Docks, Decks & Railing
Custom-built docks, waterfront decks, and professionally installed railing systems for residential properties throughout Hillsborough and Pinellas Counties — built to last in Florida's coastal environment.
Custom Docks Built for Florida Waterways
March Marine Construction builds custom docks using pressure-treated lumber and composite decking options including WearDeck — a high-performance composite that resists moisture, UV, and marine borers without the maintenance demands of traditional wood.
Whether you need a simple fixed dock, a floating system for fluctuating water levels, or a fully designed dock with a lift, our team handles everything from design and permitting through final inspection. We serve Apollo Beach, Tampa Bay, and surrounding waterfront communities.
Dock Types We Build
Fixed Docks
Permanently anchored to the lake or bay bottom with pilings, fixed docks are the most common choice for Florida waterfront properties. Ideal for stable water levels and everyday boat access.
Floating Docks
Floating docks rise and fall with the water level, making them a great choice for tidal areas and locations with significant water fluctuation. We build floating systems in aluminum and composite materials.
Custom Docks with Covered Lifts
We build custom docks designed around your lift, with handrails tailored to match your waterfront's style. From simple pipe rail to decorative aluminum and cable systems, every detail is built to your spec and finished to last in the Florida marine environment.
Waterfront Decks
Extend your living space to the water's edge with a custom waterfront deck. We build decks in pressure-treated lumber, composite, and WearDeck materials to match your home and lifestyle.
Materials We Use
Pressure-Treated Lumber
The industry standard for marine construction — treated to resist rot, insects, and moisture in Florida's saltwater and freshwater environments.
WearDeck Composite
A premium composite decking product engineered for marine environments. Slip-resistant, UV-stable, and virtually maintenance-free. Available in multiple colors.
Aluminum Framing
Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, aluminum framing is ideal for floating dock systems and structures in high-salinity environments.
Railing That Works as Hard as It Looks
The right railing system does more than meet code — it defines the look of your waterfront structure and protects your family and guests. March Marine Construction installs railing systems in a variety of materials and styles, all selected for durability in Florida's saltwater and UV-intense environment.
We work with you to choose the right system for your dock, deck, or seawall cap, and handle all installation as part of your broader marine construction project or as a standalone upgrade.
Railing Systems We Install
Aluminum Railing
Powder-coated aluminum is the most popular choice for Florida waterfront properties. Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and available in a wide range of colors and styles. Low maintenance and long-lasting in saltwater environments.
Stainless Cable Railing
Horizontal stainless steel cable infill provides an open, modern look that preserves your waterfront views. Marine-grade stainless resists corrosion and requires minimal upkeep. Ideal for contemporary dock and deck designs.
Composite Railing
Composite railing systems offer the look of painted wood without the maintenance. Resistant to rot, fading, and moisture — a great match for WearDeck and composite decking installations.
Vinyl Railing
A cost-effective option for residential docks and decks. Vinyl railing is easy to clean, never needs painting, and holds up well in Florida's humid, salt-air climate.
