We love what we do so…
When working on a project, we want our customers to not only enjoy the finished product, but the process of building it as well. Starting with the initial visit we want you to let us know what your ultimate goal is. How you plan to use the space. Do you plan to upgrade to a larger boat? Would you like a wraparound bench for the family to enjoy? Do you love fishing; do you need a fish cleaning station and etc.
From there we incorporate your vision and needs with our knowledge and experience to create a spectacular design. Once we have the design, we get to work on the permitting process ourselves. We also use our extensive network to get you in touch with the right individuals. Before construction begins we do another walk-thru of the project with the client to explain the process of construction. At this time we will address any questions or make any adjustments needed.
Throughout the construction process we strive to communicate with the client and remain transparent about the project. So that the finished product exceeds expectations. Our passion and attention to detail leave you a premier waterfront structure to enjoy for years to come!
