Experience You Can Trust

  • "I had an excellent experience with Vlaco and am hoping to work with you on multiple projects. I would say Vlaco has been the best marine contractor we have worked with since getting into the marina space in 2021. Our specific scope of work included a high level of trust and Vlaco delivered and completed a very efficient project. It is a huge benefit when the contractor thinks like the owner."

  • "Vlaco Marine, from start to finish, was honest, upfront, and cared about the final outcome of the project. They were dedicated to ensuring that the process went smoothly, on time, and on budget. Vlaco placed our organization at the highest priority ensuring that we were looked after and our demands were met. They had quality construction while ensuring we received the best cost savings while maintaining high safety and environmental concerns. With their deep knowledge of industry standards, they were able to provide us with creative solutions for a state-of-the-art facility. Duane was extremely responsive from design to completion and provided us with constant communication while completing the project on time and at budget. While working in a remote location on Block Island, there were no snags in the delivery. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

  • "Vlaco Marine has helped maintain, install, remove and store my seasonal dock for several years now. The team does a great job with my dock on each step. Further, and most importantly, Duane is the rare person in this world who in fact does what he promises, and it happens exactly when (and how) he promised - the whole experience is super smooth and I'm grateful for that."

  • "Duane Vlaco is uniquely suited for what his company offers. Born into a family involved in construction, heavy equipment, and boats and boat building, he brings all that experience, coupled with his degree from Mass Maritime and years of experience in the maritime community, from supporting oil rigs to captaining yachts all over. Add to that his ability to work effectively with people from all ways and walks of life, as well as basic, inborn integrity, and you have a company led by someone who knows how to get the job done."
