Advanced Custom Carpentry is a single member LLC which is very similar to a sole proprietor except for the legal business entity. I, Seth Arzt, work alone most of the time. If necessary I will hire subcontractors especially if there is plumbing or electrical work done as I am not licensed in those areas.

"Stay far away from Kevin Grace Builders. We hired him to renovate two full bathrooms. Things started out Ok but then he just disappeared. He stopped returning calls and texts. We had to involve a lawyer to sever the relationship. We hired another contractor and learned that a lot of the work was substandard. Do research on how many times he has been sued for similar before you consider hiring him."

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

Docks can last between 20 and 30 years, provided regular maintenance has been performed. Upkeep tasks like staining your dock annually to prevent water damage, repairing broken elements quickly, and using dock covers regularly will help extend your dock’s life. Your dock is likely nearing the end of its lifespan when it shows signs of rot, rust, and foundation damage.

The most significant factor in knowing whether to repair or replace your dock is the extent of the damage and its age. If you have minor cracks on a few boards and the dock is less than 15 years old, it'll likely be worth repairing the damaged part. However, it's time to replace this essential water feature if you have significant damage, such as rotting wood in multiple areas, warps or cracks in the dock supports, or a damaged foundation.

In most areas, dock builders need some type of license. In some states, only a general construction license might be necessary, while a marine construction license is required in others. You can check online to see which is mandatory in your area, and then you can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to make sure the company holds the proper license. Since dock construction is inherently dangerous, confirm with your builder that they are fully insured for everyone’s protection.

If your boat dock and seawall appear to be failing at the same time, taking on the projects together may be easier from a permitting perspective. By doing a big project, you can ensure that everything in your property is safe and up to code. Depending on the size and condition of your boat dock, average boat dock repair cost can range from $834 to $5,432.

Minor repairs like replacing boards can be DIY-friendly, but structural or underwater repairs require professional expertise.
