Sweetwater did an amazing job from start to finish on our new dock. Thomas was organized, responsive and easy to communicate with. He provided us with a competitive quote that he stuck to, and he kept us informed throughout the entire process. Everyone on their team was friendly and courteous, and most importantly, they did excellent work. Justin, who led the crew, is an experienced builder and has a keen eye for detail. We are so happy with the end product and we would absolutely recommend Sweetwater to anyone needing dock repair or new construction. Thank you, Thomas, Justin, Jake, Beachy and Christian for the great job you did!

We live on Lake Wylie and we are thrilled with the work Sweetwater Marine completed for us this week. We needed a pile installed for our already-existing floating dock, and Thomas and team did a great job all-around: top notch craftsmanship; great communication; and competitive pricing. I wholeheartedly recommend Sweetwater Marine Construction, and I can’t wait to use them when we’re ready to build our dream dock in a few years!

Over the past year, I researched dock builders in the Tega Cay, Lake Wylie area. During my research, what I came to know and learn in working with Thomas and Sweatwater Dock builders, was not only their knowledge, but more importantly their professionalism. When I had a question or concern, Thomas was there to answer any and all questions. The quick response and guidance during the process was "Best in Class". We could not be happier. If you are looking for a new dock, repairs or consulting, do not hesitate to give Thomas and Sweatwater Dock Construction a call. You will not be disappointed!!! They are the best in the market.

I was really pleased with the work done on my boat dock. Thomas scheduled the project superbly and was very quick to respond to any questions. His crew was very respectful and it was obvious they were skilled in what they do. I would highly recommend Sweetwater Marine Construction for any repairs or construction of boat docks. It was a pleasure to do business with them!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sweetwater Marine Construction did an outstanding job building our new dock! Thomas and his team were professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They handled the Duke Energy lake permit process seamlessly and adapted quickly when our HOA threw an unexpected curveball. The final dock turned out exactly how we envisioned it. It's solid, beautiful, and ready for years of enjoyment. Highly recommend Sweetwater Marine Construction to anyone looking for exceptional craftsmanship and service!
