Dock Building & Repair FAQs

1. What marine construction services does Dock Dogs Florida provide?

Dock Dogs Florida provides dock repair, new dock construction, dock replacement, piling work, bulkheads, retaining walls, stairs, railings, and custom marine construction for South Florida waterfront properties.

2. What areas does Dock Dogs Florida serve?

We serve waterfront property owners throughout Broward and Palm Beach counties, including Deerfield Beach, Pompano Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Highland Beach, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, and nearby communities.

3. How do I know whether my dock should be repaired or replaced?

The right choice depends on the condition of the decking, framing, fasteners, pilings, and surrounding shoreline. A site evaluation can identify safety concerns and determine whether targeted repairs or full replacement offers the better long-term value.

4. Which dock decking materials are best for South Florida?

Common choices include pressure-treated wood, composite decking, and PVC decking. The best material depends on your budget, desired appearance, sun exposure, maintenance preference, and waterfront conditions.

5. What is the difference between a fixed dock and a floating dock?

A fixed dock is supported by pilings and remains at a set height. A floating dock rises and falls with the water level. Site conditions, water depth, intended use, and local requirements help determine which design is appropriate.

6. Do dock projects require permits or HOA approval?

Permit and HOA requirements vary by city, county, community, and project scope. Before construction begins, property owners should confirm the approvals that apply to their waterfront property and proposed work.

7. How long does a dock repair or new dock project take?

Timing varies based on project size, material availability, permitting, site access, weather, and existing conditions. After the property and scope are reviewed, Dock Dogs Florida can provide a clearer project schedule.

8. Can Dock Dogs Florida replace damaged pilings or repair seawalls?

Yes. Piling replacement, seawall repair, seawall raising, bulkheads, retaining walls, and related marine construction can be evaluated as part of the overall waterfront project.

9. Is Dock Dogs Florida licensed and insured?

License and insurance information is available on this website, including contractor licensing, liability insurance, local business documentation, and workers’ compensation information.

This company is the best on time and very professional old dock out and new one in all in a week thanks dogs
5 stars for Barry at Dock Dogs Florida. He repaired a dock and pilings for us at Boca Bayou in Boca Raton, Florida, and did a great job. He carefully followed the HOA guidelines for building the new dock, and everything was completed in a timely and professional manner. We were very pleased with the quality of the work and highly recommend Barry and Dock Dogs Florida.
Barry, Patrick and the entire team did a fantastic job on replacing the entire dock including new posts. I couldn’t be happy with the finish product and how safe is it to walk on. Highly recommend these guys for any work that you need for dock repairs or replacements. looking forward to many more sunsets sitting out by the water thanks again Dock Dogs.
The guys at Dock Dogs built a beautiful sturdy dock for me. The guys were very neat and professional and did a great job in just two days. I highly recommend them.
A job very well done. It is such a breath of fresh air when a south FL contactor dose the job just as they aggreged.
We contacted Dock Dogs when we realized that our 27 year old dock needed replaced. Barry and Patrick were extremely professional as was their entire crew. Our new dock is not only beautiful and modern, but solid as a rock. We would highly recommend them.
Response from the owner: Thanks Jim for the 5 star Review. We enjoyed installing a new modern dock. Best Regards. Dock Dogs Deerfield Beach.
Good experience from start to finish. Owner was extremely patient leading up to the start of the dock renovation, and once the project started it was completed expeditiously with efficiency and care. Very little supervision was required and everything that was promised leading up to the start of the project was fulfilled. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Barry, Patrick, and the whole Dock Dogs team did a great job installing our 30 ft dock. We appreciated their professionalism, reasonable pricing, quick installation, and prompt response to our requests for adjustments to the project (adding a ladder, changing the piling caps). We highly recommend them for anyone with a similar project.
Working with Dock Dogs was a pleasure. They completed the work on time and on budget! They did a fantastic job and would highly recommend them!
Started dock without hassling me for upfront payment. That was appreciated. After agreeing to price got dock done in 3 days and started 4 days after agreement. Has a large crew and they show up at 7 am. Not lazy like everyone else down here. They got it done and it looks great. Dock is in small lake in West Boca
Our seawall was in need of repair, and Barry and their team of Dock and Dogs tackled the project with precision and skill. They not only addressed the necessary repairs but also proposed a creative redesign for our dock, enhancing both functionality and aesthetics. We are very satisfied with the outcome and grateful for the positive transformation they brought to our waterfront property.
I contacted Dock Dogs to raise our seawall and replace our 35 year old dock. Barry, the owner, gave us a fair estimate and we decided to move forward. He stated that once they start a job they finish and would not pull off for another until they were complete. Once beginning the job, his team showed up every day unless raining and the crew’s workmanship was outstanding. I worked along with the crew installing piping under the dock for future use. Barry was very accommodating and even had his workers installed dock components that were not mentioned in the original agreement. We are very pleased with the work that was performed and the time frame the job was completed in. I would recommend Dock Dogs for any type of marine type work.
This company was great to work with. Licenses and insurance are posted on their site. Reviews on social media are positive. The owner showed up the next morning after I contacted them. I was given a start date and price immediately. They showed up when they promised, finished the work in the time frame promised for the price promised. The owner, Barry, was frequently on site and kept me informed on progress. Worker were neat and cleaned up each day. And they deliver a great product!
Barry and Patrick were excellent to work with , beautiful design, top notch construction, reliable, knowledgeableCompany along with excellent customer serviceI highly recommend
These guys were great! They were on time every day until the job was done. Even on weekends to complete the job on time. Worked 6 hours a day in the scorching, feels like 105 degrees South Florida sun. Barry is very easy to work with and listens to what you say and does the work as planned and as promised. Would totally recommend this company and it’s worker’s to family, friend and anyone else without fear of being embarrassed. Thank you Deck Dogs, you are welcome to any parties we will be having on the perfect deck and dock.Bill Binger
Absolutely amazing experience working with them. Above and beyond expectations. Professional, ahead of schedule, kept us up to date on all of the progress and absolutely beautiful results.
So refreshing to find a company in South Florida that believes in customer service. They were prompt with a quote, showed up when they said they would, did what they said they were going to do, cleaned up every day, and were very polite and courteous. I highly recommended Dock Dogs!
Great job guys!!Love it!
I’m so glad I decided to have this company build my dock.They did an excellent job at a very reasonable price and just as importantly the entire team were not only professional but extremely nice and very courteous.I have no hesitation whatsoever in giving them my highest possible recommendation with 5 huge ⭐️stars.Thank you dock dogs your the best 👍
Dock Dogs and the crew did a 80 foot dock renewal in less than two weeks and within price quoted and perfectly completed the task. My neighbor had his composite deck done several years ago by them and still looks new. I do not hesitate to completely recommend them for your dock work as these are the true real professionals that do what you hoped could be done. Cannot say enough good things about their work here. Robert and Pat.
