Waterfront Construction & Home Services

Everything Lake George Docks does, from the timber crib on the lake bed to the paint on the window trim — with the regulatory and seasonal realities of this lake built into every one of them.

What services does Lake George Docks offer?

Two divisions. Waterfront: custom dock building, boathouse construction and restoration, boat lift sales and installation as an authorized RGC Marine installer, timber crib and shoreline stabilization work, dock repair and ice-damage restoration, and full design and permitting through the Lake George Park Commission, APA, DEC and town. Home: painting, doors and windows, kitchens and bathrooms, outdoor kitchens, additions and remodeling, and rental readiness turnover for seasonal properties.

Two divisions, one company

The reason we run both is simple: on a lakefront property they are the same project.

The shoreline stairs meet the deck. The dock levels have to work with the bank. The house that sits empty all winter is the house whose dock is being worked by ice at the same time. Splitting that across contractors creates seams, and seams are where things fail.

Waterfront division

In and over the water

Marine construction engineered for ice expansion, a four-foot seasonal drawdown and a bottom that turns from sand to ledge without warning.
