WARRANTY SURVEYS

Prior to the warranty on a vessel expiring, it is helpful to commission a Warranty Survey to identify and list any defects which should be rectified under the vessel’s warranty.

A detailed examination of the vessel will be made subject to a scope of survey agreed with our client and defects listed together with recommendations for their rectification.

Prepared by a dispassionate and qualified professional, the report will accordingly carry a different weight than an owner’s unsupported assertions when it comes to having the issues accepted under warranty by the builder.

Our experience of defects includes defective FRP mouldings, gelcoat, paint coatings, mechanical defects, inadequate range, unexpectedly high fuel consumption, stability and freeboard issues, cosmetic defects and sound level issues to name a few.
