"These guys are the BEST! Fast, efficient, good natured, innovative and the highest quality of craftsmanship! Project started just to fix woodshed, however it was too far gone so it came down. I saw visions of new project same time Ian did. He drew up plans the next day and I now have a woodshed and screened in back porch. I wanted them to preserve the integrity of my old house and use as much from the old woodshed as possible, barn siding, windows and church pews that came out of the house when converted from a church in 1836. So amazing! Thank you!"

"They did a pretty god job and the floors look very good overall. Not knowing much bout floors, I had to rely on what Buddy told me. For the most part the work was done by his two workers with Buddy, ocasionally, "dropping by" to supervise. There were some stains that they couldn't get out on the floor below the sink counter area. Apparantly there was a previous attempt to sand down the floors in the kitchen which left large circular grooves in the floor, (not Buddy's fault). The workers didn't notice it until after the staining. Cleanup was mediocre."

"The owners, Adam and Andy Florence, have extensive experience in the business and we will be hiring them again for other work. They replaced 3000 square feet of old roofing with all new architectural GAF shingles, 30-lb. felt underlay, ice shield, flashings, ridge vent, and much more. They are reliable and honest, and answered all our questions. We interviewed 4 contractors, and FlorenceEnterprises was the most professional and reasonably priced."

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.

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.

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

Here are a few other considerations before you build, even if you're convinced you're in compliance with the law:

  • Are you damaging the environment? Bodies of water are often delicate ecosystems, and building a dock can be destructive and disruptive to the wildlife.

  • Are you blocking access? Lots of people like to use a lake, so you need to make sure your dock doesn't block public access to the water.

  • Can you enclose the dock? Just because you can build a dock doesn't mean you can build any dock you want. Some areas don't allow enclosed docks, for example.

  • Do you need to follow any specific rules or guidelines? Check with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management for any guidelines you’ll need to follow, including size and type restrictions.

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.
