The Smart Choice
Why Professional Fiberglass Services Matter
DIY approaches to fiberglass repair often use inferior patch kits that can leave a weak bond, visible imperfections, and limited lifespan. Professional repair addresses not only surface symptoms but underlying structural concerns—ensuring repairs hold up to water, chemicals, UV exposure, and mechanical stress.
Choosing a licensed repair company like Hilles means correct substrate prep, compatible resins, controlled curing, and expert color matching for long-lasting outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you repair any fiberglass item?
In most cases, yes. Our expertise covers bathtubs, showers, pools, boats, RVs, trailers, industrial panels, and more. Extremely degraded or pervasively delaminated structures may require full replacement—our inspection will clarify the best path.
Will color-matched gelcoat look perfect?
We use blending techniques to closely match existing colors. However, older surfaces may have weathered differently, so minor variation can occur. Our color matching maximizes visual continuity.
How durable are repairs?
Properly prepared and executed fiberglass laminate and gelcoat repairs are highly durable. Structural repairs restore load-bearing properties, while gelcoat topcoats resist UV and chemical breakdown when maintained.
How far out are you booking?
Scheduling varies by season. Summer pool work and spring boat repairs fill quickly; call (717) 653-0265 to check current availability or request emergency assistance.
