Redesigning Your Dock Layout for Next Season

Was this summer your boat dock’s last season?

In our last blog, we talked about updating your existing dock for next spring. But what if you’re ready for a whole new setup? 

Here’s a few things to consider!

Redesign Your Dock Layout

Has your family outgrown your current dock setup? Off-season is the perfect time to redesign your layout! You can add more slips, create a larger lounging area, or make it easier to launch kayaks and paddleboards, just to name a few ideas. With our modular systems, customization is simple.

Upgrade to a Brand-New Dock

Sometimes, starting fresh is the best solution. Today’s dock systems are designed for easier installation, improved safety, and lower long-term maintenance. An all-new dock ensures decades of reliability. Some of our docks have been in use for over 50 years!

Upgrade Your Dock Hardware This Off-Season

Need to upgrade your dock, but not ready to invest in a brand-new setup?

This off-season, you can replace parts and rebuild your existing dock to make it nicer for the spring, without committing to the time and price of installing an entirely new dock!

Replace Old Hardware & Upgrade Parts

Bolts, brackets, and cleats wear down over time. Replacing rusted or loose hardware now can prevent dangerous failures next season. Consider upgrading to higher-quality hot-dipped galvanized or stainless-steel parts for a longer-lasting dock.

If you already use our hardware, the hot-dipped galvanized won’t corrode, but it can still wear down with age. If your hardware is old, we recommend at least inspecting it to make sure it’s in good shape for next year.


If your dock has seen better days but still has a usable frame, rebuilding may be the best option. New decking materials can bring fresh life to an old dock while keeping costs manageable.
