Frequently Asked Questions

We've compiled a list of our frequently asked questions. If you don't see what you're looking for, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Every floating dock frame is built out of the highest-grade pressure-treated 2×8 construction. Over 50% of our header boards are covered in ½” Heavy-Duty Galvanized (HDG) Steel and ½” HDG fastening hardware. This ensures that your dock remains perfectly square.

Unlike our competition, who often use inferior 5/4” PT, our decking is made from kiln-dried, premium-grade 2×6 lumber from certified forests for sustainable forest management.
