Pontoon Boat Cleaning at Your Dock, Lift, or Driveway

More seats, more carpet, more fun, and more to clean. We detail pontoons where they're parked, starting at $399.

Pontoons Are Built for Hanging Out, and That Shows

A pontoon is basically a floating living room. It's the boat for sunset cruises, sandbar afternoons, and taking the whole family out at once. That also means more seats, more carpet, more cupholders, and more places for sunscreen, spilled drinks, pollen, and wet towels to end up.

Our pontoon boat cleaning service comes to you, whether the pontoon is on a lift at your dock, in a marina slip, or on a trailer at home. We bring our own water tank and generator, so it doesn't matter what the dock has.

What We Focus On With a Pontoon

Vinyl seating and lounges

Wraparound seating and rear lounges add up to a lot of vinyl. It picks up body oils, sunscreen, and the gray-green spotting that humid Carolina summers are known for. We clean the tops, seams, and sides. Lift-up seats and storage areas get attention too, where they're accessible.

Deck carpet or flooring

Pontoon carpet takes wet feet, dropped snacks, and leaves and pollen blowing in from the shoreline. We clean the deck surface and work into the corners along the fencing, where debris collects.

Console, tables, and cupholders

Helm consoles, drink holders, and fold-down tables get sticky fast. We clean them so the boat feels fresh when guests step aboard.

Fencing and exterior panels

The rails and panels are what everyone sees from the dock. They collect pollen, water spots, and the occasional bird visit, and we clean them as part of the exterior.

Pricing for Pontoon Cleaning

Pontoons are detailed under our Marine Full Refresh, a complete interior and exterior boat cleaning.

About the tubes and aluminum

Pontoon tubes (logs) and bare aluminum are their own category. Restoring the shine on oxidized or stained tubes is specialty work, and it isn't part of the Marine Full Refresh. If that's on your list, mention it when you reach out. We'll look at it and tell you straight whether it's something we can take on, and we'll quote it separately.

The same goes for anything that goes beyond cleaning, such as badly faded or cracked vinyl. We can't restore damaged material through cleaning, and we won't pretend otherwise.

Getting the Most From a Pontoon Detail

  • Clear out loose gear. Pull life jackets, towels, coolers, and toys out of the seat storage so we can get into it.
  • Send photos. A few shots of the seating, deck, and any problem spots help us quote accurately and bring the right supplies.
  • Tell us where it's parked. Lift, slip, or trailer all work. If it's at a marina, check that they allow outside detailers.
  • Think about timing. Cleaning before the first big weekend of the season, or before the cover goes on in the fall, gets the most out of the visit.

Our boat detailing page covers runabouts, fishing boats, and other boats, plus more on seasonal timing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to clean a pontoon boat?

Pontoons fall under our Marine Full Refresh, which starts at $399. Pricing can vary by size and condition, so we confirm your exact quote before any work begins.

Do you brighten or polish pontoon tubes?

Tube and aluminum restoration is specialty work and isn't part of the Marine Full Refresh. If you're interested, tell us when you reach out. We'll look at your tubes, tell you honestly whether we can take it on, and quote it separately.

Can you clean my pontoon while it's on the lift?

Usually, yes. We can work at your dock, on a lift, in a marina slip where outside detailers are allowed, or on a trailer at home. We bring our own water and power.

Will cleaning remove the black spots on my pontoon seats?

Surface mildew spots often clean up well. Spotting that has soaked into older vinyl may only lighten, so we don't guarantee complete stain removal. We'll tell you what to expect before we start.

Do I need to be there during the detail?

Not always. We need safe access to the boat and to know about any gate codes or dock rules. We'll work out the details with you when you book.
