When building piers, we offer options well-suited for fishing, docking boats, swimming, or simply relaxing on the waterfront.
A well-constructed pier is a highly valuable addition to any type of waterfront property. At Destination Dock, we specialize in piers, offering construction and maintenance services to those located throughout Lake Murray, South Carolina and much of the surrounding area. Whether you’re interested in a brand-new structure for your commercial property or you need help caring for an existing pier, we are here to assist with a high level of service and support.
Before we begin working on piers, we take the time to understand the goals of each of our clients. If you want to add a pier, we’ll schedule a consultation with one of our team members who can answer questions and provide as much information as possible. During this time, we will also assess the conditions of the shoreline, including factors like water depth, soil conditions, and environmental considerations. The purpose of this assessment is to ensure the design we create offers ongoing safety, functionality, and stability.
When building piers, we offer options well-suited for fishing, docking boats, swimming, or simply relaxing on the waterfront. Our technicians use quality materials that are designed to withstand exposure to changing water levels and harsh climate conditions. These factors can take a serious toll on existing piers, particularly if they weren’t as well-built to begin with, but our team can provide repair and maintenance services to keep your property protected. When necessary, we can also take care of replacing damaged piers. As a trusted provider of pier services, we take pride in a job well done.

What’s the difference between a pier and a dock?
Piers are fixed structures that are stabilized by pilings, which are driven directly into the lakebed. This prevents the pier from moving or swaying too much, which makes them great for boating, swimming platforms, fishing spots, and more. Floating docks, on the other hand, aren’t affixed to the lakebed and don’t offer the same level of stability.
What pier services do you offer?
We’re equipped to handle all your pier project needs, from developing tailored pier designs to constructing new piers to replacing old or unstable piers. We offer turnkey pier services, meaning we’ll handle each step from start to finish, creating an efficient, streamlined experience for you.
Are there any key factors I should consider before building a pier?
Yes, we recommend thinking about:
- Your shoreline and water conditions
- What materials you’d like to use
- The long-term value of your new pier
- Permitting requirements
If you’re not sure where to begin in your pier addition project, we invite you to contact our team for assistance.
