Stability on the water can mean a lot of things. The steadiness of your dock underneath your feet. The construction of the dock itself. Peace of mind that comes with knowing that the things that are important to you are safe and secure. PolyDock can give you all of these things.

It goes without saying that you want your dock system to be something you’re comfortable setting foot on. You’ll be trusting this piece of your waterfront to not only look good but be able to securely hold you, your accessories, and your watercraft for at least as long as you have your boat, if not longer. It’s also probably fair to assume that a DIY project might be fine once in a while, most people would prefer to do as little work as possible for maximum results and high-quality performance from your floating dock system.

What we’re saying is that the best floating docks are the ones that you can really rely on year after year. PolyDock fits that bill for many boaters that are in the market for a new floating dock system. Here are the ways you can rely on your PolyDock to be a stable part of your waterfront life.

Everything about a PolyDock floating dock section, from top to bottom, is designed to be a durable, environmentally conscious addition to your waterfront. From the chambers underneath that are designed to suction the dock to the water, the rotationally molded HDPE used in construction, and some of the best features in the industry, PolyDock floating dock sections are an industry leader for some very good reasons.

Floating docks are an increasingly popular alternative to more traditional, permanent dock setups. The flexibility, ease, and durability make them an attractive choice, and for some waterfronts, floating docks might be the only or best option. While floating docks work well in many bodies of water, they’re more optimal in some places than others.

When you first shop around for waterfront property, you clearly visualize the perfect outdoor retreat. Clear, cool, refreshing water that you can boat, swim, and fish in; a beautiful view; the smell of the fresh air and wilderness … unless you have muck.

Lake muck is a foul-smelling buildup that ruins an otherwise enjoyable waterfront — you can’t exactly get a refreshing dip in a swim area filled with brown sludge that smells like rotten eggs. Dead animals and plants, sediment runoff, fertilizer buildup, septic waste, yard waste, excess algae, bird feces, and other factors like a lack of oxygen can all be part of muck.

Not only is lake muck bad for the water, but it’s also bad for your boat and dock. The runoff and pollution lead to excess biological growth that can stain or break down finishes, clog moving parts, and generally make your waterfront dirty and disgusting. Restoring your lake to its natural beauty and protecting your dock and boat requires muck removal. We have basic pros and cons of the most common muck removal methods — and one method to make muck a little easier to live with.
