"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

"How did it go ? Keystone Remodeling LLC was the savior to my nightmare. I had a home insurance claim hired another contractor who walked out on the job 1 month after starting it. I was left with my home in a shambled mess ! I had this company come in and showed them the work that needed to be finished. Bill the owner of the company showed such compassion for my situation and worked with me with the funds I had left from my insurance claim to get the work done. The work he did for me is so beautifully done I wish I had him and his company from the start !. Very professional, clean work left my home clean when they left, and VERY true and honest to his word !!! If he said something would be done by a certain time it was !!! If anyone were to ask me about a contractor that I know of I would first and last recommend Bill with Key Stone Remodeling LLC. for any or all projects with home remodeling. Also I would like to add the workers that came to my home were very friendly and respectful while they were in my home and took into consideration the whole time they were here that as they were doing the work I was home recovering from surgery. I give this company an A + rating( I would give higher if I could )and will continue to recommend him to anyone who need's home improvement done !

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

Here are a few other considerations before you build, even if you're convinced you're in compliance with the law:

  • Are you damaging the environment? Bodies of water are often delicate ecosystems, and building a dock can be destructive and disruptive to the wildlife.

  • Are you blocking access? Lots of people like to use a lake, so you need to make sure your dock doesn't block public access to the water.

  • Can you enclose the dock? Just because you can build a dock doesn't mean you can build any dock you want. Some areas don't allow enclosed docks, for example.

  • Do you need to follow any specific rules or guidelines? Check with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management for any guidelines you’ll need to follow, including size and type restrictions.

Yes, many professionals handle necessary permits to ensure legal compliance.

You will likely need a permit to build a new dock or add to an existing one, especially if it's a permanent structure. Permit requirements vary by location, as they are typically set by local municipalities, counties, or cities rather than states. You should check with your local government or building department to determine what paperwork is required before you begin. In many areas, you may need multiple permits, including general construction permits and those designed to protect local marine life. Additionally, if you are part of a homeowner's association (HOA), they may have their own rules regarding docks, such as minimum distances between neighboring docks. It's best to check with all relevant authorities (city, county, HOA) to ensure you are in compliance. A professional dock builder can often handle the permit-pulling process for you.

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.

Cedar wood is the best choice for a hardwood dock, as it is rot-resistant and does well in the water. Pressure-treated pine and spruce are two other solid options. Alternately, composite or waterproof plastic are materials commonly used for docks, and are frequently used in prefabricated kits.
