"Zach custom built a car port for us. He showed up on time, did exactly what he said he was going to do, and we couldn’t be happier with the end result. Pricing was competitive with larger companies, but his product was built with heavier gauge steel. Extremely satisfied and I would highly recommend Robertson Mobiles Welding."

I started this company in 2004 after moving from Baltimore Maryland, so I could help my aging parents. Since then I've noticed the Mid-West friendliness, which I find so refreshing after living in a big city for 26 years. I bring that same neighborly attitude to all my customers, and provide careful and exacting workmanship. \n\nI've been in some sort of construction or another since I was 18 years old, serving 2 apprenticeships as a Plumber and a Pipe Fitter, making me not only a Plumber but a Jack-of-all-Trades who enjoys challenges of all kinds.\n\nLargu Plumbing & Piping Systems is looking forward to finishing your project as a friendly neighbor!

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

Building a dock is a complicated and time-intensive project, so professional builders typically take several weeks or several months to complete dock construction. Smaller docks in relatively shallow water may take two to four weeks to complete, while large or ornate docks in deep water could take up to six months. The timeline depends on the size and type of dock you want, the weather conditions in your area, and how ornate the construction needs to be. Your dock builder should give you an estimated timeline for construction along with your quote.

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.

Costs depend on dock type, size, materials, water depth, and labor.

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.

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.
