Floating Dock Warranty Comparison
Most floating dock warranties cover malfunctions and other issues that might occur with the equipment within a specified period. However, some manufacturers offer more comprehensive warranties than others. You might find that some warranties only pay for repairs or replacements at your dock’s current value, while others cover the purchase price. When deciding where to purchase your dock, you should inquire about the warranty options and read the fine print carefully to ensure it covers everything you need. Here are the top questions to ask when considering a dock solution:
- Is the warranty coverage full or prorated over time?
- What portion of the repair or replacement cost am I responsible for over time?
- Are there any fees (labor, shipping, etc.) that I have to pay even during the coverage period?
- Does the warranty provide a full replacement or only partial credit/refund after a certain number of years?
- Are there any conditions or limitations that reduce coverage over time?
At EZ Dock, we offer comprehensive warranty coverage for products, materials and workmanship. For your peace of mind, we provide a 10-year limited warranty on flotation products and a one-year warranty on hardware and accessories. If your dock experiences manufacturing or material issues during this period, you can use the warranty to fix them at no cost.
Effective warranty management addresses issues quickly and efficiently to protect the investment, reduce the stress of looking for a professional technician and ease the financial burden on boat owners. It also ensures repairs and maintenance are done to high safety standards, reducing accidents and injuries. Good floating dock warranty coverage minimizes downtime and helps marinas and other waterfront businesses maintain operations without costly disruptions.

Comparing EZ Dock to the Competition
While many floating dock manufacturers offer warranties, the level of coverage can vary significantly. Some warranties may have shorter durations, limited coverage scopes or prorated coverage, which reduces the amount covered over time. For example, some warranties may only cover a percentage of the cost after several years. Others may exclude damage from specific environmental factors or require strict adherence to installation guidelines to maintain coverage.
Our 10-year non-prorated warranty on flotation provides full coverage throughout the warranty period, offering a clear advantage.
