At Fonz's Marine Services Inc. we offer the highest quality marine & yacht maintenance for your vessels needs. We specialize primarily in fire, A 60, thermal, sound, pipe insulation, and all other marine grade yacht insulations. Along with engine room deckplates, and perforated or solid aluminum engine room walls and ceilings. Insulation is an essential part of a vessels infrastructure varying from fireproofing bulkheads, insulating overheads and partitions, soundproofing generator panels, and re-insulating the pipe insulation on the chilled water lines & chiller plants. FMS leads the industry in specialized HVAC pipe insulation / lagging on the chilled water lines, fan coil units or air handlers, chillers, hot water lines, etc. To many times failing pipe insulation goes unnoticed since many of the lines run out of sight in walls, overheads, and floors. Repeatedly we have seen neglected insulation fail causing condensation to leak through out the vessel, which results in water damage to finished wood, overheads, carpets, etc, mold growth, leaking on to electrical components causing thousands in damages. Improperly insulated chilled chilled water lines allows condensation to drip throughout a yacht or vessel and pool in areas unnoticed until its too late and the damage is done. We all know yachts & boats are breeding ground for potentially toxic and hazardous mold growth due cool temperatures & dark enclosed areas such as tech spaces, behind cabinets, among other storage areas. Many companies the claim to specialize in mold remediation on yachts are simply temporarily treating a system instead of getting to the root cause which is failing/leaking pipe insulation that allows the condensation to drip creating a perfect environment for mold, respiratory issues, infections, etc.
All properly installed pipe insulation should last about 7 to 10 years or be done at each refit. Unfortunately many vessels do not have their pipe insulation installed correctly. If your pipe insulation is touching any structure or has anything touching/compressing it, it will cause the insulation to prematurely fail. At Fonz’s Marine Services we do not simply just replace the insulation, but get to the root cause of the failure and fix it. We strive for the highest quality, skill, and dedication to work, perfection and nothing less.

Dive Services
Some of our dive services offered are monthly hull cleaning, emergency cleaning, salvaging, and inspections. Please see our "Dive Services" page full the full list of services offered. By cleaning the hull of your vessel you prevent damage to the hull structure and while increasing the longevity of your bottom paint. Your bottom paint essential not only for ascetics, but to prevent growth from eating away and embedding within your hull.
