TESTIMONIALS

What They Say

- Patrick S.

"What a great company and staff to work with!! .. and the owner was actively involved. Lancaster Docks built us a first class, beautiful dock with ALL the fixins'!! In addition, they built us a 'one of a kind' granite ledge seawall. Could not speak more highly of this company, it's people and its product, 5-star all the way."

- Madison C.

"We had an amazing experience with the Lancaster family team. They educated me about our projects (sea wall repair and dock) and why they recommended what we were doing. They gave me options and accurate estimates. The project manager on site was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and thoughtful. I would highly recommend this group."

-Susan G.

"We highly recommend Lancaster Custom Docks and Lifts. We have had several projects done with them: shoreline stabilization, dock float repair, installation of a new 10k boat lift and installation of a Sunstream hydraulic boat cover. With each project, Lancaster has been professional, efficient and conscientious about getting the job done right. We will definitely call Lancaster for future projects."
