DOCK BUILDER ST PETERSBURG REPAIRS

We recommend conducting an inspection at least once a year, especially before and after hurricane season or major storms.

Regular inspections help identify early signs of damage such as rotting wood, structural wear, or corrosion, allowing for timely repairs before the damage worsens.

Common signs include loose or broken boards, exposed nails, warping, splintering wood, or visible rot. If you notice your dock feels unstable when walking on it, or if the structural posts are tilting, it’s a clear indication that repairs are needed. Regular inspections can help catch these issues early.

While minor repairs like tightening screws or replacing a board might seem straightforward, we recommend hiring a professional for structural issues or more extensive repairs. Dock repairs require specialized tools, marine-grade materials, and knowledge of local regulations to ensure long-lasting results and safety.

The duration of the repair depends on the extent of the damage. Minor repairs may take a few hours or a day, while more extensive repairs, such as structural dock rebuilding or seawall reinforcement, may take several days to complete. We will provide an estimated timeline during your consultation.

At Dock Builder St. Petersburg, we use only high-quality, marine-grade materials that are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment. This includes pressure-treated wood, composite decking, and corrosion-resistant hardware to ensure durability and longevity.

Seawalls can show signs of damage through visible cracks, shifting or tilting, soil erosion behind the wall, or the appearance of sinkholes near the wall. If your seawall shows any of these symptoms, it’s important to schedule an inspection immediately to prevent further damage and costly repairs.
