Boat Ramp Cleaning

What This Service Involves

Public and private boat ramps develop a treacherous algae film where the concrete meets the waterline in our damp climate. Our cleaning restores traction to the ramp surface so trailers and tow vehicles can grip during launch and retrieval. We focus on the transition zone where growth is thickest and footing is riskiest. Safer ramps mean fewer accidents and smoother launches all season.

Benefits

Restores traction for trailers and tow vehicles; reduces launch and retrieval accidents; clears the slick waterline transition zone; improves safety for everyone using the ramp; keeps the launch area presentable

Our Process

1) Assess the ramp and mark the slickest zones; 2) Apply cleaner to break down the algae film; 3) Pressure wash the ramp surface for restored traction; 4) Rinse and contain debris away from the water

What Affects the Cost

Ramp length and width; thickness of algae buildup; tidal or water-level access windows; runoff containment near the shoreline; frequency of maintenance

Best Time of Year

Boat ramps should be cleaned in spring before peak launching and again mid-season as summer algae returns.
