"From the initial meeting up to completion of the project, Colin and his crew were very helpful and professional. Colin met with us to explain what the options were for railing on our existing deck and did not pressure us to make a quick decision. He uses quality products in the build and does not cut corners. Pete was the lead on the project and did an outstanding job answering any questions and ensuring we were completely happy with the project. We highly recommend Deck Cetera for any project as customers can expect a professional job."

"Went very well! The project manager, Jose, was there throughout the entire process. They brought seven guys whom all worked well together in forming, pouring, and finishing the concrete.  The entire process was done effectively and with diligence.  My experience with Blue World was great and plan on using them in the future."

"They repaired the roof and replaced the missing siding. Even though the siding was 20 years old, they were able to find a perfect match for it to look like it had always been there. After finishing the job, they cleaned up all the roofing materials that were taken off and took them away. My coworker needed work done and after this experience I have recommended Shingle Roofing to them.."

"Alex, Svetlana, and their crew understood the vision I had for my bathroom and they made it a reality in a quick timeframe without sacrificing quality. The team worked quickly and the space was left tidy at the end of every day. Alex stopped by frequently to check in on progress and was quick to reply to any questions or scheduling changes (needed on my end) which was very appreciated. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone looking to remodel their bathroom!"

Dock Building and Repair questions, 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.

Costs depend on dock type, size, materials, water depth, and labor.

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.

Common choices include pressure-treated wood, composite decking, and aluminum for durability and low maintenance.
