Boat lift maintenance plans

A maintenance plan puts your lift on a schedule, so small wear gets caught on a routine visit instead of the morning of a trip.

Plans include two visits a year and are priced by the lift you have: a two-motor lift, a four-motor lift, or a jet ski lift. Tell us which one, and we can give you the price.

If a visit finds something

We tell you what we found and give you a free written estimate.

Nothing gets repaired without your OK.

Good to know

Salt water is hard on every part of a lift. Cables, fasteners, and motor housings corrode faster here than on fresh water, and a lift that sits unused for months can stiffen up.

Small wear is cheaper to deal with than a failure. A frayed strand caught on a routine visit is a cable swap; the same strand found when it parts can mean a boat in the water.
