LIGHTHOUSE POINT, FLORIDA

Boat Lift Repair Lighthouse Point

Boat lift repair in Lighthouse Point keeps lifts bare: the 2024 shoreline ordinance bans awnings, roofs and bimini tops on any lift, davit or platform.

Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We connect Lighthouse Point owners with licensed marine contractors who service lifts on the canals and the Intracoastal.

Free inspection and a written scope.

Not on the cap

Lifts, davits and floating platforms may not sit on or be supported by the seawall cap. A repair that moves load onto the wall will not pass.

Pilings by frontage

Under the 2024 ordinance, a lot up to 60 feet wide gets no mooring piles, and the count rises with frontage to four on the widest lots. Replacement lift pilings have to stay within that count.

Why it matters

Floating lifts

Floating lifts need Broward County and city permits before placement. Pilings need Army Corps, FDEP and county approvals, plus a certified survey of the installed piles.

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
  • Photos and a plain-English explanation of the problem
  • Written estimate with scope and materials
  • Repair versus replacement guidance where both are options
