Do dock builders need to be licensed?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">contractor licensing tool</a> 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.</p></div>

How often do boat docks need maintenance?

• <div><p>Boat docks need maintenance every year. Get an inspection at the end of each warm weather season, and remove the dock from the water if possible (if it’s made of wood) when not in use. You can also treat the wood to lessen the impact of moisture damage.</p></div>

.I signed the contract to replace my old, falling-apart pier in August of 2013. The one permit I had to apply for as owner was done for me by an agent of D and W Marine Construction, who handled all the other permits and legalities. On Thursday, September 18, 2014, I was notified that work...

This was the third most expensive item in my entire life. I had to get a new bulkhead as I live on the water and everybody assumes that people who lived on the water are rich, but a lot of us inherited our houses; so we are not rich and it was expensive. I think they did a very good job...
