Custom Marine Construction

Custom Waterfront Solutions Built for You

Personalized Boathouses, Dune Walkovers, and More

Custom marine projects require experience, precision, and a clear understanding of local regulations. Coastal Marine Construction builds boathouses, covered slips, dune walkovers, and custom marine features designed specifically for your property layout and waterfront conditions. Each project begins with a site evaluation to determine structural requirements, material selection, and access considerations.

We manage all federal, state, and local permitting and coordinate specialized subcontractors for elements like electrical or roofing when required. Throughout the project, homeowners are kept informed on timelines and progress, ensuring there are no surprises. The result is a custom-built waterfront structure that blends function, durability, and craftsmanship while meeting all code and permitting requirements.
