My Story

Hi, I’m Jesse Cox, the owner and operator of Island Repair Service.

 

I’ve lived on Vancouver Island for over 25 years, and this is home. I know how important it is to have a boat that runs properly living on the west coast, and I’ve built my business around keeping people on the water without the hassle of dragging their boat into a shop.

I have completed two years of training at Vancouver Island University and have over 1,500 hours of hands-on marine mechanic experience. I take pride in honest, hard work and stand by every job I do.

As a one-man operation, when you call me, you deal directly with the mechanic showing up to your dock, driveway, or marina — no middlemen, no runaround.

Services

Real Stories from Our
Satisfied Customers

Jesse Cox from Island Repair Service came out today to check and fix a few things. He was great personable. Didn’t try to upsell any extra work and parts. If you want to support a young (compared to me) hustling local guy and need marine work done at your home message Jesse at Island Repair Service.
