Custom Marine Fabrication Built to last in Virginia Beach, Virginia
Every boat has a job to do, and no two owners define that job the same way. At Marine Fabrication, we turn that vision into welded aluminum you can lean on, serving Virginia and the surrounding coastal communities. More than 20 years of hands-on fabrication experience go into every custom T-top, boat seat, Cobia fishing tower, repair job, and hardware accessory we build. We are owner-operated, so the person who quotes your project is also the person shaping the metal. Bring us a sketch, a photo, or a rough idea, and we will build it right the first time. Quick estimates, straight answers.

Our Services

Custom T-Tops
A T-top should shed sun and spray without rattling at cruising speed. We fabricate frames to your deck layout, welding aluminum tube that stays tight through years of offshore pounding and salt air.

Cobia Fishing Towers
Spotting fish starts with height and a platform you trust. We design and install Cobia towers with solid mounting points, clear sightlines, and controls positioned so you can run and hunt at once.
Marine Accessories & Hardware
Small hardware decides how a boat feels in use. We fabricate rod holders, grab rails, cup holders, brackets, ladders, and custom mounts in marine aluminum, machined and welded to fit your exact rigging.
Aluminum Boat Welding and Repair
Cracked aluminum towers, damaged railings, and failing welds rarely happen at a convenient time. Bring us the damaged aluminum components, and we'll handle expert welding, repair, and reinforcement, restoring your boat's structure with lasting strength and reliability.

Frequently asked questions
What types of boats do you build custom T-tops for along the Virginia Beach coast?
We fabricate T-tops for center consoles, bay boats, walkarounds, and skiffs of nearly any size. Each frame is measured against your actual deck and console rather than pulled from a stock catalog.
How long does a typical custom fabrication project take from approval to installation?
Smaller accessory work often finishes within a week. Full towers and complete T-top builds usually run three to six weeks depending on material lead times, finish choices, and how busy the season is.
Are your welders certified, and what does 6G-TIG certification mean for my boat?
Yes. 6G is the hardest pipe welding position to qualify in, tested at a fixed angle from every direction. It means our welds hold sound penetration where the joint geometry is unforgiving.
Can you match new fabrication work to hardware or seating already installed on my vessel?
We can. Send photos or bring the boat in, and we will match tube diameter, finish, mounting style, and upholstery so the new work looks original rather than added on later.
Do you work with both aluminum and stainless steel for marine repairs?
Both, along with the correct filler and prep for each. Material choice depends on load, location on the vessel, galvanic considerations, and whether you want polished stainless or a lighter aluminum structure.
Marine Fabrication in Virginia Beach is a family-owned, owner-operated business with over 15 years of experience.
