Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We connect Dania Beach owners with licensed marine contractors who service and rebuild lifts.

Free inspection and a written scope.

The guide pole

A submersible lift allowed by variance must carry a guide pole at least 1.5 inches thick, standing 6 feet above the water, in a reflective color. Replace a missing or faded one with the repair.

City inspections

The City of Dania Beach community development department inspects mooring structures, lifts included, and gives the owner 30 days to correct an unsafe one.

Why it matters

What wears out

Cables corroded inside the strands, worn bunks and gearboxes that took salt water. A yearly service that opens the gearbox is the cheapest insurance.

A free inspection tells you which one you are looking at.

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
