Boat Ramps on the ground in Cedar Creek Lake
Cedar Creek is a Tarrant Regional Water District reservoir held at a steady raw-water elevation, which means we spec fixed docks and rigid bulkheads instead of articulating systems. TRWD permitting runs through their shoreline office — we manage the submittal package for every Cedar Creek job. Southeast main-body wind pushes specs toward larger pilings, deeper tie-backs, and breakwater geometry on exposed points.

Quick FAQ
Full FAQ →How wide should a boat ramp be?
Standard sizing:
- Single-lane residential — 12–15 ft wide. Right for most private boat ramps.
- Double-wide — 24–30 ft. Allows simultaneous launch and retrieve. Standard for busy waterfront properties, lodges, and small commercial use.
- Multi-lane commercial — 30+ ft, with guide pilings between lanes.
We size to your boat and traffic pattern, not to a one-size catalog spec. If you're launching twice a year, a single lane is fine. If you host club tournaments, you need double.
What concrete thickness is needed for a boat ramp?
We pour ramps at 6–8 inches thick with #4 or #5 rebar on a grid, depending on:
- Expected vehicle load (truck + trailer combined gross weight)
- Soil bearing capacity at the site
- Climate (freeze-thaw cycling)
Do you install the approach and parking area too?
Yes — we can scope the full launch facility:
- Approach pad and turning area
- Staging zone with tie-down anchors
- Guide pilings on each side of the ramp
- Side walls or riprap where the bank is steep
- Handrails or grab bars for safety
Doing the ramp, approach, and bank stabilization in one mobilization saves significantly versus phasing them.
