"Quick response. Came the next day to complete the project. Final project came out fine. The work he did came out great. The portion of the project his partner completed was mediocre. Overall cost came out a bit higher than I expected because I asked for a bit of additional work and apparently the materials came out higher. I probably should have asked for receipts because in my opinion the final cost came out higher than I expected. But overall I appreciated the fast service and he was able to design the project as i asked."

Dock Building and Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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.

To maintain a dock, perform regular inspections for structural issues, clean away debris, and apply a sealant to wood components. This protects the dock from water damage and prevents premature wear and structural damage.

Common features in lakefront landscaping projects include native and water-tolerant plants, stone paths, docks or piers, seating areas, and erosion control solutions to create a harmonious integration with the waterfront setting.

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.

The cost to build a new dock can range widely, typically from $5,000 to $65,000, with an average cost around $15,500. The final price depends on several key factors, including the dock's size, the materials used, the complexity of the installation, the depth of the water, the type of dock being built, and whether it is in fresh or salt water.
