Anchor Marine Inc

A wharf, a bulkhead, a line of stone holding a bank in place — Anchor Marine builds the structures that stand between a Cape Cod property and the water. The company works out of 299 Commerce Park in South Chatham, putting in docks, floats and ramps, wooden bulkheads and rock revetments; its HomeAdvisor listing puts it at 58 years of marine construction along the coast from Provincetown to Boston's South Shore, and advertises free estimates. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #153177, is active on the state registry, and the Better Business Bureau gives the company an A+ grade. Google shows a 4-star average from three ratings, and in a 2023 review a homeowner described a sturdy new wharf and called the crew reliable, polite and accommodating. The scope runs wider than docks. Piling foundations, stone revetments, erosion control and plantings, sand nourishment, sand drift fencing and vinyl sheathed retaining all sit on the list, along with seasonal docks and repairs to existing coastal structures. For a waterfront property on the Cape or the South Shore with a dock to rebuild or a bank to armor, Anchor Marine is a natural call. Ask for a written scope and a firm installation window for the season you need the work done in, and confirm the registration and insurance before anything starts.
