DOCK CONSTRUCTION - SEATTLE,WA

Proper dock construction is important!

Boat dock builders can provide a number of functions including boat storage, boat access and a setting for near shore recreational activities.When a boat dock is properly constructed, it can remain in service for many years.There are many steps for a proper and safe dock development, suach as checking on the zoning and inspection requirements in your area and working on or near bodies of water that may require special permits from environmental agencies. Here are a few things to consider:
Type of dock? Will you need a fixed dock, floating dock or maybe a flexible dock?
Dock configuration?  Straight, L-shaped and T-shaped?
Materials?  Pressure treated wood.....metal?
Dock size?
Basic construction?
The products that you will be using to construct your dock will typically include either metal or plastic parts. Typically, plastic will hold up much better to the wear and tear of the elements and won’t absorb water like wood.
