Dock Builder in Fruitville

Fruitville is an inland community in Sarasota County. Not waterfront in the coastal sense. We serve the area, but the work here is different from what we do on the coast.

Inland CDP east of Sarasota along Fruitville Road. No navigable waterfront.

If you have water on the property — a pond, a canal, a river reach — tell us what it is and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right people for it.

Permits in Sarasota County

Work in Fruitville is permitted through Sarasota County Planning & Development Services. A building permit is required for any structural seawall repair that replaces panels, tie-back rods or cap sections, and for new dock and lift construction.

Sarasota County Natural Resources reviews work within 50 feet of wetlands, mangroves or listed-species habitat. Submissions go through the county's Digital Plan Room.

Statewide, 3–4 months for all approvals where the work is more than 300 feet from a federal navigation channel is typical, rising to 6–9 months where a separate Army Corps approval is required. Actual timing depends on the parcel, scope, reviewing agencies and application completeness.
