NICEVILLE, FLORIDA
Dock Builders Niceville
Dock builders in Niceville keep a pier to the lesser of 20% of bayou width or 200 feet, and no longer than the lot’s width at mean high water (Niceville LDC Sec. 7.08.05).
We connect Niceville owners on Boggy Bayou, Rocky Bayou and Shirks Bayou with licensed marine contractors who design to it.
Free consultation and a written scope.
Small lots and canals
Lots with under 50 feet of frontage get no individual dock. Docks reach no more than 6 feet into a canal, and slips run one per 8 feet of frontage, or one per 45 feet on canals with at least two.
Why it matters
Heights
Boat shelters, lifts and docks may not have a roof or top higher than 10 feet above mean sea level, and enclosed shelters are not allowed in residential districts.

You get a written scope and estimate. No obligation, no trip fee.
