Overview

Caruso Lakeshore Construction is a Sparta, New Jersey dock builder specializing in custom lakefront docks, boat lifts and related waterfront services throughout several of Northern New Jersey’s major lake communities.

Permanent custom dock construction is a central part of the company’s work. Caruso uses a distinctive construction method intended to create durable, long-lasting lakefront structures. Dock pilings are driven to refusal and reinforced with X-bracing, with the dock structure constructed on top of the pipes rather than bolted to their sides. Ipe is used for the finished decking.

Caruso also builds custom floating docks, providing another option for properties where a permanent pile-driven structure isn’t the preferred solution.

Boat lifts are another major part of the business. Caruso Lakeshore Construction is an authorized ShoreStation dealer for New Jersey and Pennsylvania and provides boat lift sales and services.

For customers on Lake Mohawk, the company also offers seasonal dock and boat-lift installation and removal, with spring installation generally occurring in March and April and winter removal in September and October. Seasonal service availability is limited to the company’s service route.

Permanent Dock Construction

Caruso Lakeshore Construction’s permanent docks use pipe pilings rather than wood pilings. The pilings are driven to refusal and X-braced before the dock structure is constructed above them.

The company finishes its permanent docks with Ipe decking and specifically focuses on creating custom dock designs suited to individual lakefront properties.

Floating Docks

For properties where a floating system makes more sense, Caruso also offers custom floating docks. These provide an alternative for smaller lakes, different shoreline conditions or customers primarily looking to improve access to the water.

Boat Lifts & Seasonal Services

As an authorized ShoreStation dealer for New Jersey and Pennsylvania, Caruso offers boat lift equipment and service for waterfront property owners.

Lake Mohawk customers can also use the company’s seasonal installation and removal service for docks and lifts, helping prepare waterfront equipment for the beginning and end of the lake season.

Best For

Caruso Lakeshore Construction is particularly well suited to lakefront homeowners around Lake Mohawk, Culver Lake, Lake Hopatcong and Greenwood Lake who want a custom permanent or floating dock, boat lift, or ongoing seasonal dock and lift service.
