MARINE CARPENTRY

Wood fails fast on yachts. Joints loosen, finishes crack, and moisture finds its way into places it shouldn’t be. Marine carpentry builds interiors that stay tight, dry, and structurally sound through years of operation.
At Alfa Trust, we run a full marine carpentry operation from our workshop in Dubai. We build custom cabinetry, install teak decking, and handle structural wood work for yacht owners, manufacturers and charter operators throughout the UAE.

OUR MARINE CARPENTRY SERVICES

Furniture and storage solutions are crafted to perfectly fit your yacht’s layout, built with marine-grade materials for smooth function and lasting performance.

Custom Cabinetry & Furniture

We design and build storage, seating, and furniture that maximizes your yacht’s interior layout. Every piece uses marine-grade materials selected for moisture resistance and durability. Joints are constructed to handle hull movement without loosening or cracking.

Decking & Flooring Installation and Repairs

Teak decking and interior flooring are installed using materials that provide grip, drainage, and long-term performance. Damaged planks are removed, subdecks treated, and new sections fitted with caulking that seals against water penetration effectively.

Wooden Handrails & Structural Details

Handrails, trim, and architectural elements are shaped from hardwoods chosen for strength and stability. Each component is sealed and mounted to resist moisture, flexing, and wear from regular use.

Interior Wood Finishing & Restoration

We refinish worn cabinetry, paneling, and trim throughout cabins and salons. Surfaces are sanded smooth, treated for damage, and protected with marine varnish that resists scratches and UV fading.

Structural Woodwork

Bulkheads, frames, and load-bearing supports are built using wood selected for strength and stability. These installations provide solid backing for hardware and interior systems and stay primed for long-term performance.

WHY MARINE-GRADE MATERIALS MATTER

Yacht carpentry demands different materials than furniture or construction work. Marine-grade plywood resists delamination when exposed to moisture. Hardwoods are selected for dimensional stability in humidity. Adhesives stay bonded under salt exposure. Fasteners won’t corrode.

These specifications cost more upfront but prevent failures that lead to expensive replacements down the line. We source marine-certified materials for all carpentry work of yachts to ensure longevity in UAE’s regional conditions.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT MARINE CARPENTRY

Small jobs finish within a week. Custom cabinetry and structural installations run three to six weeks based on complexity.

We remove damaged sections, treat affected areas for rot or mold, and install new wood matched to your existing finish.

Teak loses its natural oils over time and develops cracks that let water through. Regular cleaning, oiling, and caulk replacement keep your deck sealed and functional.

Marine-grade woodwork lasts 15 to 25 years with routine maintenance. Regular inspection and refinishing prevent moisture damage and extend service life.

We use wood with low moisture movement, apply proper sealants, and use joinery methods that allow controlled expansion without cracking.

Cost depends on materials, design detail, and installation requirements. We provide written quotes after surveying your vessel and finalizing the design
