PLACIDA, FLORIDA
Dock Repair Placida
Dock repair in Placida needs a Charlotte County building permit, and docks on natural water such as Placida Harbor stay within 25% of the span and 15 feet from the centerline or channel edge (County Code Sec. 3-9-65).
We put Placida owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who handle county and state permits.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
Depth and markers
The target depth is 4 feet below mean low water, verified by a bathymetric survey. Anything more than 15 feet out needs reflectors and white tops.
Why it matters
State rules
Docks over aquatic preserve bottom cannot use FDEP’s online self-certification, keep 25 foot riparian setbacks, and are limited to a 4 foot walkway and a 160 square foot terminal platform.

A contractor comes to your property, looks at the structure above and below the waterline where needed, and tells you what is actually happening.
You get a written scope and estimate. No obligation, no trip fee.
- On-site assessment of the structure and surrounding soil
