 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked on buying a new dock with Mac Powell at Marine Specialities... in a word...Fantastic!!  Everything about the process was professional and smooth.  Mac was helpful and insightful every step of the way and we are THRILLED with the final product!!  Mac really went the extra mile for us especially when we made a number of changes along the way.  He helped us work with the Corp of Engineers, sent us pictures of other docks and invited us to visit a similar dock to what we were interested in that they were building for another client to help confirm our choices.  He was very helpful with advice and counsel on the best ways to sell our current dock.  I would hightly recommend Mac and Marine Specialties and would definitely use them again if we had a need.

We recently had Marine Specialties complete two jobs for us: redecking the stairs and upper deck of our dock, and installation of rip rap along our shoreline on Lake Lanier.  The sales team (Steve for the redecking project and Trice for the rip rap project) and the work crews that Marine Specialties sent to our home were reliable and professional. The materials that they used and the quality of the work they performed are top notch.  Blake and Caleb (on the redecking job) and Santos and Eduardo (on the rip rap job) worked hard and did exceptional work.  They knew their jobs, they did them well and efficiently, they were pleasant to deal with, and it was just fun to watch them work.
We are very happy with the job that Marine Specialties did, and with our overall experience with the company.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Rip-Rap and Stairs installed by Marine Specialties. Beginning with Trice Cannon, the project manager, he was responsive, on-time and the quote was very competitive. The two installation crews were separate, Abraham on the Rip-Rap and Miguel and team for the stairs. Just overall a great experience! These guys know exactly what they're doing and made sure I was happy prior to them leaving the property.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Marine Speciailties staff was wonderful to work with.  Although our wait seemed to take a bit longer due to some issues with the Army Corps, Trice did a fantastic job navigating approvals, expectations, and help throughout the entire process.  Additionally, the guys who came to work at the house were wonderful. They were personable and really helped the property look so much better. What a difference the look makes, not to mention that we hope it helps to maintain the value of our property.  Thank you to Marine Specialties.  Thanks Trice.  Thank you Matt - All of you guys were terrific!

MSI did nearly 300 feet of riprap and the results are outstanding as usual.  Most professionally run crew that always showed and delivers above and beyond.   We always choose MSI for our lake front needs.   Unmatched.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Marine Specialties is the only company me and my neighbors use for rip rap and once again their crew Abraham and Matt created a perfectly placed rip rap shoreline. The guys made sure I was happy at all phases of construction and even touched up my old rip rap so it all blends. Looks great and structurally sound. Couldn’t be more satisfied with their white glove professional service. Thanks guys!

Marine specialties did an AMAZING job on our riprap and new staircase for our dock ramp. Trice was a consummate professional. The onsite technician team Matthew, Abraham, Miguel and Robbie were fantastic. We had our houseboat moored to our oversized dock we call Dockzilla and they handled moving the dock to work on the shoreline like the professionals they are. Everything turned out even better than we had envisioned it. 5 star product and service!!!
