"We recently had Tropical Marine install our dock and boat lift, and we couldn’t be happier with them. From beginning to end, we were impressed. Initially we had a design that we thought we wanted, but after reviewing it with them, we realized that they had a design that worked much better for us.

They were great at notifying us of what was going on through each step, were very knowledgeable, and made sure we had what we wanted. Our neighbors watched as they installed the decking and said that they were careful to make sure it was right and their workers were very considerate. A couple months after it was done we had a minor issue, and they went above and beyond to fix it, doing more than what we would have expected. We are glad that we chose them for our dock and would gladly do it again."

"Tropical Marine Construction did a stellar job reconstructing my dock, upgrading my boat lift and arranging for a tiki hut installation. I couldn't be more thrilled. We have electrical to the tiki hut and can use the computer at the dock. The lighting design, including the snook light, is gorgeous. These people really know what they are doing and do it well."

"The staff and workers at Tropical Marine were outstanding! Dock and boat lift were delivered on time and at budget. Everyone was pleasant to work with and answered all my questions. Would definitely recommend Tropical Marine for any dock or boat lift projects. The only downside is payment is by cash/check...no credit cards accepted."

"We were very pleased with Tropical Marine from start to finish. My husband called and the owner met him out on the property to go over what my husband wanted for a pier. The secretary did a follow up with drawings, specifications, and other things that were considered. Within a few weeks they installed the pier that my husband had wanted and they did it exactly and with quick professionalism. The men on the job knew what they were doing and kept the area looking clean during the process. We were kept up to speed throughout the construction. The finished pier and lift look great!"

"Tropical Marine Construction is a great company! From the time we set up our first estimate until the last nail was hammered in they were always available to answer questions! They have a great eye for detail and they're product is top of the line. The boat lift they installed is all aluminum with aluminum bunks so you don't have to worry about the ripping and tearing of carpet bunks. They came the exact day they said they would to start and finished on time as well. I would highly recommend tropical marine construction for all your dock and lift needs!"

"Great experience from beginning to end. Before I purchased my condo at the end of 2016, I needed an assessment of my dock and estimate for a lift. Later when I was ready to buy, there were no surprises....on price, permits, schedule or anything. Installation crew was on time, professional and accommodating. Debbie was always "above and beyond" providing guidance on questions I had about my lift, electrical vendor, installation process/schedule and advice on replacing the deck on my captain's walk. I highly recommend Tropical Marine."

"We selected Tropical Marine Construction after entertaining four different contractor quotes for our dock renovation project. John and Debbie were very responsive throughout the project and provided good ideas and options for the final design. The construction crew was seasoned and knew how to resolve issues that surfaced during the project execution. The quality of the work was excellent and tropical coordinated with the electrical contractor to complete the job on time. The pricing was good and they were reasonable when we added work to update the dock fenders and other features. We would recommend Topical Marine to friends and family and would use them again ourselves."

"So far so good had done my due diligence on all the dock installers and tropical offered more dock for the money. I am very pleased so far with the response and price point and quality of the materials I have chosen, I am having them install a 30 foot wrap around dock with a 10k # lift using all stainless steel hardware and composite plastic decking. I have chosen and paid for the highest quality materials , so now its up to the installers to bring it home for a perfect installation. I have had the dock now for 7 months and its perfect I would highly recommend them, Debbie at the office is great to deal with and is always pleasant to talk to. They are there to handle your needs, everything turned out perfect and i love my new dock. I had had several proposals and they were very competitive and gave the most bang for the buck."

"Addition to my existing dock.
Member Comments: I submitted a request for quote to five dock builders in the Cape Coral area. Three responded. Tropical Marine was significantly less expensive than the other two (well known) builders. I was a bit apprehensive, but based on positive reviews, selected them for the project which was to add a wraparound extension to my existing dock and boat lift. Tropical was easy to work with and were very responsive during the planning process, cheerfully accommodating all my design change requests until the plan was exactly what I wanted. The time window for the project was constrained to just a couple of weeks as I'm a snowbird and the work had to be done during one of my trips to the area. Tropical showed up on time and the work was completed in a timely and professional manner. There's no difference between Tropical's work and the existing dock, which was built by one of the better known builder. I wish I had known of Tropical when I had the original work done."

Member Comments: Two gentlemen came out on time for the appointment adjusted the bunks on my exisiting boat lift. they were very professional and respectful and advised me on maintenace of my boat lift which I appreciated the education. I also worked with Debbie on a quote to modify my dock she too was very professional and informative as well as very nice. I have yet to act on the modifying of my dock but they are definitly one of the finalist when I do."

"Installed a boat lift in 2011 ontime and best price at the time but in 2013 I contacted them again to move the lift forward 6 feet (simply a personal preference) and again performed all work satisfactory = they work well with County offices, ensured all proper permits and regulation were complied with and found them straightforward and honest, very willing to accommodate my needs. All went well with few if any surprises.
Member Comments: GREAT."
