By scheduling a service, paying a deposit, providing access to a vessel, or allowing Royal Boat Detail to begin work, the client agrees to these Terms and Conditions. Royal Boat Detail reserves the right to update these terms at any time.
​
2. Estimates & Pricing
All quotes provided online, by phone, or via text are estimates based on the information provided by the client. Final pricing may change after in-person inspection if additional labor is required due to:

Excessive staining or mold

Extreme dirt or neglect

Inaccurate vessel size
Boat length is measured by Length Overall (LOA), which includes:

Swim platforms

Bow pulpits

Note: Trailer cleaning is not included unless explicitly added to the service.
​
3. Scheduling & Deposits
-
A 20% non-refundable deposit is required to secure an appointment.
-
Clients must provide 48 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule.
-
Appointments canceled within 48 hours, or situations where the crew cannot access the vessel, may result in forfeiture of the deposit.
4. Weather & Rescheduling
Because marine detailing is often performed outdoors, Royal Boat Detail may reschedule services due to:
-
Rain or storms
-
High winds
-
Unsafe working conditions
-
Extreme temperatures
We will coordinate a new appointment as soon as possible.
5. Payment
Full payment is due immediately upon completion of service. Invoices unpaid after 48 hours may incur:

1.5% monthly interest on the remaining balance
Royal Boat Detail reserves the right to pursue collection efforts or place a mechanic’s lien on the vessel where permitted by law.

Ensuring legal access to the vessel
-
Obtaining marina permissions if required
-
Providing gate access or dock information
-
Removing personal belongings and valuables

Pre-existing damage
-
Failing gelcoat or paint

Oxidized surfaces

Loose decals or graphics

Speakers, gauges, switches, or lighting systems
9. Anti-Fouling Paint & Bilge Cleaning
-
Royal Boat Detail does not clean below the waterline when anti-fouling paint is present.
-
Bilge cleaning is cosmetic only. We do not pump or dispose of contaminated or hazardous fluids.
10. Ceramic Protection
Ceramic protection products provide enhanced surface protection and gloss but require proper maintenance. Environmental conditions, vessel usage, and washing habits may affect longevity. The specific lifespan of coatings cannot be guaranteed.

Unstable boat positioning

Hazardous materials
