"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

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.

Docks can last between 20 and 30 years, provided regular maintenance has been performed. Upkeep tasks like staining your dock annually to prevent water damage, repairing broken elements quickly, and using dock covers regularly will help extend your dock’s life. Your dock is likely nearing the end of its lifespan when it shows signs of rot, rust, and foundation damage.

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.

Minor repairs like replacing boards can be DIY-friendly, but structural or underwater repairs require professional expertise.

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