Lake Murray, Lake Wateree, Lake Monticello, the Saluda, the Broad — South Carolina's lakes and waterways are some of the best in the Southeast, and keeping your watercraft running the way it should means more time on the water and less time waiting at a marina for a service appointment that's three weeks out and costs more than it should. Ironclad brings professional boat, pontoon, and jet ski services directly to your dock, your slip, your storage facility, or your driveway — eliminating the hassle of trailering your watercraft across town and leaving it somewhere for days while you wait. Our team handles everything from routine motor tune-ups and propeller changes to deck and carpet replacements, marine stereo and electronics installations, jet ski impeller service, and trailer repairs. What truly sets Ironclad apart on the water is our welding and fabrication capability — we can locate and weld leaks in pontoon tubes, extract standing water from flooded tubes, and perform pontoon to tritoon conversions that transform how your boat handles and performs.

Services We Offer

Boat & Pontoon Motor Tune-Ups & Maintenance A boat motor that hasn't been properly serviced is a boat that lets you down at the worst possible moment — usually when you're a mile from the dock with a full cooler and a boat full of people who were expecting a great day on the water. Ironclad provides tune-up and maintenance services for outboard and inboard motors across all major brands including Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, Johnson, Evinrude, Volvo, and MerCruiser — keeping your engine running cleanly, efficiently, and reliably through every season. Our maintenance services include spark plug replacement, fuel filter changes, oil and gear lube changes, water pump impeller inspection, thermostat checks, throttle and shift cable lubrication, and the general servicing that keeps a marine engine performing the way it should. We come to you — working at your dock, your slip, or your driveway so you don't have to haul your boat to a marina and wait weeks for a service appointment that costs twice as much.

Propeller Service & Performance Modifications The right propeller makes a measurable difference in how your boat accelerates, tops out, and handles at cruise — and a damaged or incorrectly sized prop is leaving performance on the water every time you run it. Ironclad handles propeller changes, upgrades, and replacements across all major motor brands, helping you select the right pitch and diameter for your hull, motor, and intended use whether that's pulling skiers, cruising efficiently, or maximizing top speed. Beyond propeller work we also offer performance modifications that extract more capability from your existing setup — including timing adjustments, fuel system cleaning, and the tuning work that makes a noticeable real-world difference in how your boat performs without requiring a new motor.

Boat & Pontoon Deck Upgrades & Repairs A worn, stained, or damaged deck doesn't just look bad — it affects how much you enjoy being on the water and what the boat is worth when it's time to sell. Ironclad handles boat and pontoon deck upgrades and repairs including full carpet replacement, deck board repair and replacement, and the surface work that restores a tired deck to a condition you're proud to show off. We work on both traditional boat decks and pontoon boat decking, handling the removal of old material, surface prep, and installation of new carpet or composite decking material that holds up to the UV exposure, moisture, and foot traffic that a boat deck takes over a season. If your pontoon's deck has seen better days or your fishing boat's carpet has reached the point of no return, a deck refresh is one of the most cost effective ways to dramatically improve your time on the water.

Marine Stereo & Electronics Installation A quality sound system on the water hits differently than it does anywhere else — and a Bluetooth-connected, weather-resistant marine stereo with properly placed speakers changes the atmosphere of a day on the lake in a way that's hard to overstate once you've experienced it. Ironclad installs and upgrades marine stereo systems and electronics on boats and pontoons of all types, handling head unit replacement, marine-rated speaker installation, amplifier mounting and wiring, subwoofer installation, antenna upgrades, and the waterproof wiring and connection work that ensures everything functions reliably in the marine environment. We also install fish finders, GPS chartplotters, depth finders, and other marine electronics — running wiring cleanly through the boat so the finished installation looks factory rather than improvised. Given our low voltage wiring expertise and electronics installation background, marine audio and electronics is a natural extension of what we already do on land.

Pontoon Tube Repair & Water Removal A pontoon that's riding low in the water, listing to one side, or handling sluggishly has water in the tubes — and water in the tubes means there's a leak somewhere that isn't going to fix itself. Ironclad diagnoses pontoon tube flooding, locates the source of the leak, extracts the water from affected tubes, and welds the leak closed so the tube holds air and the boat rides the way it's supposed to. Pontoon tube leaks are more common than most owners realize, and catching one early makes the repair significantly simpler and less expensive than dealing with a tube that's been slowly filling for an entire season. If your pontoon feels like it's working harder than it used to or you've noticed it sitting differently in the water, a tube inspection from Ironclad is the right first step before the problem gets worse.

Pontoon to Tritoon Conversion A tritoon — a three-tube pontoon configuration — delivers a fundamentally different on-water experience than a standard two-tube pontoon. Better stability, higher top speeds, improved handling in rough water, and the ability to run a larger motor without the performance penalty that comes from pushing a two-tube hull through the water at higher speeds. Ironclad performs pontoon to tritoon conversions, fabricating and installing a center tube assembly that transforms your existing pontoon into a tritoon configuration. This is exactly the kind of work that leverages Ironclad's welding and fabrication capabilities in a way that almost no general marine service provider can match — custom metal fabrication, structural welding, and precision fitting that turns a good pontoon into a great one. If you've been eyeing tritoon boats at the marina and wondering if there's a more affordable path to that experience, a conversion on your existing pontoon is worth a serious look.

Jet Ski Tune-Ups, Maintenance & Impeller Service A jet ski that's losing top speed, running rough, or struggling to get on plane is usually telling you it needs service — and putting it off means the problem gets worse and the repair gets more expensive. Ironclad provides jet ski tune-up and maintenance services for all major personal watercraft brands, including spark plug replacement, oil changes where applicable, fuel system cleaning, wear ring inspection, and the general servicing that keeps a PWC performing at its best. We also perform impeller replacements — one of the most common and most impactful jet ski repairs — restoring the thrust and acceleration that a worn or damaged impeller has been quietly stealing from your ride. Like our boat motor services, we come to you — working at your dock or driveway so you're not adding a trailer haul and a marina wait to an already frustrating situation.

Boat & Pontoon Trailer Service & Repair Your trailer is the part of your boating setup that gets the least attention and causes the most problems when something goes wrong — a blown tire on the highway, a corroded wheel bearing that seizes on a boat ramp, or a cracked frame weld that's been flexing for two seasons waiting to let go. Ironclad provides trailer service and repair for boat and pontoon trailers including tire changes and replacements, wheel bearing inspection and repacking, light and wiring repair, and structural welding repairs for cracked or damaged trailer frames, tongue assemblies, and bunker brackets. Given our welding and fabrication capabilities, trailer frame repairs and structural reinforcement are work we're particularly well equipped to handle — and catching a cracked weld before it fails completely is significantly less expensive and less dangerous than dealing with a trailer failure on a busy highway or a crowded boat ramp.

Mobile Marine Service — We Come to You Every service Ironclad offers for boats, pontoons, and jet skis is available as a mobile service — we come to your dock, your slip, your storage facility, or your driveway, bringing the tools and parts needed to get the work done where your watercraft lives rather than requiring you to haul it somewhere and wait. For pontoon owners especially, mobile service is a meaningful practical advantage — avoiding the hassle of launching, trailering, and retrieving a pontoon just for a service appointment saves a half day of effort and keeps the boat in the water where it belongs during the season. Call or message Ironclad to schedule mobile marine service at your location and we'll come to you ready to work.
