Repair your vessel afloat

Harbour & Voyage shiprepair

24/7 on-site and on-voyage shiprepairs

Our Harbour & Voyage ship repair service delivers high quality afloat repair and maintenance wherever your vessel operates. Rooted in Damen craftsmanship, our approach combines decades of experience with precision, care, and a commitment to doing the job right. When shipyard facilities are not required, time is critical, or schedules cannot be disrupted, H&V provides reliable solutions with minimal or even zero downtime.

Available 24/7 and quick to mobilise, Damen’s skilled H&V crews apply proven know how and hands on expertise to every task from fixing a leaking valve to over the side steelwork or installing new equipment. Work can continue while the vessel is afloat, at anchor, alongside the quay during cargo operations, or even while underway.

Typical projects range from repairs after minor collisions or stevedoring damage to work on windows and navigation masts, machinery and hydraulic repairs or upgrades, and maintenance of anchors and chains. Bow thrusters can be removed or installed at anchor, while below deck we carry out repairs to cargo holds, piping, cell guides, and even shaft generator bearings always with attention to detail and operational continuity.

When time is tight and your vessel needs immediate attention, you can rely on Damen craftsmanship in action. One call is all it takes: +31 6 300 085 82.
