Our Wooden Dock Solutions

At Alki Deck Builders, we provide comprehensive outdoor solutions tailored to your lifestyle, property, and budget. Our full-service approach covers design, material selection, permit acquisition, and expert installation to transform your outdoor space.

Dock Installation

Every residential dock installation begins with a thorough site assessment and ends with a fully permitted, structurally sound dock built specifically around your waterfront conditions. We manage every phase so the process is seamless from start to finish.

Dock Repair

Structural repairs and piling repairs are handled with the same attention to detail we bring to new builds. We assess the full scope of the issue before recommending a course of action, restoring the dock's integrity rather than simply patching surface problems.

Dock Framing

Every residential dock we build is framed in wood, selected and installed to provide the structural backbone the entire system depends on. Our framing approach prioritizes long-term stability and compatibility with the dock materials above it.

Custom Dock Design

Stationary docks, suspended docks, piling docks, and fully custom residential dock configurations are all within our scope. Every design is built around the specific shoreline, water conditions, and intended use of the property it serves.

Benefits of Professionally Installed Wooden Docks

Waterfront Character and Value

Well-built wooden docks add natural beauty and lasting property value that generic alternatives simply cannot replicate.

Engineered for the Water

Professional residential docks are built around real water conditions and shoreline specifics, not assumptions, delivering performance that holds up over time.

Permitted and Problem-Free

Waterfront construction involves specific regulatory requirements. We handle every permit and compliance detail so your dock is legally sound before it ever touches the water.

Built Around Your Property

From dock type to material selection, every decision is made around your specific site rather than a standard formula applied to every build.

Tropical hardwoods, composite, PVC, and eco-friendly materials combined with expert craftsmanship deliver residential docks that stand up to years of waterfront exposure.
