Atlantic Wharf Builders
At Atlantic Wharf Builders we specialize in ocean front construction but also build for lake front properties. We build wharves, docks, ramps, floats, slipways, retaining walls, stairs, landings, boathouses and decks for home and shore. We are located at the Head of St. Margaret's Bay, Nova Scotia and mainly service Halifax-Dartmouth, St. Margaret's Bay, Mahone Bay, Chester, Lunenburg and Bridgewater.

Boathouses, decks, and stairways down to your wharf or beach are great additions to your waterfront property. Our quality carpentry services are well known and often referred. Shoreline construction and general landscaping often require seawalls to prevent erosion and enhance the look of your property.

We build rock and timber seawalls and retaining systems that look great and will last for years. We offer complete excavation and grading services and we have the right size excavator for any project, big or small. We can also supply and deliver landscape materials including gravel, fill and stone.
Services
We have been building wharves for over 20 years and are continually improving our construction process with the introduction of new materials and methods. As we continue to grow as a company our goals remain the same - to build a high quality wharf that not only looks great but one that will withstand the storms and surges now being experienced.
As our name implies, building wharves is our mainstay. We are well known for the quality of construction that goes into each on. A wharf built by Atlantic Wharf Builders will look great and stand up to years of use and weather. Concrete tie wharves are our specialty. Wharf cribs constructed of concrete ties are more environmentally friendly and are not susceptible to worms and rot.
Atlantic Wharf Builders Inc. is the Canadian Maritimes distributor for the of Ace Roto-Molded Float Drums. Strong, durable one piece seamless plastic floats filled with EPS foam, all with a 15 year warranty, ensure your floating docks and slips will float evenly and reliably for many years. Ace Roto-Mold Float drums come in many different sizes to be used for all sorts of floating dock projects.
In addition to building wharves, we can also design and complete any carpentry projects you would like to add to your property. These can be stand alone projects or additions to your wharf or wharf access. Whether you use a boathouse for utility and storage, as a place to relax and enjoy the water views or both, a quality boat house built by Atlantic Wharf Builders will be functional and will add value to your property.
We build many forms of seawalls and retention systems using various combinations of stone, blocks, concrete, wood or a combination of materials. Designed to look great and resist erosion, a seawall built by Atlantic Wharf Builders will enhance and protect your property. Soil retention systems, whether small or large, can be stand alone or stepped down a slope and fully incorporated into your waterfront project.

Report
I’ve been trying to get Atlantic wharf to make changes to my dock since March. We discussed those changes last year (when they installed the dock) and was told ‘no problem we will book you in spring’. In April I finally heard back and was told I would have a quote and ETA within a week. I have contacted them once every other week since then (it’s now June almost July) and I’m no longer getting response. Very disappointed, very unprofessional.
Edit: Atlantic Wharf has come and completed the requested work. Other than the delays mentioned above, I was happy with their work.

Critical: Professionalism
They cut me off driving obnoxiously in Bayer's Lake. Not great advertisement for your business.
