Railings, handrails and cappings are the wood you hold every time you move around the deck. They take the sun, the salt and the knocks, and they are the first thing people notice when they step aboard.
We build new railings and handrails to fit, and repair or refinish the ones you have: teak cappings, trim and exterior details. Pieces are made in the workshop and fitted on board, at your berth.
Wood shows wear long before it fails. These are the signs we look for on an inspection: tick the ones you recognise and they go into your message, so we know where to start.

Our marine carpentry workshop in Split
In our own workshop in Split we make everything that doesn't have to be built on board: synthetic teak panels, passerelles, handrails and wooden accessories. Boats don't come here, but you are welcome to drop by, see samples and talk the job through.

We come to your berth, afloat or ashore
Your boat stays where it is, in the marina or on a dry berth, and we bring the tools and materials to it, anywhere from Zadar to Dubrovnik. Teak and synthetic decks are fitted, repaired and refinished on board, so you never have to arrange transport.

FAQ
What owners ask us most
Straight answers to what owners ask us most. If yours isn't here, ask us directly.
01Can you copy an existing piece?
Yes. We take a template, or use the original as a pattern, and make a new piece to match.
02Repair or replace?
If the wood is sound, a repair and a new finish are usually enough. If it is cracked through or rotten around the fixings, a new piece is the safer choice. We will tell you which after a look.
03Is the work done on the boat?
Fitting is done on board, at your berth. Larger pieces are made in the workshop first, so time on the boat is kept short.
04Which wood is best for boat handrails?
Teak is our first choice for anything that lives outside, because it lasts in salt and sun. Iroko, mahogany and oak are good alternatives, depending on the look you want.
05How much do new handrails or railings cost?
It depends on the length, the wood and the shape of the pieces. After a look at the boat, you get a written quote with the full price.
06Do you make teak cappings and trim?
Yes. We make and fit teak cappings, trim and other exterior details, and repair and refinish the ones already on board.
07How do I keep wooden handrails looking good?
Keep the finish intact. A light sand and a fresh coat of varnish before it starts to crack keeps the wood protected far longer than waiting until it peels.
