FORT MYERS, FLORIDA
Boat Lift Repair Fort Myers
Boat lift repair in Fort Myers keeps davits under 8 feet tall, within 48 inches of the seawall top and in the center third of the frontage (LDC Sec. 118.3.4).
We connect Fort Myers owners with licensed marine contractors who service lifts on the river and canals.
Free inspection and a written scope.
Permits
A rebuilt lift needs the City of Fort Myers permit and the bottom owner’s consent. On the Caloosahatchee, the city owns the bottom.
Why it matters
After the 2022 surge
Lifts that went under in Ian can run today and fail later. Salt water in a gearbox does its damage slowly, so open it during service.
Any structure on the river, lift included, stays within 25% of the waterway width, counting the mooring area.
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
