"The deck is lovely. It was done in a timely manner and just looks so much better than I imagined. The wood railing, which I had been leery of, just looks great and solid, which the old railing definitely was not. It just makes the deck look better. Jeff & Dave were great to work with. Very pleasant and customer service oriented. I'd definitely hire them again. Irene G."

"They noted many items not actually structural to point out. Like siding, an oil tank etc. I was told before hiring them they could give me pricing estimates. But then after I hired them and got the write up they couldnâ t give me pricing because they said I needed to hire a contractor? So I felt a little scammed out of my $500 I gave them honestly. I wonâ t be hiring for structure repair."

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

Building a dock is a complicated and time-intensive project, so professional builders typically take several weeks or several months to complete dock construction. Smaller docks in relatively shallow water may take two to four weeks to complete, while large or ornate docks in deep water could take up to six months. The timeline depends on the size and type of dock you want, the weather conditions in your area, and how ornate the construction needs to be. Your dock builder should give you an estimated timeline for construction along with your quote.

It is possible to build your own dock, especially for simpler projects like a small floating dock, provided you are an experienced DIYer. However, dock building is a complicated process, and hiring a professional is recommended for larger, more complex projects that involve installing pilings or engineering a suspension structure.

A professional dock builder will have the necessary tools and skills to set post foundations, ensure proper anchoring, and build a safe, durable structure that can withstand marine conditions for decades. They are also knowledgeable about local regulations and permitting requirements. In some areas, it is illegal for anyone without a marine construction license to build a dock. Hiring a professional helps avoid these potential legal headaches and ensures the project is completed safely and correctly.

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.

Most dock builds take 1-4 weeks, depending on design, permitting, and weather conditions.

When deciding how big of a dock you can build, you should check with your city and state for any restrictions. Some cities won’t allow docks larger than one-fourth of the width of a body of water, while others have no restrictions at all. Gather this information when you apply for your permits so you can plan the build accordingly.
