What Property Owners Say

Working with Waterfront Unlimited

They were meticulous, precise, and very respectful of the surrounding property. They cleaned up the place beautifully. You don't get contractors much like this anymore. They gave me updates every day.

Terri SitterDock installation

Chad Johannesen with Waterfront Unlimited is professional, does what he says when he says he'll do it, and is good at communication. My project was completed in a timely manner and looks very nice. I would recommend them to anyone.

Kate KeatingBulkhead, dock & pier project

Their responsiveness, professionalism, and willingness to help on short notice saved our weekend. Great customer service, quality work, and a company that truly takes care of its customers. I highly recommend them.

John BrookeBoat lift repair

Waterfront Unlimited did a fantastic job on my waterfront and deck. It looks beautiful, the work was professional, and the price was reasonable. They did so well I hired them again to build a boat lift. I would not hire anyone else.

Common Questions

Frequently asked

[PLACEHOLDER FAQ — drafted from site content. Replace with GBP Optimizer FAQ output.]

Do you handle the permits?

Yes. Permit coordination is handled in-house as part of every project. A GBRA construction permit and a county permit are typically required for dock, boathouse, and bulkhead work, and applications are managed in parallel with construction planning.

What are your structures built from?

Boathouse and dock frames are built with steel and decks are poured concrete. These materials outlast wood by decades and eliminate the maintenance cycles that come with wood construction.

How long does a project take?

Standalone dock projects typically run about 2 to 4 weeks. Full waterfront rebuilds that include shoreline work and a boathouse take longer, and every project is given a defined schedule up front.

Which lakes do you work on?

Lake McQueeney, Lake Dunlap, Lake Seguin, Meadow Lake, Lake Placid, Canyon Lake, and the Guadalupe River system. The crew works these lakes regularly rather than traveling in from distant regions.
