Dock & Marine Construction in Spokane & Eastern Washington
Heavy Metal Dock & Marine Construction is based in Nine Mile Falls, Washington — in the heart of Eastern Washington's waterfront country. We serve residential and commercial waterfront properties throughout the Spokane region and across Eastern Washington, from the lakes and rivers of the Inland Northwest to the Columbia River corridor.
Our Home Region
Nine Mile Falls sits on the Spokane River northwest of the city, and the Spokane region is where Heavy Metal has its deepest roots. Eastern Washington has a large and varied waterfront — lakes, reservoirs, rivers and ponds spread across a wide geography, each with its own conditions, bottom types and construction challenges. Because we're based here, we know the region well.
Dock Construction in Eastern Washington
Waterfront properties throughout the Spokane area and Eastern Washington are our most common project territory. We build custom fixed and floating docks for residential properties, replace aging docks that have reached the end of their useful life and handle dock additions and extensions for properties where the existing structure no longer meets the owner's needs.
Pile Driving in the Spokane Region
Heavy Metal operates purpose-built marine equipment including work barges we fabricate ourselves. This gives us the ability to position equipment precisely on the water and drive pilings at sites that are not accessible by land-based machinery — which is a common situation on Eastern Washington waterfront properties where the shoreline is steep, rocky or otherwise difficult to access from land.
Seawalls & Shoreline Stabilization
Shoreline erosion is a real problem on many Eastern Washington waterfront properties. Wave action, boat wakes, fluctuating water levels and the freeze-thaw cycles of Inland Northwest winters all contribute to bank instability over time. Heavy Metal handles seawall construction, shoreline stabilization and structural cable bolting as part of complete waterfront construction projects.
In-House Fabrication Advantage
Because Heavy Metal fabricates its own aluminum and steel components, work barges and marine equipment, we can take on projects that require custom solutions. When a site has unusual geometry, difficult access or conditions that a standard dock kit isn't designed for, we build what the project actually needs rather than adapting a product that wasn't designed for it.
