PALM BAY, FLORIDA
Dock Builders Palm Bay
Dock builders in Palm Bay keep a dock to the lesser of 33% of the narrowest waterway width or 250 feet, and 25 feet from marked channels (Sec. 174.011).
We connect Palm Bay owners with licensed marine contractors who design to it.
Free consultation and a written scope.
Size and height
The deck sits no more than 4 feet above mean high water, and the dock area is the greater of 800 square feet or twelve times its length.
Why it matters
One of each
One dock and one open-sided boathouse per lot. More than one dock makes it a marina.
The City of Palm Bay building department issues the permit with SJRWMD, Army Corps and FDEP approval in hand (Ord. 2024-33).
