Residential Docks

A dock that fits your lake, your boat, and your weekends.

Modular floating dock systems for BC lakefront and oceanfront homes. Fast to install, low to maintain, built to handle whatever the season brings.

Your waterfront should work for the way you actually use it — whether that's morning swims, launching the boat on a Friday afternoon, or a place for the kids to jump off all summer. We'll help you figure out the right size, the right layout, and the right add-ons for your shoreline, then get it in the water without the headaches that usually come with a dock project.

Three steps to a dock in the water.

Most residential dock projects follow the same path. Here's what to expect.

1

Consult

Tell us about your shoreline, your boat, and how you plan to use the dock. We'll ask the right questions — water depth, exposure, seasonal swings, access — and recommend a configuration that actually fits your site.

2

Configure and quote

We'll put together a system that works for your needs and your budget, with a clear quote covering the dock itself, any add-ons, delivery, and installation. No surprise line items.

3

Install

Once you're ready to go, we schedule delivery and installation. Most residential systems are in the water in a single day. Then it's yours for the season — and the next twenty.

Sized for how you use the water.

EZ Dock systems are modular, so every layout is configured to the shoreline. These are the most common starting points.

Swim and lounge dock

Typically a single 8×10 or 8×15 platform extending off the shoreline. Ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and casual water access. Often paired with a swim ladder and optional bench seating.

Boat access dock

Usually a T-shape or L-shape layout — 8×20 to 8×30 — giving you a walkway out and a platform to tie up alongside. Configured for your boat's beam and depth requirements.

Full waterfront system

Larger combinations that bring it all together: swim space, boat moorage, a PWC port, and a kayak or paddleboard launch. Modular sections let you add to the system in future seasons as your use of the water grows.

Build the dock around how you'll use it.

EZ Dock accessories let you configure the system for the specific things you want to do on the water.

EZ Port (PWC lift)

A drive-on, drive-off port for your jet ski or PWC. No straps, no winches — just drive up and walk off.

EZ Launch (kayak / paddleboard)

A low-profile launch platform that lets you get in and out of a kayak or SUP without the usual wobble and splash. Rail-assisted versions are available for easier access.

Swim ladder

Standard dock-mounted ladder for easy in-and-out from the water. Typically five-step, designed to stay rigid in chop.

Bench seating

Modular bench kits that bolt directly to the dock surface. Good for a coffee spot, a fishing perch, or just somewhere to sit.

Dock curbing

Raised curbing along the edge of the dock — helpful for kids, pets, and keeping gear from sliding overboard.

Dock Lighting

Low-voltage dock lighting for safe evening access and ambient waterfront feel — ask about options.

What to budget.

Every site is different, but these ranges give a realistic starting point for planning.

Starter setup

$8,000 – $15,000

A single platform for swimming, lounging, and light water access. Great for cottages, secondary properties, and simpler shorelines.

Standard waterfront

$15,000 – $30,000

A layout with swim space and boat moorage, typically in a T-shape or L-shape. The most common residential configuration.

Full system

$30,000 – $50,000+

Larger combinations with PWC port, kayak launch, extended moorage, and add-ons. Configured around more active waterfront use.

Pricing includes system components, delivery, and standard installation. Site conditions, access, and anchoring requirements can affect the final quote. Request a quote for a figure tailored to your shoreline.

Why these docks hold up on BC lakes.

Handles water-level swings

Lakes in BC can swing several feet between seasons. A floating system rises and falls with the water — no annual adjustments, no damaged pilings.

Cold-weather ready

EZ Dock's polyethylene is designed for freeze-thaw cycles and cold conditions. Some owners leave systems in the water through winter; others pull them out each fall using EZ Dock's hitch-and-wheel removal accessory.

Low maintenance

No painting, no sealing, no splinters. A rinse with the garden hose once a season is the whole maintenance program.

10-year warranty

Float components carry a 10-year manufacturer warranty from EZ Dock, a leader in modular floating infrastructure since 1991.

A few things homeowners usually ask.

How long does installation take?

Most residential systems are installed in a single day once components are on site. Larger or remote installations may take two days.

Can the dock stay in the water over winter?

It depends on your lake and your preference. Some BC owners leave EZ Dock systems in the water year-round; others pull them out each fall using the manufacturer's hitch-and-wheel removal accessory. We'll walk through what makes sense for your specific site.

Do I need a permit?

It depends on the lake, the jurisdiction, and whether you're in fish-bearing or Crown-licensed waters. We can point you toward the right starting resources, but permitting is the property owner's responsibility.

How is the dock anchored?

Most residential systems use a combination of pipe augers for shallow water and stiff-arm or deadweight anchoring for deeper or exposed sites. We specify the anchoring based on your site conditions.

How long will the dock last?

EZ Dock systems regularly see decades of active use. The 10-year warranty covers manufacturing defects on float components; real-world lifespan with basic care is considerably longer.

Can I add to the dock later?

Yes — the modular design is one of the main reasons people choose EZ Dock. You can add a PWC port, extend the walkway, or add a kayak launch in a later season without replacing the original sections.

Do you service existing EZ Dock installations?

Yes. We can supply replacement components, add-ons, and reconfiguration for existing EZ Dock systems, including ones installed by the previous dealership.

What regions do you serve?

The Okanagan and BC Interior, the Lower Mainland and Sunshine Coast, and Vancouver Island. See our service area page for specifics.
