Dock Repair Rotonda West
Dock repair in Rotonda West keeps canal docks within the lesser of 25% of the open water span or 25 feet from the seawall or mean high water line (Charlotte County Code Sec. 3-9-65).
We put Rotonda West owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who handle the county permit.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
Permit and markers
Any boating structure needs a county building permit. Roof overhang is capped at 2 feet, and anything more than 15 feet out needs reflectors and white tops. Docks at canal ends follow a 45 degree rule.
Why it matters
State exemption
A single private dock in a canal can be exempt from a state permit up to 1,000 square feet, with roofs and decking counted, and FDEP charges $100 to verify it.
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
