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>

Q: What is the lifespan of a dock?
