Q & A

Straight answers from the estimator.

Common questions we hear at the first site visit. If yours isn't here, call us — we'll give you a real answer, not a brochure.

How long does a typical pier project take?

Two to four weeks on-site once permits are in hand. Permitting itself runs 60 to 120 days. We handle the timeline so you know what to expect before we start.

Do I need to file any permits myself?

Nothing. MDE tidal wetlands, Army Corps, county critical area — all of it goes through us. You sign where we tell you to sign, and we take care of the rest.

Where do you work?

Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Queen Anne’s, and Talbot counties — from Baltimore down to Chesapeake Beach and across to the Eastern Shore. If your property touches tidal water in those counties, we can build there.

Can you put a lift on my existing dock?

Most of the time, yes. We assess your structure during the site visit. If the pilings and framing carry the load, we install. If not, we quote what reinforcement is needed before we touch anything.

What materials do you use?

Marine-grade pressure-treated lumber, composite decking, vinyl sheet pile, and hot-dipped galvanized hardware. Everything is rated for saltwater immersion. Material choice is driven by your site, not by what is cheapest.

How much does a new pier cost?

Residential piers typically run $25,000 to $80,000 depending on length, width, features, and site conditions. Bulkheads price by linear foot. We give you a written estimate after the site visit. No phone-call ballparks.
