Can’t tell you about their good workmanship or friendly staff. Why?because they prefer to Ghost you rather than tell you your job is to small. I think that is the reason anyway, several weeks ago I rang to try and get our new to us 43ft sail yacht antifouled and thru hulls done. Spoke to them and they said, send through the survey and we will get back to you next week. I rang and left message in the middle of that week but no response and never got a response. It wasted my time waiting when I thought we were moving forward. I get that everyone is busy in the industry but so are your customers. I simple phone call to say the job is to small for you is all it takes, simple communication saves everybody’s time.

This is a review for Philbrook's Metal Fabrication Shop
(2079 Amelia Ave, Sidney, BC V8L 3Z8)
I'm sure the rest of the operation is great, I just dealt with the fab shop.
After shopping around quite a bit and getting crazy quotes and timelines for a job, these folks did it immediately for *way* less than the others and did a bang-up job.
A get-'er-done attitude coupled with effortless skill and experience. What a relief!
Highly recommended!
Thanks guys!

Simply a pleasure working with the team at Philbrooks. We purchased a beloved woodie Wahl Trawler from Van Isle Yachts and she needed some inevitable assistance in her seaworthiness. Before the sale Drew at Philbrooks made it a point to come meet me personally and let me know what they intended to do and when. After we purchased we discovered a leaking through hull valve that needed replacing before we relocated the boat to US waters. The team at Philbrooks was amazingly accommodating, on short notice at that, and made clean work of the process. We will definitely be back.
