Over 20 Years of Dock Building Experience

My name is Shawn Kern, and I have been a dock builder and craftsman all my adult life. I started building when I was a teenager, working alongside my stepfather. After serving three years in the military, I came home to my wife and sons, and we started building our first home after I got my residential building license.
 Becoming a dock contractor for a local company happened around the time my third son was born, and I’ve been focused on the local lakes like Lake Hartwell and Lake Keowee ever since. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with all three of my boys until they decided on their future—one has stayed in business with me, while my other two pursued different careers after college.
