"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."

"Very pleasant experience. I was referred to them by a neighbor who had a fireplace and patio done by them. They were all friendly and worked very hard. They kept the area clean everyday. Throughout the job the project manager made sure I was happy with each phase of job and was lenient about changes. Very customer service oriented company. Would recommend them and will continue to add to my beautiful patio."

"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.."

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

You will likely need a permit to build a new dock or add to an existing one, especially if it's a permanent structure. Permit requirements vary by location, as they are typically set by local municipalities, counties, or cities rather than states. You should check with your local government or building department to determine what paperwork is required before you begin. In many areas, you may need multiple permits, including general construction permits and those designed to protect local marine life. Additionally, if you are part of a homeowner's association (HOA), they may have their own rules regarding docks, such as minimum distances between neighboring docks. It's best to check with all relevant authorities (city, county, HOA) to ensure you are in compliance. A professional dock builder can often handle the permit-pulling process for you.

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.

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.

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.
