NEW SMYRNA BEACH, FLORIDA

Boat Lift Repair New Smyrna Beach

Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We connect New Smyrna Beach owners with licensed marine contractors who service lifts.

Free inspection and a written scope.

Permits

Structural lift work needs DEP and Army Corps approval and the City of New Smyrna Beach building permit.

Height

The lift and any roof stay within 15 feet of mean high water.

A rebuilt lift on a non-exempt canal still counts toward the 25% projection limit, so measure before replacing the frame. Volusia County’s manatee review applies when the structure changes.
