Types Of Docks

Custom Docks

Custom docks are built around your shoreline, water depth, and structural requirements. Our team designs every detail for your specific property.

Piling Dock

Piling docks use vertical supports driven into the waterbed for a firm, load-bearing frame. They suit properties with varying water depths and active waterways.

Floating Dock

Floating docks are framed to flex naturally with rising and falling water levels. They provide consistent access in tidal and freshwater environments.

Stationary Dock

Stationary docks feature a fixed frame built for permanent residential and commercial use. They handle heavy loads and Florida's coastal conditions reliably.

Picture Frame Dock

Picture frame docks use an open-center frame allowing water access from every side. They suit swimming areas, kayak launches, and multi-use waterfront spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is dock framing important for structural stability?

Dock framing forms the backbone of every dock, distributing load and anchoring the entire structure. Without proper framing, even quality decking materials cannot perform safely over time.

What materials are used for dock frames?

We build dock frames using composite and wood dock frame materials suited to Florida's waterfront conditions. Each option is selected based on your environment and long-term durability goals.

Can dock frames support both wood and composite decking?

Yes, we support both wood and composite dock frame decking systems. We design every frame to handle the weight and span requirements of your chosen surface.

Do you handle framing for new and replacement docks?

Yes, our team builds frames for both new construction and full replacements. We assess your existing structure and recommend the most effective approach.
