Crib Dock Repair
My dock was built in the 1950's. It surprisingly is in very good shape. We have kept up with replacing the fascia boards and kept the top in good shape. The cribs are as strong as when they were built. Our issue is the top of the dock takes a beating underneath during the winter. Some boards will crack which we replace but more often the top dock seperates in areas and begins to float. This puts tremendous strain on the other parts of the dock and we consistently need to latch it down. Normally it is only one small area, like a front corner. However this year the entire left side of the horseshoe has seperated and is floating. With the rising water this could potentially cause alot of damage to the contected parts or worst of all seperate entirely.
My question is, is there anyone you could recommend that has the skill and the equipment to fix this? I assume this time of year we are looking at someone with a drysuit and possibly have to use tanks. I am not an expert but am in definate need of one. Thanks!

Call either Island Support (even though you are not on an island) or Diversified Marine Construction. Both have done crib dock repair for me.
