The ship does not wait
Cruise and ferry refits compress multiple disciplines into port days with evolving access as cabins release. Carval Interior Lining plans marine packages around inductions, hot-work rules, and material approvals that differ from commercial building codes on land.
We stage materials through the gangway with barcoded deliveries, pre-cut linings where possible, and crew leads who speak the language of the ship superintendent—not just the head contractor on the wharf.
Survey and documentation
Every replaced lining type must trace to approved certificates. We photograph concealed fixings before closure and file updates in the vessel turnover folder. Surveyors remember contractors who made their job easy.
Our viewpoint
Maritime work is specialist, not a land fit-out transported by truck. Owners should award lining packages to teams with demonstrated port turnaround references, not the lowest bidder learning marine rules on the job.
The sailing calendar sets the deadline—not the land programme.

Material certificates, penetration seals, and photos of concealed fixings—not verbal assurances.
