FAQ
Questions about Surf City dock builds
>
Pender or Onslow — which county is my home in?
It depends which side of the swing bridge you are on. We confirm county before we file CAMA paperwork on every Surf City job.
>
Floating or fixed for sound-side Surf City?
Most Surf City sound-side homes do better with a floating dock — the shallow draft and tide swing fight a fixed pier.
>
Did you work the Florence rebuild here?
Yes. We reconstructed dozens of Surf City docks after Florence, and the ones we built original survived intact.
