Lakes We Serve · TX

Marine construction on Lake Tawakoni.

Lake Tawakoni is a roughly 37,000-acre lake on Sabine River spanning Rains, Van Zandt, and Hunt counties, serving the Wills Point, Quinlan, and West Tawakoni area.

Know the Water

Big open water an hour east of Dallas.

As working water-supply storage, the level moves with rainfall and demand — so structures are designed around a realistic operating range rather than a single lake level. The Sabine River Authority of Texas oversees the shoreline, and dock and bulkhead work runs through its permitting program — requirements Shore Tech folds into the design from day one.

What We Build Here

Full-scope waterfront work on Lake Tawakoni.

Custom Boathouses

Entertainment-grade boathouses on Lake Tawakoni — open-gable cooling, lifts, lighting, and storm-rated substructures.

Docks & Piers

Fixed, floating, and swim piers sized to the lake's real operating range.

Bulkheads & Retaining Walls

Shoreline retention on Lake Tawakoni: galvanized steel, vinyl, FRP composite, and heavy timber — matched to the soil and exposure.

Precision Dredging

Boat slip, shoreline, and access-channel dredging — material pumped for backfill reuse instead of hauled off by truck.

Things To Know

Before you build on Lake Tawakoni.

01

Do I need a permit from the Sabine River Authority of Texas?

Almost always, yes — dock, bulkhead, and dredging work on Lake Tawakoni runs through the Sabine River Authority of Texas's shoreline program. Shore Tech prepares and manages that application as part of the project.

02

How do changing water levels on Lake Tawakoni affect a project?

Water-supply reservoirs move with rainfall and demand. We check the lake's historic range and design the structure — and the construction schedule — around it.

03

Does Shore Tech build on Lake Tawakoni?

Yes, selectively. Dave regularly travels for the right project, and Lake Tawakoni is squarely inside Shore Tech's working footprint across Texas, southern Oklahoma, and western Louisiana. Call to talk through scope and scheduling.
