About Us

Master carpenter, Hank Kappert, started building docks in 1984, filling a need for a higher level of craftsmanship in the dock industry of South Puget Sound. The distinctive, attractive look of a Kapperts Dock can be seen in countless lakes in Thurston, Mason and Pierce counties and beyond, covering most of Washington State. The family-owned and operated company grew to incorporate pile driving, waterfront stairs and saltwater docks in its repertoire of quality waterfront construction services.

When international marine engineer, Bradley Smith, took over the company, the operation was raised to a new level of savvy, scope and sophistication. We take pride in our ability to offer unequalled, effective, efficient, and economical design/build solutions for a wide range of waterfront and marine construction applications. The greater the challenge, the greater our passion for developing and executing the most optimum solution for your project.
