Island Marine Construction
Services Ltd. is B.C.’s Gulf Island’s
premier custom dock builder LTD.
SERVICES CONSTRUCTION MARINE ISLAND OF COURTESY PHOTOS ALL At Island Marine Construction Services Ltd., they
like a good challenge. That’s a good thing, because
as the premier custom dock builder in the British
Columbia Gulf Islands, they’re in the business of
solving problems.
From the red tape of a long construction permit process
to environmental considerations that come with building
docks in the Gulf Islands, Island Marine thrives in an environment
where no two jobs are the same and creative solutions
are just business as usual.
Founded in 1995 by Ross Walker, Island Marine has grown
from three employees to 15. Today, the company specializes
in the design and construction of high-end residential docks.
A large structure for a private facility near Thetis Island,
B.C. incorporated a variety of different foundation
types – concrete foundations and drilled pilings
