What a dock build actually involves
A dock is a permitted marine structure, not a deck over water.
The contractor surveys the site, designs to your boat and water depth, files for permits, drives pilings from a barge, then frames and decks the structure.

How the permit process works
Almost all seawall and dock work in Broward requires permits, and that is where most projects stall.
Depending on the scope and your location, approvals can involve your city building department, Broward County environmental review, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Expect the permitting stage alone to run several weeks to several months.
The contractors we work with handle the filings. Ask about permit timelines during your inspection so the schedule is clear before anything starts.
Not sure whether you need a repair or a replacement? A licensed contractor will tell you straight, at no cost.
