BruceSki’s Marine Construction is a family owned and operated business in Port Barrington, Il run by Ryan and Joel Bruce whose earliest childhood memories are of playing on Pistakee Lake 40 years ago. Over the past 15 years, we’ve been servicing the Chain O’ Lakes and Fox River area with trusted customer service repairs, construction and installation of boat lifts, boat docks, seawalls, boat houses, dredging and more. Our customers now reach north into Kenosha and Walworth County in Wisconsin and far south into the Florida Keys with projects including commercial marina construction, design and large-scale renovations. No one knows the waterways of McHenry and Lake County better than us, and no one has more experience building effective marine solutions for property owners. Let us put our unmatched experience to work for you!

Our Equipment

We continually maintain, upgrade and replace our equipment in order to provide our customers with the highest quality workmanship, and we employ multiple barges with knuckle boom cranes to ensure safety and durability during all heavy lifting operations. Our excavators and bobcats can accommodate any of your excavation needs, and we use air hammer and vibratory pile drivers for post pounding and seawall installations in McHenry, Lake and Kenosha County.

Our crew knows that heavy equipment has the potential to leave its mark on your property, so we take all precautions to leave your waterfront as clean and flawless as we found it, or we repair it for free. We’ll respect your property as if it were our own. All necessary equipment for each project can be seamlessly transported on sectional barges to the job site by water, if necessary.
