These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Great Lakes Dock Works website at greatlakesdockworks.com (the "Site"). By using this Site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
This Site is a marketing and informational website for Great Lakes Dock Works, a dock and boat lift service company serving Michigan lakefront homeowners. The Site allows visitors to learn about our services and submit inquiries or estimate requests.
Nothing on this Site constitutes a binding service agreement, guarantee of availability, or commitment to a specific price. Service agreements are established separately in direct communication with our team.
You may use this Site for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:
We make reasonable efforts to keep the information on this Site current and accurate — including service descriptions, service areas, and general guidance about dock and boat lift maintenance. However, we make no warranty, express or implied, that any information on this Site is complete, accurate, or up to date at any given time.
Pricing, service availability, and scheduling are subject to change and are confirmed directly with our team, not through the website. Any cost ranges mentioned on this Site are general estimates only and are not binding quotes.
Information about permit requirements, regulations, EGLE procedures, and local ordinances is provided as general guidance only. Permit requirements change, vary by county and water body, and must be confirmed directly with the relevant authorities before any work begins. Great Lakes Dock Works is not responsible for regulatory changes or individual permit decisions.
Submitting a form on this Site is a request for us to contact you — it does not create a service contract, reserve a spot on our schedule, or commit us to any particular price or timeline. We will respond to inquiries in the order received and subject to current availability.
Response times are not guaranteed. For time-sensitive needs, we recommend calling us directly at (231) 227-8885.
Our services are subject to weather conditions, crew availability, equipment availability, permit requirements, and other factors outside our control. We serve Michigan waterfront properties but do not guarantee same-day or next-day service availability at any given time of year. Spring and fall seasons are our busiest periods — early scheduling is strongly recommended.
All content on this Site — including text, page structure, service descriptions, and blog articles — is the property of Great Lakes Dock Works or its content providers. You may view, print, and share individual pages for personal, non-commercial purposes. Reproducing, repackaging, or publishing substantial portions of this Site's content for commercial purposes without written permission is not permitted.
This Site may contain links to external resources such as EGLE, local county permit offices, or other government agencies. These links are provided for convenience only. We do not control those sites, and linking to them does not constitute an endorsement of their content or accuracy. We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of any third-party site.
This Site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Great Lakes Dock Works shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of — or inability to use — this Site or any information contained on it, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Our total liability for any claim arising from use of this Site shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of this Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Michigan.
We may update these Terms of Use at any time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
