"We agreed to a project for a small front porch. A little pricey with the wood cost being up but they said they honor their warranty so I signed a contract. The project was completed on time but during pretty cold weather. When the weather warmed back up it became clear there were a few cosmetic issues and a slight problem with the gate. Fortunately, when I reached out for assistance TJ sent a carpenter right over and they made it right. Great support made for a good experience. Would recommend"

"Everything went wonderfully with this company.  They were very professional, listened to exactly what my problem was, and explained to me how they were going to diagnose the problem and/or solve it before doing any actual work.  Once they started, the team (three people came) worked together like a well-oiled machine.  One was in the room with diagnostics, one was at the fuse box looking for possible problems there, and the third went into the crawlspace beneath our house to look at the physical wiring.  Once the problem was found (there was a faulty wire beneath the house that had come loose from the junction box), it was fixed and tested within minutes and another full diagnostic was done to make sure there were no other possible issues.  They cleaned up after themselves very neatly.  They also replaced the light switch with a dimmer switch at no extra cost!  Well within my budget, and came in even lower than their original (FREE) estimate!  I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the Bergen County area.

"I had a great experience with Dock Guys from the sale of the dock to the installation which was over 2 hours away from their home office. The guys that installed the dock did a great job on the install and went above and beyond by leveling and adjusting my existing dock at no cost. Would recommend Dock guys to anyone in the market for a new dock!"

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

To maintain a dock, perform regular inspections for structural issues, clean away debris, and apply a sealant to wood components. This protects the dock from water damage and prevents premature wear and structural damage.

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.

If you don’t want to rely on an anchor on land, you can also build dock posts. You’ll need to rent a water jet to blow out sand and silt from the lake floor in order to place the posts; it’s a complicated task that is best left to a professional.

The most significant factor in knowing whether to repair or replace your dock is the extent of the damage and its age. If you have minor cracks on a few boards and the dock is less than 15 years old, it'll likely be worth repairing the damaged part. However, it's time to replace this essential water feature if you have significant damage, such as rotting wood in multiple areas, warps or cracks in the dock supports, or a damaged foundation.

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.
