Dock Repair and Re-Decking

Restore Your Dock, Do Not Always Replace It

Not every damaged dock needs to be torn out. A lot of the time, the right repair restores full function and safety for a fraction of a full rebuild. The trick is knowing the difference, and being honest about it.

CC Docks & Lifts repairs and re-decks docks across Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Englewood, and the rest of Lee and Charlotte Counties. Owner Alex personally inspects and oversees every repair. You get a written assessment and a plain quote, not a sales pitch.

What We Repair

Dock Repair Services for Southwest Florida Waterfronts

We handle the full range of dock repair, from a few rotted boards to a complete structural reframe.

Re-Decking

Worn, splintered, or rotted decking replaced with composite, Throughflow, or pressure treated boards. The frame stays, the surface comes back to like-new. This is one of the most common ways we extend a dock's useful life.

Storm and Hurricane Damage

Post-storm structural repair, from displaced boards and bent hardware to partial collapse. We assess honestly, prioritize urgency for unsafe structures, and rebuild to current Florida coastal standards.

Rot and Wood Decay

Florida heat, moisture, and salt accelerate rot. We replace decayed framing, stringers, and decking, and identify the source so it does not come right back.

Structural and Framing Repair

Sagging sections, failed joints, and compromised framing reinforced or rebuilt. We fix the parts under the deck that actually carry the load.

Piling Repair and Replacement

Cracked, leaning, or borer-damaged pilings repaired or replaced using our own barge. See our Piling Installation service page.

Hardware and Accessory Repair

Corroded bolts, failing cleats, loose ladders, and worn bumpers replaced with marine grade hardware specified for saltwater.

FAQ

Dock Repair and Re-Decking FAQ

How much does dock repair cost in Southwest Florida?

It depends entirely on the scope. Re-decking a standard canal dock often runs in the low thousands. Structural reframes, multiple piling replacements, or major storm restoration cost more. Because the price swing is wide, the only honest number comes from an on-site look. Request a free assessment.

Should I repair or replace my dock?

If the pilings and core structure are sound and the damage is mostly surface decking or isolated framing, repair is usually the smart spend. If pilings are failing across the dock or the structure is compromised throughout, a rebuild often costs less over time.

Do I need a permit for dock repair?

Repairs that restore a dock in the same configuration as the original are often treated more simply than new construction under Florida's permitting framework. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection notes that dock work can fall into exemption, general permit, or individual permit categories depending on scope and location. Local authorization through your county may also apply.

How long does re-decking take?

Re-decking an existing frame typically runs 3 to 7 days, depending on dock size and material. Structural and piling repairs add time based on scope and water access. We give you a realistic timeline up front.

What decking materials do you use?

Composite, Throughflow, and pressure treated, depending on your budget and goals. Composite offers lower maintenance, Throughflow improves water and light flow under the dock, and pressure treated is the budget-friendly option.

Can you repair docks damaged by a hurricane?

Yes. Storm damage repair is a core part of our work. Hurricane Ian struck southwestern Florida as a Category 4 storm with catastrophic storm surge and damaging winds, according to the NOAA National Hurricane Center. We prioritize unsafe structures and rebuild to current standards.

What areas do you serve for dock repair?

We repair docks 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.
