Docks of the Bay is a marine construction company serving Middlesex County, Virginia — the Middle Peninsula's boating heartland, wrapped by the Rappahannock River, the Piankatank River, and the Chesapeake Bay. For over 24 years we've built docks, piers, boat lifts, and bulkheads for waterfront owners from Deltaville to Urbanna and every creek in between.
As a licensed Virginia Class A contractor, we handle the full waterfront: new dock construction and re-decking, boat lift sales and installation, vinyl and timber bulkheads, riprap and living shorelines, boat ramps, house pilings, and dredging. Middlesex is serious boating country, and we build docks and lifts that keep serious boaters on the water.
