Raby Bay Piling
In August 2015 our barge 'Icebreaker' was in Raby Bay to carry out a project which involved installing piling to correct revetment wall failure. 'Icebreaker' was custom built for the express purpose of canal maintenance like this.
Unlike larger barges it is designed to fit under most bridges and between pontoons.
Different to smaller aluminium or fibreglass barges, it can provide a very stable platform for up to 20t machines to get into those tight spaces. With our hydraulic ramp we can bring these machines right in close without damaging existing structures and property.

I found Gold Coast Barges fabulous to deal with, firstly in identifying a range of options to correct my revetment wall problem and then commencing my job within a short timeframe. I am very happy with the finished product and feel secure in the knowledge my wall has been fixed

Highly Recommend the team at Gold Coast Barges… Such a hard working, friendly bunch of professionals, their experience & guidance gave us the perfect boat ramp on a very difficult block. On time every morning & left the site very tidy. Couldn’t be happier.

Could not expect anything more from the team at GC Barges. At real short notice I was advised my pontoon was being installed within a week and I had an old jetty that needed removing and beach reprofiling to complete prior. I contacted Greg & his team got the job done within the time frame. Big thanks to Greg and the team Danny Ryan & Nik as they were all were all polite and highly professional. Highly recommend. 6 stars not 5 ! Cheers Guys Jason

Gold Coast Barges are a major asset to our Company. Any job large or small on the water, they are the guys to talk to. I have used nearly every other barge hire company in SEQ and Gold Coast Barges have been the stand out. Very happy with their service, price and reliability.
