Our winters are mild, but one hard freeze can crack a block or a lower unit that still has water in it. Owners who wait until the first cold snap often find every mechanic booked.

Sterndrives and inboards
Drain or antifreeze the block and manifolds, fog, change oil and filters, check bellows and drive.

Common questions
What does boat winterization cost in Hampton Roads?
It depends on the engine count, engine type and how the boat is stored. Published local mobile rates we have seen start around $200 plus parts for a basic single outboard. The mechanic gives you the actual price before any work starts.
When should I winterize my boat in Virginia Beach or Norfolk?
Many owners in Hampton Roads book in late October or November, before the first hard freeze. If you keep using the boat through the winter, a mechanic can talk you through partial steps instead.
Do mechanics come to marinas and slips?
Yes, the providers we refer to are mobile. Some marinas have their own rules about outside contractors, so tell us the marina name and the mechanic will check.
Who actually does the work?
An independent local mechanic. We are a referral service, not a repair shop. The mechanic sets the price, schedules with you directly, and is responsible for the work.
Is it free to request a quote?
Yes. There is no charge to you for sending a request. You only pay the mechanic if you choose to hire them.
Do you handle RVs and campers too?
Yes. See our mobile RV repair page for RV winterization, roof, electrical and trailer work.
