The Problem We Solve
Your Wooden Dock Surface Is Working Against You Every Single Day.
In Southport, where the Cape Fear River meets the Atlantic, your dock takes more abuse than almost any other structure on your property. Salt air attacks the finish. Brackish water wicks into the wood at the frame connections. UV exposure bleaches and weakens the boards. AlumaDeck ends that cycle permanently, with one resurfacing, and you are done.
Wood Dock Surfaces Rot, Splinter, and Need Repair
A dock board that has gone soft at the edges or along the grain is a liability, not just a cosmetic issue. Aluminum eliminates that risk entirely — and unlike wood, it does not come back. One resurfacing with AlumaDeck and the safety problem is solved permanently.
Constant Maintenance That Never Ends
Sealing, staining, replacing individual boards, and pulling nails that have backed out are annual rituals with wooden dock decking. AlumaDeck is the last surface your dock will ever need. No annual prep, no replacement cycle, no maintenance cost year over year.
Materials That Were Not Built for Marine Exposure
Pressure-treated lumber was not engineered for the combined effect of saltwater spray, tidal moisture cycling, UV bleaching, and biological activity of a coastal waterway. Aluminum was. It does not absorb, rot, fade, or degrade — ever.

What Makes It Stand Out
✓ Aluminum is the permanent end product — resurface once and the maintenance cycle ends for good
✓ Will not rot, warp, splinter, fade, or corrode in salt air, brackish water, or tidal moisture
✓ Self-spacing watertight plank construction channels water through the deck and away from the frame
✓ Slip-resistant textured surface reduces risk of falls on wet dock surfaces
✓ Stays cooler underfoot than wood or composite in direct coastal sun
✓ Mold and mildew resistant in year-round wet marine conditions
✓ No sealing, staining, painting, or board replacement — ever
✓ Fire-safe to 1,220°F (660°C); non-toxic and fully recyclable

Where We Work
Dock Repair & Resurfacing: From Private Home Docks to Commercial Boardwalks
AlumaDeck is suitable for every dock surface type in the coastal NC environment. One resurfacing permanently replaces wood across the full range of waterfront applications in Brunswick County and the Cape Fear region.
Residential Home Docks
Private docks on creeks, canals, the Intracoastal Waterway, and Cape Fear River tributaries are our most common dock repair and resurfacing application. If your dock frame is structurally sound but the surface is deteriorating, we resurface it in two to four days. Aluminum goes down once and stays down.
Floating Docks
AlumaDeck’s lightweight aluminum design adapts well to floating dock applications and handles the load changes, wave action, and water level fluctuation that accelerate wood failure faster than on fixed docks. Aluminum does not absorb moisture, which is precisely why it outlasts every alternative in this application.
Seawall Walkways
Walkway surfaces along seawalls are exposed to splash, spray, and standing water daily. AlumaDeck’s slip-resistant surface and permanent corrosion resistance make it the right material for seawall walkways — installed once, maintained never.
Commercial Piers and Boardwalks
AlumaDeck is rated for high foot traffic and commercial-level exposure. Whether it is a restaurant boardwalk, a marina walkway, or a public pier, aluminum delivers permanent durability without the maintenance overhead that wood imposes on commercial property budgets.
