At Custom Dock Works, we love helping our customers make the most of their lakeside property with gorgeous docks that make the perfect starting point for fishing trips, boating excursions, refreshing swims, or good old-fashioned lakeside relaxation.

Each dock is different, but there is a basic process we will follow during your dock installation. Here is a brief overview of what you can expect during a dock installation with our team.
- Consultation & Planning– We’ll start by meeting with you to discuss your needs and expectations for your new dock. We will also conduct a site assessment and begin working to secure any necessary permits. From there, we’ll work with you to plan the layout, size, and features of your dock.
- Material Selection– Steel, aluminum, and wood are the three most popular dock materials we offer, and we can discuss the pros and cons of each to help you make the right choice for your needs and preferences. We only use the best products and materials, which helps ensure your new dock will last you a long time.
- Site Preparation– We’ll handle tasks like clearing the shoreline and marking the proposed site to help ensure proper positioning when the actual dock installation commences.
- Piling Installation– If you’ve chosen a fixed dock over a floating one, the next step is to use specialized equipment to drive the pilings into the lakebed to ensure your dock has a solid
- Frame Assembly– The frame for your dock is put together on the shore to ensure it is properly aligned and will be sturdy once it’s in position.
- Decking Installation– With the frame in place, we’ll then work on installing the decking, as well as any finishing touches like cleats, bumpers, ladders, and other accessories your design includes.
- Final Inspection & Testing– Before we wrap up the dock installation, we’ll perform a final inspection to ensure everything is correct and your new dock is safe and secure.
