Lifetime Lift and Dock (LLD) will use our years of experience to determine the best way to install, remove, and service your equipment. We are proud of the service we provide and appreciate our customers. Here are our terms and policies:
Dock and lift services will be performed after all ice is off the lake. Remaining ice can damage equipment and is unsafe for our dock crew. All fall removals will take place prior to November.
1. Your lift and dock must be ready for removal on the week selected. If yours isn’t ready when we are on your lake, we will charge a service fee to come back and remove your equipment.
2. LLD will install or remove the equipment as requested and bill for installation, removal, and any service work completed. Services provided will continue annually until canceled in writing at least 60 days prior to May 1 of the service year.
3. If a lift canopy is being removed, the boat must be on the lift. LLD is not liable for wind or storm damage if the boat is removed from the lift with the canopy left on.
4. Fall removal will take place between October 1 and November 1. We will let you know what week we will be on your lake. If your dock or lift are not vacant and ready when we are on your lake, you will be charged an hourly barge service fee.
5. Whether LLD has installed your equipment before or not, due to changes in water levels, equipment, staff, or ice damaged shoreline, it may not be installed exactly the same way each year. LLD will make their best effort to make sure the equipment is adjusted properly and is functional. All docks will be placed 18” above the waterline in protected water. On large unprotected areas we will place docks at 23” above the waterline. Unless you have made a specific written request on this form regarding your preferences (e.g. “line up the dock with house and not sidewalk”) or notified LLD of changes to shoreline due to ice shifts, or any other scenario, return trips to make adjustments or changes will be subject to a trip charge and labor rate. This includes but is not limited to adjusting the dock / lift as water levels change, canopy fabric installation / removal, running or removing extension cords.
6. Maintenance or Repair that is required will be charged a minimum $50 service fee.
7. LLD takes great care to maintain the condition of your equipment. LLD will take responsibility for damages caused by LLD employees. Your boat or home owners insurance should specifically cover any damage that occurs while in storage on your property or at our location including but not limited to rodent damage, force of nature, fire, etc. Additionally, the nature of moving heavy equipment dictates that ‘normal wear and tear’ will occur. LLD is not responsible for costs or damages due to normal wear and tear.
8. A $50.00 fee will be assessed when a payment is late, if not received within three days of the scheduled payment date. No service will be performed until bill including late fee is received by LLD.
8. Ratchet straps, when needed to secure boat lift may be provided by the owner or will be provided by LLD for a onetime fee of $50.00 per lift (please leave strap by shoreline the week scheduled for removal).
Either party may terminate this contract by a written notice. Termination of contract will not be valid until all unpaid debt and or late fees are paid.
