Hi, I’m Chris Weston…

I founded Oxon Boats in 2006 to provide a specialist repainting and repair services for narrowboat owners. Nearly 20 years later, I’m still hands-on and driven by a passion for restoring, refurbishing, and repairing boats across the inland waterways.

Hi, I’m Chris Weston…

Banbury, Oxfordshire has always been my home and operational base — the market town where I trained at Tooley’s Boatyard from 2003 to 2006 and still live today.

With my deep roots on the Oxford Canal and River Thames, and a workshop further north in Coventry, I’m ideally positioned to serve boat owners across my slice of the inland waterways.

“…local connections”

Banbury, Oxfordshire has always been my home and operational base — the market town where I trained at Tooley’s Boatyard from 2003 to 2006 and still live today.

With deep roots on the Oxford Canal and River Thames, and a workshop further north in Coventry, I’m ideally positioned to serve boat owners across my slice of the inland waterways.

“…local connections”

‘‘…with over 20 years’ experience working along the Coventry, Oxford and Grand Union Canals. I’m happy to come to you (mobile service limitations permitting) or welcome you to my Coventry workshop facility.’’

While renowned for outstanding repaints, I provide — or professionally coordinate — carpentry, steelwork, electrics, gas, plumbing, and heating, ensuring seamless, fully BSS-compliant results. Whether alongside a repaint or as an independent commission, each project receives the same exacting standard.

“…a range of services”

“…a range of services”

Though widely recognised for exceptional repaints, I also undertake — or coordinate on the owner’s behalf — carpentry, steelwork, electrics, gas, plumbing, and heating, as well as delivering BSS-compliant solutions for boat owners. Whether alongside a repaint or as an independent commission, each project receives the same exacting standard.

“…Over the years, Oxon Boats has grown to deliver a full spectrum of marine repair services”
