"I hired Mike from a recommendation and I am very glad I did. I had to have a deck replaced at the water's edge which was literally falling into the lake. I was unsure how to proceed and relied on Mike to design it. After careful thought he came up with a solution and fully explained it to me, staying within my tight budget. When he started he told me how long it would take and what he would be doing each day. I am so happy with the finished deck and it exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him."

Dock Building and Repair questions, answered by experts

The length your dock can be will differ greatly depending on your location. Some localities will have rules; for example, some areas won't allow you to build a dock that is more than one-fourth of the width of a body of water. Other areas won't have any rules on length at all.

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.

Most dock builds take 1-4 weeks, depending on design, permitting, and weather conditions.

The average cost of a new dock piling is $950, including the labor to install it. Dock piling costs can range from $300 to $1,600. You can save money by trying to repair a damaged piling instead of replacing it. On average, repairing a boat dock piling costs $450, with prices ranging between $200 and $700.

When deciding how big of a dock you can build, you should check with your city and state for any restrictions. Some cities won’t allow docks larger than one-fourth of the width of a body of water, while others have no restrictions at all. Gather this information when you apply for your permits so you can plan the build accordingly.
