Boathouse And Lift Inspections
At Texas Dependable Inspection Services, we understand that your boathouse and boat lift are crucial investments that need regular inspections to ensure their safety and functionality. Our expert team provides thorough inspections across Texas, helping you maintain your waterfront property in excellent condition.
Importance of Boathouse and Lift Inspections
Waterfront properties, especially those with boathouses and lifts, require specific attention due to their constant exposure to water and varying weather conditions. Regular inspections can prevent costly repairs, ensure the safety of your watercraft, and increase the longevity of your property’s structures.
What We Check
- Boathouse Inspections:
- Structural Integrity: We examine the foundation, beams, joists, and posts for signs of wear, corrosion, and stability.
- Roof Condition: Inspection of the roofing material for leaks, damage, or decay that can affect the overall structure.
- Electrical Systems: Safety checks on all electrical installations to ensure they meet safety standards and function correctly without posing hazards.
- Water and Pest Damage: Evaluation for signs of water intrusion, mold growth, and pest infestations which can compromise the structure.
- Boat Lift Inspections:
- Mechanical Components: Assessment of cables, pulleys, and winches for proper operation and signs of rust or fatigue.
- Electrical Systems: Checking the lift’s motor and electrical controls for safety and functionality.
- Lift Frame and Cradles: Inspecting the integrity of the frame and cradles to ensure they can securely hold and protect your boat.
- Alignment and Adjustment: Ensuring that the lift aligns properly and adjusts smoothly to prevent damage to your boat and the lift mechanism.
- Docks And Inspections
A well built boat dock and boat house offers lakeside living at its best. The convenient access to the open water right from your backyard has an unquantifiable value. However, all boat docks, boat houses and boat lifts require regular routine maintenance to help maintain their beauty, function and safety.
For wood docks, one of the biggest issues we see are that the deck boards start to splinter. Fortunately, this can be a relatively easy fix. You might need to sand down certain sections to prevent further breaks. In other cases, you might need to replace the entire board. Obviously wood docks don’t last forever, but staying on top of the smaller dock repairs can help it stay sturdy through the upcoming seasons.
If you want to avoid these maintenance details, you can always upgrade your dock to composite boards. These materials won’t splinter, plus they still have that natural look with a wood-like texture and design.
