"I've worked with JM Construction numerous times and they consistently do great work! Once Joe starts a project he completes it quickly. His network of professionals are able to take care of any plumbing, electrical... etc. needs for the project. I didn't have to worry about a thing! He immediately corrected any unexpected issues that have ever arised during our many projects together. I appreciate that Joe communicates directly. He is upfront about what materials he supplies vs. any personalized materials you should select and when he will need them by. Joe has great wholesale sources for cabinets, countertops etc. at fair prices. For the record, OTHER "contractors" I've worked have been cash-up-front, no-shows, with hidden "plumbing fees" (that I had to outsource for myself!), left materials for me to dispose of, and I was very unhappy w the craftsmanship- no thanks! I will only use JM construction... Joe is straight forward, fair prices, and always gets the job done until it's complete."

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Bulging walls, cracks in the seawall's top or side, and the appearance of a seawall "pulling away" are all signs that you need repairs or reconstruction. The area around the seawall can also provide clues. For instance, you may notice water bubbling over in areas of your yard if your seawall has holes or cracks. The soil around the seawall may also appear to be sloping or sinking.

Boat docks need maintenance every year. Get an inspection at the end of each warm weather season, and remove the dock from the water if possible (if it’s made of wood) when not in use. You can also treat the wood to lessen the impact of moisture 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.

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.
