Conroe is Jordan Marine Construction’s home market — our shop sits just minutes away in Montgomery, and Lake Conroe is the water we know better than anyone. We build and repair docks, boat houses, bulkheads, and seawalls along the lake’s residential coves, open-water frontage, and the canals around April Sound, Bentwater, and Walden.
Because Lake Conroe is an SJRA-controlled reservoir, every waterfront structure has to respect the 201-foot pool and the authority’s shoreline rules. We’ve pulled those permits for years and design every dock and bulkhead around the lake’s real water-level swings and flood-release behavior.

Lake Conroe is a freshwater reservoir with seasonal pool fluctuation and periodic flood releases through the dam. Bulkheads and pilings here use freshwater-rated treated timber (0.60 CCA) rather than the heavier saltwater treatment used on the coast.
Permitting
Lake Conroe is managed by the San Jacinto River Authority (SJRA), which controls the 201-foot normal pool elevation and requires a shoreline/encroachment permit for docks, bulkheads, and any structure on or below the shoreline. We handle SJRA permitting end to end.
Conroe Marine Construction FAQs
Do I need a permit to build a dock or bulkhead on Lake Conroe?
Yes. The San Jacinto River Authority (SJRA) requires a shoreline permit for docks, bulkheads, boat houses, and most other waterfront structures on Lake Conroe. Jordan Marine Construction prepares and submits the SJRA application and builds to the approved plan.
What kind of bulkhead lasts longest on Lake Conroe?
On freshwater like Lake Conroe we typically build steel or freshwater-rated treated-timber (0.60 CCA) bulkheads. The right choice depends on bank height, soil, and wave exposure — we assess each site before recommending a system.
