Keep Your Lift Running, Whoever Installed It
Boat lifts take a beating in Southwest Florida. Salt corrodes hardware, cables wear, motors age, and bunks and cradles take the weight of your boat day after day. A lift that is neglected does not just fail, it can drop or damage your boat when it goes.
CC Docks & Lifts repairs and services boat lifts across Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Englewood, and the rest of Lee and Charlotte Counties. We work on lifts we installed and lifts other companies installed, all makes and models.
Owner Alex oversees the work, diagnoses the problem correctly, and quotes the repair plainly. For new lift installs, see our Boat Lift Installation page, and for the full scope of our lift work, see the Boat Lift Services hub.
Boat Lift Repairs That Keep Your Lift Safe and Reliable
From a single worn part to a full tune-up, we handle the repairs and maintenance that keep your lift safe and reliable.
Cable and Pulley Service
Worn, frayed, or seized cables and pulleys replaced and adjusted. Cable failure is one of the most common and most dangerous lift problems, and one of the most preventable with regular service.
Motor Repair and Replacement
Lift motors that run slow, struggle under load, or have stopped working repaired or replaced. We size any replacement motor correctly for your lift and vessel weight.
Cradle Kit Replacement
Worn or corroded cradle components replaced so your boat sits supported and level. A failing cradle is a real risk to your hull, and a straightforward fix when caught in time.
Boat Lift Bunk Installation
New and replacement bunks fitted to your specific hull, so the boat rests on proper support rather than worn or mismatched bunks.
Structural and Hardware Repair
Corroded bolts, bent beams, worn guides, and failing hardware replaced with marine grade parts specified for saltwater. We fix the structure, not just the symptom.
Seasonal Maintenance Plans
Scheduled preventative service that catches wear before it becomes failure. The cheapest lift repair is the one you prevent. Ask us about a maintenance schedule for your lift.

Owner Alex on Every Job
The owner evaluates the problem and stands behind the repair. You get a correct assessment and a plain quote, not a guess and a markup.
Honest Repair-or-Replace Calls
We tell you when a part repair will hold and when a component is at the end of its life. We do not sell you a new lift when a cable and a cradle kit will do, and we do not patch something that is genuinely unsafe.
We Install and Service
Because we also install lifts, we understand them from the pilings up. That depth shows in how we evaluate and repair them. See our Boat Lift Installation.

Boat Lift Repair and Service FAQ
How much does boat lift repair cost in Southwest Florida?
It depends on what has failed. A cable or pulley service is a modest job. A motor replacement, a full cradle kit, or structural work costs more. Because the range is wide, the accurate number comes from an on-site look. Request a free quote.
Do you service boat lifts installed by another company?
Yes. We service lifts of all makes and models regardless of who installed them, including Golden, Neptune, Dolphin, IMM, Quality Aluminum, Boat Lift US, and Hi-Tide. You do not need to find the original installer.
How often should a boat lift be serviced?
For lifts in regular use in saltwater, a service check once or twice a year is a reasonable baseline, with cables and moving parts being the main wear items to watch. Lifts that sit unused for long stretches still need attention, since corrosion does not take time off.
What are the signs my lift needs service?
Common warning signs include the lift running slower than it used to, struggling to raise the boat, not holding level, visible cable fraying or rust, grinding or unusual noise, and the boat not sitting square on the cradle or bunks.
What is a cradle kit and when does it need replacing?
The cradle is the part of the lift your boat actually rests on. Over time, corrosion and load wear out cradle components, which puts your hull at risk. We replace worn cradle kits and fit the new ones to your specific boat.
Can you replace the bunks on my lift?
Yes. We install new and replacement boat lift bunks fitted to your hull, so your boat sits on proper support rather than worn, undersized, or mismatched bunks.
What areas do you serve for boat lift repair?
We service lifts across Lee and Charlotte Counties, including Cape Coral, Fort Myers, North Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, Captiva, Bokeelia, St. James City, Englewood, Punta Gorda, and Port Charlotte.
