How Does the Repair Process Work?

Marine restoration begins with a thorough on-site evaluation and ends with work that meets Florida marine construction standards. Clients can typically expect:

  1. On-site inspection to assess structural damage, piling condition, and hardware integrity.

  2. Detailed scope of work provided based on findings.

  3. Permit coordination with Sarasota County Environmental Permitting and, where required, the Florida DEP.

  4. Repair work completed using materials suited for coastal saltwater conditions.

  5. Final walkthrough to confirm the dock is safe, functional, and ready for use.

Do You Need a Permit for This Work in Siesta Key?

Yes, most dock repair work in Siesta Key requires permitting. Sarasota County's Water and Navigation Control Authority and the Florida DEP may both be involved depending on scope. General permits typically apply to repair and replacement of existing permitted structures, while modifications may trigger a Minor Work Permit. Abbotts' team can help manage the permitting process to keep the project on schedule and compliant.
