Built to Last. Trusted Since 1999.

Derrick performed a pre-inspection survey for a property that I was considering purchasing in Pamlico County. Things got a bit more involved than a standard inspection and Derrick was very helpful and provided excellent insight. Extremely friendly, personal and responsive. It is apparent to me that the company is very reputable/honorable and I understand now why they have the reputation in the area that they do!

This is a great marine construction company. Years ago, they installed a lift for me at a community dock, but I recently had them build a dock for our family. The entire process was fantastic and the end product far exceeded my expectations. The workmanship and attention to detail is outstanding. Thanks to Derrick and his crew for great job!

L. Clark

Bobby Cahoon Construction built a pier for us with a kayak launch. They also installed riprap and brought up the level of our back yard. The work done is super. The pier has survived two hurricanes and been completely submerged with no damage at all. Their attention to detail is awesome. Recommend them 100%!!

H. Griffin

I couldn’t recommend a better company to build your dock. We hired Bobby Cahoon marine construction to build our dock in Fulshire plantation, what a great job!! Finished in early January and it’s beautiful! The team worked 6-days a week to get the job done in less than three weeks! Derrick was responsive to our emails and phone calls through the entire process. Price was reasonable for the dock we wanted, and the built in bench is such a gorgeous addition!

S. Jaranyi

These guys do a fantastic job! They recently built us a sea wall and new steps with rails to our dock. High quality construction with a fantastic result. Highly recommend!
