"Unfortunately, our experience with Ocean City mirrors the bad experiences described in other reviews. We contracted to have a $14,000 jet ski lift built and suffered from extremely poor service and significant delays. In summary, the issues we faced are as follows: 1) After OC promised a 30 day delivery schedule, OC took over 90 days to deliver the lifts. 2) OC demanded an exorbitant $10,000 deposit, over 70% of the contract price, which tied up this money for over 90 days, knowing that they were not going to abide by their promised 30 day schedule. 3) OC’s employees were completely non responsive to our queries throughout the delay. 4) When they did communicate, OC provided false information as to when installation would occur. 5) Once OC received the lifts from the manufacturer, there was further delay in installation and OC failed to timely communicate with us about the planned installation. After the problems described above, the installation itself was poor. They installed the lifts knowing that there was not enough power to operate them safely and the lifts could not run reliably. When the electrical fuse tripped, rendering the lifts inoperable, they refused to address the problem. In sum, OC’s extremely poor service caused us to incur additional costs, lose interest income on tens of thousands of dollars (between new jet skis and lift deposit) and a lot of wasted time on our part. Fortunately, we found Chesapeake Boat Lifts, also on the Eastern Shore, who are much better to deal with and will get our business in the future."

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

Most dock repairs take 1-5 days, depending on the extent of the damage and weather conditions affecting the work schedule.

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.

Rotting wood, loose boards, rusted fasteners, and damaged pilings often require repair to maintain safety and functionality.

If your boat dock and seawall appear to be failing at the same time, taking on the projects together may be easier from a permitting perspective. By doing a big project, you can ensure that everything in your property is safe and up to code. Depending on the size and condition of your boat dock, average boat dock repair cost can range from $834 to $5,432.

Repair costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on material type, structural damage, and labor. Extensive piling or decking replacements increase the price.
