Our dock builders deliver comprehensive waterfront solutions in pressure-treated lumber, tropical hardwoods, composite, and PVC. Every project gets meticulous attention to detail, ensuring superior results built to withstand Florida’s salt, sun, and storm conditions.
Our skilled craftsmen build durable, beautiful docks for residential and commercial waterfront properties — from private residences to full marinas. We handle floating docks, stationary docks, piling docks, and fully custom designs tailored to your waterway.
We manage the full project from initial design consultation through permit acquisition, foundation installation, and precise construction. Dock framing uses premium pressure-treated lumber, tropical hardwoods such as IPE and Tigerwood, composite, and PVC materials engineered for Florida’s saltwater marine environment.
Complete your dock with ladders, boat lift systems, bumpers, lighting solutions, seating and shade structures, and storage options. We build picture-frame decking finishes and integrate every detail for a polished, functional result.
Protect your investment with metal, shingle, or tile roof installations built to Florida’s saltwater marine standards.
Maritime Docks and Decks builds single slip, double slip, multi-slip, open-air, and fully custom boathouses for residential and commercial properties. Each boathouse is engineered for Florida’s demanding marine environment.
Protect your vessel with a Maritime dock and decks installed boat lift system engineered for Florida waterways. We install, service, and maintain a full range of lift systems.
Our inventory includes 4-post aluminum boat lifts, swinger lifts with side-pivot action for easy dock access, PWC and jet ski lifts, custom boathouse lifts, and aluminum boat cradle systems. Lifts are available from 1,500 lbs up to 40,000 lbs capacity, with beam widths supported up to 108 inches. Cradle systems are engineered for V-hull, inboard, and pontoon boats, built from T-6 aluminum alloy with M.I.G. welding for long-term corrosion resistance.
We build vertical, revetment, sloping, T-head, bulkhead, floating, and fully custom seawall designs. Materials include vinyl, composite, pressure-treated lumber, tropical hardwoods, stone and riprap, sheet pile, and rock seawalls engineered for water conditions.
We design and build retaining walls that manage erosion, grade changes, and landscaping challenges across residential and commercial Florida properties. Options include sheet pile walls, anchored walls, timber retaining walls, and decorative landscape walls. Materials include pressure-treated lumber, tropical hardwoods, natural stone, vinyl panels, and composite materials. Services cover full project management from engineering and design through permit acquisition, excavation and grading, foundation preparation, and construction.
Maritime Docks and Decks builds residential and commercial access walk-overs, public beach walk-overs, elevated walk-overs, boardwalk-style structures, and fully custom designs. We install handrails, shade structures, lighting, and signage, and handle all permits through DEP and local municipalities. Materials include pressure-treated lumber, AZEK, and TimberTech composite decking. We also provide walk-over repairs, maintenance, pressure washing, and hardware replacement.

The Florida marine construction industry comes with its own complex set of permits and rules. The Intracoastal Waterway, in particular, is governed by a set of maritime, climate, wildlife, and construction laws which take true expertise to navigate. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) permits are known to be particularly challenging to get approved, and can take anywhere from several months to several years. This is why we have a dedicated team working 40 hours a week just on these permits, along with the permits for the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and any other local permits involved in your projects.
Meet with ACOE staff early to identify potential permit requirements, flag environmental concerns, and discuss any issues before the formal process begins. This step is critical given how rigorous ACOE review tends to be.
Submit a completed application form alongside detailed project descriptions and site plans. Thorough, accurate documentation at this stage reduces the risk of delays during review.
ACOE distributes a public notice to agencies and the public, opening a comment period to gather feedback. Reviewers assess the project's environmental impact on wetlands, waterways, and aquatic resources, weighing public concerns alongside agency findings.
ACOE approves, denies, or requests modifications to the project based on its findings. Because of the high legal bar, denials and modification requests are common, and applicants should be prepared to revise project plans to meet federal standards.
Schedule a meeting with DEP staff to clarify regulations and gather required documents like site plans, maps, and environmental assessments.
Select the right permit type (general or individual) and submit your application through the DEP's online portal with all required forms, fees, and supporting documents.
DEP staff first check your application for completeness, then environmental engineers review it for compliance with state and federal law, and may request revisions.
The DEP publishes a notice of your application and opens a public comment window, typically 30 days, during which stakeholders can submit comments or request a hearing.
The DEP issues an approval with specific conditions and monitoring requirements, or a denial if the project poses unresolved environmental concerns. You can appeal a denial or revise your project to meet requirements.
