KEY LARGO, FLORIDA
Dock Repair Key Largo
Dock repair in Key Largo replaces pilings with non-CCA-leaching piles, or wraps them in PVC sleeves at least 30 mil thick from 6 inches below the bottom to 2 feet above mean high water (Monroe County LDC Sec. 118-12).
We put Key Largo owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who repair to county code.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
Older docks
Lawfully existing canal docks may be extended past the size limits to reach the required depth. Docks with lifts or davits need cleats or rings to tie the boat down in high winds.
Marginal docks
A dock along a canal seawall stays within 8 feet wide or 10% of the waterbody width, whichever is less. Irma brought 4 to 6 feet of water above ground across the Upper Keys in 2017.
Why it matters
Permits and the sanctuary
DEP and Army Corps permits come before the county permit. Federal sanctuary rules exempt repair or replacement of docks with fewer than 10 slips when a valid permit covers the work (15 CFR 922.163).
What a free inspection includes
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
- Photos and a plain-English explanation of the problem
- Written estimate with scope and materials
- Repair versus replacement guidance where both are options
