What is boat dock Insurance?
The price of floating docks ranges from $5,000 to $200,000, with permanent pier dock costs as high as $500,000. Requiring such a hefty investment, these items are more than worth protecting, yet they’re typically not covered under general home insurance policies. You may have the option to add this form of coverage to your homeowner’s policy if you have a dock on your property. If added, this coverage can protect your dock in the event it is damaged or destroyed.

Additionally, floating docks can be used in areas where the water level fluctuates a lot, or areas where the lake is really ..read more
