Boat Dock Repair & Rebuild in Old Hickory, TN
Old Hickory Dock & Lift repairs and rebuilds boat docks in Old Hickory, Tennessee, the community at the dam that gave the lake its name. We are licensed and insured in Tennessee and we work this lower end of the lake regularly.
Old Hickory sits right at Old Hickory Lock and Dam, where the Corps impounded the Cumberland in 1954 and where some of the oldest docks on the lake still float. That age shows in our work here: original steel frames rusting at the welds, bare foam billets that have soaked through and dropped a corner, and anchors set decades ago that have worked loose. The water near the dam also feels the current and the level changes first when releases run, so anchoring takes a steady beating.
That mix drives the calls. Older docks need float replacement with sealed encapsulated units, tired cable and auger anchoring reset into the bank, and worn decking swapped for composite or aluminum. When a frame has rusted past repair, we talk honestly about a rebuild sized to the shoreline and the Corps permit.
The Army Corps manages this shoreline under its Shoreline Management Plan, so we confirm your dock's permit standing and classification before any work that changes its footprint. Not every lot near the dam carries a private dock permit.
