Common questions
Do I need a permit to build or replace a dock or seawall?
Almost always, yes. Docks, seawalls and boat lifts in Brevard County need a building permit from the county or from your city, and depending on the site the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers may also need to sign off. We prepare the drawings and handle the permit applications as part of the job.
Can my seawall be repaired, or does it need to be replaced?
It depends on what is failing. A cracked cap, loose tie-backs or soil washing out behind the wall can often be repaired. A wall that is leaning, bowing or rotating usually cannot. We look at the wall in person and tell you which it is.
What areas do you serve?
We work throughout Brevard County, including Merritt Island, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, Rockledge, Cape Canaveral, Titusville, Melbourne, Viera, Palm Bay and Port St. John.
Do you build the roof over the dock too?
Yes. Capital Marine Construction is a Florida Certified General Contractor, so the dock, the boathouse framing and the roof are all built by one company under one permit.
What decking do you recommend?
Composite decking costs more up front and needs very little upkeep. Pressure-treated lumber costs less and needs more attention over the years. Hardwood sits in between on upkeep and at the top on price. We will walk you through the trade-offs for your site and budget.
