About
We are Barnacle Busters, Palm Beach County's largest and most trusted underwater yacht maintenance company, proudly serving the South Florida marine community since 1979. Founded by Lou Daniello Jr., our company has built an exceptional reputation over more than four decades of dedicated service to boat and yacht owners throughout Palm Beach, Broward, and Martin Counties. Our commitment to excellence and comprehensive underwater maintenance services has made us the go-to choice for discerning vessel owners who demand the highest standards of professional marine care.
Our primary specialty lies in comprehensive underwater hull and bottom cleaning services designed to keep your vessel performing at its peak efficiency. We understand that regular bottom cleaning is essential for maintaining optimal speed, fuel efficiency, and handling characteristics while preventing costly marine growth buildup. Our skilled team of fully trained, experienced, and certified professional divers utilizes advanced cleaning techniques and specialized equipment to remove barnacles, algae, and other marine growth from your vessel's hull. We also provide hydraulic underwater hull cleaning services for larger vessels and yachts over 80 feet, ensuring that even the most substantial boats receive the thorough attention they deserve. Our monthly maintenance programs offer exceptional value, as many of our clients report fuel savings that far exceed the cost of our services.
Beyond our core cleaning services, we offer a comprehensive range of underwater maintenance and repair solutions. Our propeller services include changes, reconditioning, and installation of new propellers, along with professional PropSpeed application to reduce marine growth and improve performance. We perform zinc inspection and replacement services to protect your vessel's metal components from harmful electrolysis damage. Our underwater inspection and photography services provide detailed documentation of your vessel's condition, while our underwater recovery services help retrieve lost articles from the water. We also handle miscellaneous underwater repairs and inspections, making us your complete solution for all subsurface maintenance needs.
Our extensive service area covers the prime boating regions of South Florida, with dedicated phone lines for Palm Beach County, Broward County, and Martin County. Our headquarters are strategically located at 10456 Riverside Dr. in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, positioning us perfectly to serve major marinas and waterways throughout the region. We service vessels at popular locations including Jupiter, Admirals Cove, Old Port Cove, North Palm Beach, and Palm Harbor Marina. Our large fleet of fully equipped service vehicles enables us to bring professional underwater maintenance directly to your dock or marina slip, providing unparalleled convenience for our clients.
What sets us apart is our team of certified professional divers who bring years of specialized experience to every job. Our divers undergo continuous training to stay current with the latest underwater maintenance techniques and safety protocols. We maintain a fully staffed office Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, ensuring reliable communication and scheduling coordination. Understanding that marine emergencies don't follow business hours, we provide 24/7 emergency after-hours service availability for urgent weekend and evening needs, giving our clients complete peace of mind.
We believe in building long-term relationships with our clients through consistent, reliable service and transparent communication. Our monthly service programs are specifically designed to be more cost-effective than per-visit rates while ensuring your vessel receives regular attention and inspection. During each service visit, we conduct thorough inspections of your vessel's entire underwater portion, checking for potential problems and maintaining detailed service records. This proactive approach helps identify issues before they become costly repairs, ultimately saving our clients time and money while maximizing their enjoyment on the water.
