Seasonal Dock Install & Removal

Old Hubbard Rd · 04-14-2009, 07:57 AM

Thank God it is that time of year to get our seasonal dock installed. Need help finding a reasonably priced person to install and remove my dock as the people I had been using for years have sold the company and the new owners have raised their prices to a point that I think is unreasonable. I would love to get a recommendation who to use in Meredith on Winnipesaukee. Also curious what people are paying out there for this service. My dock is 5 sections and each section is 3' to 4' wide by aprox 8' long. Thanks for your thoughts and recommendations.

Can anyone recommend someone to put in the docks and moorings this year, prices seem crazy this year. Our docks are three fingers that get pulled up at an angle, they just have to be cranked back down and lines taken off od them and the decking, which is in sections, put back on. All numbered and labeled
also have about 13 mooring balls that need to go in, everythign else already in water

.....hello.....I'm way down the end of Meredith Neck, currently unemployed, and have experience working in cold water with my high waders and installing/removing my own 30' dock and boat lift.

I have no idea what to charge but am not looking to make a killing, just enough to buy a mcchicken & small french fries, or something

......give me a holler on the private message line.....am 6'2"...about 210lbs....strong as a horse....and just as smart!

How much did you pay last year?

I'm thinking for fifty dollars/dock section, I can help you carry the sections into the lake and get it all attached and set-up correct.

I'm surprised that there are no suggestions from this very resourceful forum!! Flatlazyness offered help but this is probably a more than 1 person job. I'm currently paying $150.00 to install the 5 sections and ladders. Thanks to Hazelnut for his private message!

Try this guy, he delivers propane for us and I think he once mentioned he could assist with installing our dock.

Mike seems like a great guy, asked him for a price and was right on it, even PMed me to make sure we were ok with the price and to see if we had any other questions.
