"The deck is lovely. It was done in a timely manner and just looks so much better than I imagined. The wood railing, which I had been leery of, just looks great and solid, which the old railing definitely was not. It just makes the deck look better. Jeff & Dave were great to work with. Very pleasant and customer service oriented. I'd definitely hire them again. Irene G."

"Florida Dock and Marine is quite simply EXCELLENT. I would give them 10 out of 5 stars if I could. We needed our docks replaced at our condo complex in Naples. They were very responsive to our initial inquiry, they showed up promptly to evaluate our situation, and provided us with multiple quotes based on how we wanted to proceed and how much we could spend. We chose them based on their responsiveness and very competitive pricing. Once they were done with the docks we knew we chose the right company. They completed our docks in less than a week. Their work was excellent. They were very professional, friendly, courteous, paid attention to detail, and built us a set of docks that are now our biggest attraction to our community. They were also fun to work with. Freddie, the supervisor, kept us informed of progress the entire time and was very easy to work with. We would highly recommend them for any dock repair or installation job. You won't be disappointed. Jeff"

"Devon and Chris were very professional and able to manage multiple projects from painting, updating laundry room, and remodeling a bathroom. They were resourceful in making it working and final look and quality was top. I’d recommend Devine Craftsman and great people to work with."

"They noted many items not actually structural to point out. Like siding, an oil tank etc. I was told before hiring them they could give me pricing estimates. But then after I hired them and got the write up they couldnâ t give me pricing because they said I needed to hire a contractor? So I felt a little scammed out of my $500 I gave them honestly. I wonâ t be hiring for structure repair."

Dock Building and Repair FAQs, answered by experts

The cost of a new dock can range from $3,000 to $30,000, depending on the extent of the project size, location, and additional features.

For example, a boat lift can range from $1,000 to $8,000. The ladder you'll need for your dock can be anywhere from $100 to $800, not including installation. In addition, the decking you'll need for your dock can cost between $15 and $30 per square foot.

Common choices include pressure-treated wood, composite decking, and aluminum for durability and low maintenance.

Building a dock is a complicated and time-intensive project, so professional builders typically take several weeks or several months to complete dock construction. Smaller docks in relatively shallow water may take two to four weeks to complete, while large or ornate docks in deep water could take up to six months. The timeline depends on the size and type of dock you want, the weather conditions in your area, and how ornate the construction needs to be. Your dock builder should give you an estimated timeline for construction along with your quote.

You will likely need a permit to build a new dock or add to an existing one, especially if it's a permanent structure. Permit requirements vary by location, as they are typically set by local municipalities, counties, or cities rather than states. You should check with your local government or building department to determine what paperwork is required before you begin. In many areas, you may need multiple permits, including general construction permits and those designed to protect local marine life. Additionally, if you are part of a homeowner's association (HOA), they may have their own rules regarding docks, such as minimum distances between neighboring docks. It's best to check with all relevant authorities (city, county, HOA) to ensure you are in compliance. A professional dock builder can often handle the permit-pulling process for you.

The cost to build a new dock can range widely, typically from $5,000 to $65,000, with an average cost around $15,500. The final price depends on several key factors, including the dock's size, the materials used, the complexity of the installation, the depth of the water, the type of dock being built, and whether it is in fresh or salt water.
