Safe enjoyment though dilligent surveying

I really am very impressed with the quality, thoroughness, depth and professionalism of the survey you carried out on the boat last week.
There probably isn't that much to do with boats with which we can ever feel that we have achieved great value but I truly feel in the case of your survey that on this occasion you have provided just that.

We can tailor our surveying services to meet your particular requirements.

We can usually survey your boat within a week of your enquiry, and can sometimes survey the boat on the day following your enquiry, diary permitting. We are also happy to work on weekends.

We want you to understand the survey report we have produced, and as such we will call you to talk through our findings and recommendations before we send you the report. This is to ensure that it is crystal clear to you what the major implications of the survey findings are before you get immersed into the detail of the report.

Please call us on (07901) 550408 for a quote and to book a survey or fill in our enquiry form on line.

Maple Marine work from our bases in the Isle of Wight, the Solent, London, the Thames, and Surrey, covering Hampshire, Surrey, London, Kent, Sussex and the Thames Valley.
