A jet ski stored in the water is a jet ski slowly being ruined — hull growth, waterlogged footwells, corroding hardware, and gelcoat fade. Jordan Marine Construction installs jet ski and PWC lifts across Lake Conroe, Lake Livingston, Clear Lake, and the Houston Gulf Coast: rotating wave-runner lifts that swing the craft over the dock for step-off access, fixed cradle lifts, and multi-craft configurations that put a boat and two skis on one structure.
With 40+ years of construction experience, we mount every lift to framing that can actually carry it, align it to your specific craft, and have our licensed electricians wire it to code — a turnkey install, not a kit left for you to finish.

- 1
Craft & Dock Assessment
We confirm your PWC's weight and dimensions and verify the dock framing can carry the lift's loads.
- 2
Lift Selection
Rotating wave-runner lift, fixed cradle, or multi-craft configuration — matched to your dock layout and water depth.
- 3
Mounting & Alignment
The lift is mounted, aligned, and adjusted to your craft so loading is easy in any conditions.
- 4
Electrical & Handoff
Licensed electrical from your existing power source, full-cycle testing, and an operation walkthrough.
Components & Electrical
Marine-grade lift hardware with corrosion-resistant cables and fasteners rated for continuous water exposure. Electrical is run by a licensed electrician from your bulkhead or dock power source and connected to code.
PWCs Suffer In-Water Storage Worse Than Boats Do
Jet skis are built to be wet for hours, not moored for months. Left floating, they accumulate hull growth that kills their performance edge, hold water in footwells and hulls, corrode steering and reverse hardware at the waterline, and bake under Texas sun while doing it. The fix costs a fraction of the machine: a lift that stores the craft dry, above the chop, ready to ride. We install PWC lifts across Lake Conroe, Lake Livingston, Clear Lake, and the Houston Gulf Coast — backed by 40+ years of construction experience.
The rotating wave-runner lift is the crowd favorite for good reason: it swings the craft over the dock deck for step-off boarding and service access, then swings back over the water to launch — no ladder gymnastics, no wet-footed mounting. Fixed cradle lifts suit slips with room to spare, and drive-on float ports offer the simplest launch for casual use. We match the system to your dock's layout, your water depth, and how you actually ride.
Multi-craft households are our specialty: paired ski lifts off one walkway, a boat lift flanked by PWC lifts, or full family layouts where every craft loads without crowding its neighbor. Designing the arrangement once beats retrofitting it twice.
Installed Like Structure, Because It Is Structure
A PWC lift concentrates several hundred pounds of craft plus lift hardware onto a few framing connections — modest loads by boat-lift standards, but real ones, and they cycle every ride. We verify the dock framing before mounting, reinforce where the structure needs it, and bolt to load paths rather than convenient boards. It's a twenty-minute engineering discipline that prevents the loosening, racking, and pull-out that plague lifts slapped onto whatever wood was nearest.
Alignment does the rest: bunks and guides set to your specific hull so the ski loads straight in a crosswind and rests correctly every time, and lift travel set to your water's seasonal swing so the craft clears the chop at the top and launches cleanly at the bottom. Electric lifts get code-compliant power runs from our licensed electricians — waterline electrical done right, tested under load, and walked through at handoff.
Marine-grade componentry throughout — corrosion-resistant cables, sealed hardware rated for continuous water exposure — matched to your water's chemistry, fresh or brackish. A properly installed PWC lift is a decades-long appliance; an improvised one is an annual repair subscription.

Jet Ski Lifts FAQs
Can you fit a jet ski lift on my existing dock?
Usually yes — PWC lifts are light relative to boat lifts, and most sound docks carry them easily. We verify framing first and reinforce only if needed.
What about two jet skis?
Common request: paired PWC lifts off one dock, or a boat lift plus ski lifts in a multi-craft layout. We design the arrangement so every craft loads without crowding.
How much does a jet ski lift cost installed?
Lift type drives it — drive-on ports are simplest, rotating wave-runner lifts sit mid-range, and powered multi-craft arrangements scale up — plus any framing reinforcement and electrical. Free assessments put a firm number on your dock and craft.
What's the best jet ski lift for a small dock?
The rotating wave-runner lift is hard to beat: it stores the ski over the water and swings it over the deck only when you need it, consuming almost no permanent dock space. It's our most-requested PWC install for exactly that reason.
Do jet ski lifts need electricity?
Manual rotating lifts need none — a hand crank does the light lifting. Powered lifts add push-button convenience and want a code-compliant power run, which our licensed electricians handle as part of the install.
Will a lift fit my Sea-Doo / WaveRunner / Kawasaki?
Yes — lifts are sized and bunked to the craft, and modern PWCs across brands fall within standard capacities. Bring us the model and we'll spec the lift and set the bunks to its hull at installation.
