If you are shopping for SeaDek installation in Texas, the price question comes up fast. Here is an honest breakdown of what you will pay, why prices vary, and how to know if you are getting a fair deal.
At AK Marine Solutions, SeaDek installation is priced at $35 per square foot. That number covers everything: the SeaDek material itself, the digital templating session, CNC fabrication of your panels, and the full professional installation at your location. There are no separate line items for templating fees or shop overhead, because we do not have a shop. We come to you.
Some installers quote material and labor separately, which can look cheaper upfront but adds up quickly. When comparing quotes, always ask whether the per-square-foot rate includes installation or just material.
The biggest variable is your boat size, specifically how many square feet of deck surface you are covering. Here is a realistic range based on common boat types in Texas:
| Boat Type | Approx Sq Ft | Estimated Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Jet Ski / PWC | 15 to 25 sq ft | $525 to $875 |
| Bass Boat (small) | 25 to 40 sq ft | $875 to $1,400 |
| Bass Boat (tournament) | 40 to 55 sq ft | $1,400 to $1,925 |
| Center Console (mid) | 50 to 70 sq ft | $1,750 to $2,450 |
| Pontoon (24 ft) | 60 to 85 sq ft | $2,100 to $2,975 |
| Center Console (large) | 80 to 110 sq ft | $2,800 to $3,850 |
These are estimates based on typical square footages. Your actual cost depends on the exact measurements of your boat, not the manufacturer's listed length.
Square footage is the main driver, but a few other factors affect the final price:
You can buy pre-cut EVA foam kits online for $200 to $600. The material looks similar at a glance. But there are real differences that matter on the water.
Generic foam kits are cut to generic boat shapes. They fit loosely, leave gaps around hatches and hardware, and are self-adhesive, which means they peel up in Texas heat within a season or two. SeaDek is digitally templated to the exact measurements of your specific boat. The panels are CNC-cut and installed with marine-grade pressure-sensitive adhesive that creates a permanent bond. The result looks like it came from the factory.
Over a 10-year window, most boat owners who buy cheap kits end up spending more in replacements than they would have on a single professional SeaDek installation.

AK Marine Solutions charges $35 per square foot for SeaDek installation in Texas. This includes both the material and professional installation. There are no hidden fees for digital templating or CNC fabrication.
Most boat projects run between $800 and $3,500. A small bass boat or jet ski typically lands in the $800 to $1,400 range. A mid-size center console or pontoon runs $1,500 to $2,500. Larger boats with complex layouts can reach $3,000 to $3,500 or more.
The upfront cost of SeaDek is typically higher than marine carpet. However, SeaDek lasts 7 to 12 years compared to 3 to 5 years for carpet, which means most boat owners spend less money over time when they choose SeaDek.
