"I initially hired J M Begin Construction in January 2025 to renovate the 2nd floor of a 1930’s Cape Cod style home. Over the next several months the 2nd floor has been transformed into a very attractive and cozy heated two bedroom living quarters. J M Begin has proved to be exceptionally reliable, very attentive to my questions and concerns. His skill set acquired over many years experience in the building trades is outstanding. I would highly recommend J M Begin Construction."

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."

"Your Home Destinations did an amazing job on my home. I had a leak in my roof that damaged the Plywood and Sheetrock. Guilherme and his team installed a new roof and repaired all the damaged Plywood, replaced the Sheetrock and even did the painting. In short, in addition to solving my problem, I didn't have to deal with other companies from other areas, they solved the entire problem themselves."

"Joe did a great job! We were going to initially hire one contractor to do a countertop install and then another to install a dishwasher where none had existed before. Bugan Builders handled the entiire job ( electrical, plumbing, etc.) so that in one day we had new counters, reparied cabinets, and a new dishwasher. They even stayed late during a raging Nor'easter to ensure the job was done in one day as promised ! Very courteous and professional! Great job!"

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.

The length your dock can be will differ greatly depending on your location. Some localities will have rules; for example, some areas won't allow you to build a dock that is more than one-fourth of the width of a body of water. Other areas won't have any rules on length at all.

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.

The average cost of a new dock piling is $950, including the labor to install it. Dock piling costs can range from $300 to $1,600. You can save money by trying to repair a damaged piling instead of replacing it. On average, repairing a boat dock piling costs $450, with prices ranging between $200 and $700.

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.
