FAQ
Dock Repair Questions & Answers
The clearest signs are physical: soft or springy boards, visible rot, loose or leaning pilings, hardware that moves when it shouldn't, or sections sitting at or below water level. Even without obvious damage, we recommend a professional inspection every 12 months. Many structural problems aren't visible from a casual walkover but are obvious to a trained eye. If your dock feels different than it used to, get it checked.
Yes, in most cases. Partial decking replacement is one of the most common and cost-effective dock repairs. As long as the framing and pilings are structurally sound, we can replace individual boards, sections, or the entire deck surface without touching the underlying structure. We can also upgrade from wood to composite decking during a partial replacement if you want to reduce future maintenance.
Most repairs take 1 to 3 days. Simple decking replacement on a standard residential dock can often be completed in a single day. More extensive structural work, such as piling replacement, framing repairs, or full decking replacement, typically takes 2 to 5 days. We provide a specific timeline in every written proposal.
Minor repairs like replacing a few boards or hardware typically don't require permits. Structural repairs, including any piling work, significant framing changes, or footprint modifications, generally do. We assess permit requirements for your specific repair during the initial inspection and handle any required filings as part of our service.
First, do not use the dock until it has been professionally assessed. Storm-damaged docks can be structurally unsafe even when they look intact. Contact us for a priority post-storm inspection. We document all damage with photographs and measurements that can be used directly for your insurance claim. Most homeowner and flood insurance policies cover storm damage to docks, and our documentation significantly improves claim outcomes.
