Our services
What we build
Residential and commercial marine construction across Delmarva — two paths, given equal weight, built by the same company.
Residential waterfront
For waterfront homes.
Some of these get you onto the water, some hold the shoreline, and a few do both. Which one suits your property is a question of water depth, wave energy, soil, slope and how you actually use the place — and every page below says plainly when its answer is the wrong one.
Marine Construction
Getting you to the water, and holding the edge.
Piers & Docks
Fixed piers, docks and floating docks across Delmarva’s waterways — built from CCA-treated piling and framing, with a choice of decking.
Read moreBulkheads & Retaining Walls
Timber and vinyl walls that retain soil at the water’s edge, and retaining walls that hold grade further back.
Read moreWaterfront Decks & Access Steps
Safe, solid access from the yard to the water across slopes, grade changes and bank heights of every kind.
Read moreShoreline Protection
Taking the energy out of the water before it takes your land.
Shoreline Protection
Rip-rap, living shorelines and offshore erosion control — chosen by what the water is doing at your site.
Read moreRip-Rap
DelDOT-rated stone revetments, sized to the exposure and placed over proper filtration and bedding.
Read moreLiving Shorelines
A site-specific, nature-based approach to holding a shoreline — planted, built and monitored until it establishes.
Read moreErosion Control
Offshore rip-rap sills that take wave energy out of the water before it reaches the land.
Read moreBoats & Access
Lifts, launches and the hardware you use every day.
