Gangway Maintenance & Repairs

Gangway Repairs, for Yamba, Tweed Heads, Gold Coast, Brisbane, Bribie Island & Sunshine Coast

Your gangway is more than just a walkway—it’s a critical link between land and water. Whether you’re stepping onto a pontoon, boarding a boat, or accessing your jetty, that gangway needs to be safe, stable, and built to withstand the coastal environment.

At Micks Marine Maintenance, we specialise in gangway repairs and maintenance across the East Coast, from Northern NSW to the Sunshine Coast. We handle everything from minor patch-ups to full refurbishments and replacements, using quality marine-grade materials and expert craftsmanship.

Comprehensive Gangway Repairs

Gangways are constantly exposed to the elements—sun, saltwater, rain, and heavy foot traffic. Over time, this exposure causes wear and tear, quickly leading to safety risks if not addressed. That’s where we come in.

We offer comprehensive gangway repairs to restore both the function and safety of your gangway and pontoon:

• Timber to Aluminium Upgrades – Replace ageing timber decking or rot-affected plywood with durable marine-grade 4mm aluminium sheeting paired with marine carpet. Alternate options include perforated aluminium mesh or FRP Grating for long-lasting, low-maintenance results.
• Timber Jetty Deck Repairs – We can replace rotten or damaged timber decking with high-quality new timber, restoring strength and safety.
• Aluminium Deck Repairs – If your gangway’s aluminium decking is cracked, warped or worn, we’ll repair or replace it with precision.
• Marine Carpet Replacement – Restore grip and comfort with new marine carpet, perfect for slippery or faded walkways.
• Component Replacement – We replace rusted bolts, worn handrails, loose fasteners, worn bushes and broken guardrails to keep your gangway secure and compliant.
• Minor onsite welding repairs – We can carry out onsite welding repairs to fix minor cracks to your gangway. This service extends to the pontoon also with repairs to aluminium frame, pile brackets, coverplates, hatch covers and beyond.
• Accessory Installation – We can also fit kayak holders, cleats and other marine accessories on request.

Gangway Inspections as Part of Annual Servicing

Gangway issues aren’t always obvious—until something goes wrong. That’s why regular inspections are essential.

As part of our annual pontoon inspection service, we include a detailed gangway inspection to identify early signs of corrosion, misalignment, wear, or structural fatigue. These checks help prevent small problems from turning into major repair jobs—and protect the long-term performance of your entire marine access system.

We provide a full inspection report and advise on any immediate concerns or maintenance needs. If your gangway passes, great! If not, we’ll provide clear, cost-effective options to get it back to standard.

Full Gangway Refurbishments

A full gangway refurbishment might be the ideal solution if your gangway is still structurally sound but looking tired or dated.

We’ll upgrade the decking, fittings, surface treatments, and accessories—all while retaining the original framework where possible. This gives you the look and performance of a new gangway without the full cost of replacement. It’s a smart option for both residential and commercial pontoons.

New Gangway Installation – When Repairs Aren’t Enough

If your gangway is warped, rusted beyond repair, or no longer compliant with safety standards, we offer full aluminium gangway replacements using custom-fabricated marine-grade materials.

Each new aluminium gangway is designed for your specific site conditions, whether it’s exposed to swell in Tweed Heads, sitting above muddy banks in Ballina, or mounted to a floating pontoon in the canals of the Sunshine Coast. We ensure proper alignment, support, and longevity, so you don’t have to worry about it again for years.
