Let’s start at the beginning

Approach and Process

01

Understanding your goals

Designing, building and installing a custom marina is not an easy process. Our experience goes back over 30 years to the construction of large oil rigs and refineries, where safety, reliability and functionality were paramount. Today we still apply the same high standards to the building of our custom marinas and we use the same industry quality materials. From start to finish, safety and reliability are our priorities.

Site Inspection

We are committed to working with you to bring your lake living ideas and dreams to life. First, we have to inspect the location to determine to best solution for a safe marina to be installed. Once the engineering inspection has been completed, we move to the design phase. This is where we combine your goals with the unique challenges presented by your property to design a custom marina just right for you.

Design and Build

Our engineering team will ensure that your marina is designed to your exact needs, our specifications, and built to the highest safety standard. The building and fabrication process can takes several weeks so you will be provided with regular progress updates including permitting approvals if required.
