Dock Repair Merritt Island
Dock repair in Merritt Island has a grandfathering line: a nonconforming dock loses its status when it is replaced or more than half its structural elements are repaired (Brevard County Code Sec. 62-2118).
We put Merritt Island owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who plan around it.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
What the county permit needs
Signed and sealed plans, a survey dated within 180 days, a plot plan showing turbidity barriers, a Seawall and Dock Affidavit and Longshore insurance. Jobs over $5,000 need a Notice of Commencement.
