Fixed docks were the traditional docking system for a long time. You would have wooden decking on a platform secured below the water with a piling. Innovations in the waterfront industry have come a long way since then. Now, there are many options on the market, from the materials the docks are built from to how they work. Modular floating dock systems are just one possible combination among those on the market today. Here’s more about how they work.

There are so many choices for waterfront property owners looking for their next dock system or dock upgrade. One of the biggest choices is the type of system you use. At PolyDock, we appreciate the durability and flexibility of floating dock systems. If you’re considering a dock system this summer, here’s why we think you should look into floating dock systems, too.

Just because your boat sits in the water doesn’t mean it’s cleaning itself. The water itself can cause damage to boat hulls that float for too long, and it can contribute to algae buildup, staining, and other blemishes that affect your boat’s appearance, performance, and value. When algae builds up on your boat dock, it can become a slippery hazard for your family as well.

While it’s important to clean algae once you see it, regular cleaning of your boat and dock will help prevent it from growing in the first place. It also gives you an opportunity to get a closer look at your entire waterfront system and see if anything else needs work. However, you don’t need to contact a professional or use harsh chemicals to ensure that your boat and dock are clean. Here are our tips for cleaning your boat and dock in the best way possible.
