Our team can inspect the hull and recommend the most suitable maintenance schedule.
Yes. Antifouling, underwater-hull inspection and the associated preparation work are carried out with the vessel ashore.
Yes. Our team can assess the current finish and source or prepare a suitable colour match for localised repairs or wider repainting projects.
The timeframe depends on the size and condition of the vessel, the preparation required, the selected coating system and the necessary drying intervals. After assessing the project, our team can provide an estimated schedule for the work.
Yes. Antifouling and paintwork can be coordinated with other maintenance or refit work during a planned yard period, helping organise different technical services within the same project schedule.
