Custom bridges in Sebastian, FL

That can include reaching the far side of a pond or another part of the property that was hard to get to.

Based in Sebastian, Florida, we have built waterfront access structures on Florida’s Space and Treasure Coasts since 1980.

Dockside Builders Bridges feature

What kinds of bridges does Dockside Builders build?

Dockside Builders builds pedestrian bridges and vehicle bridges for private property, designed to fit the site and match the rest of your waterfront structures.

What does a Dockside bridge project look like?

One of our pedestrian bridges crosses a large pond on private property and features an umanilla rope railing. For a driveway entrance, we built decorative piling “guardians,” each made of three pilings wrapped in umanilla rope and topped with realistically painted concrete pelicans.

How does a bridge project work?

Every bridge follows our five-step process: a design meeting and engineering plan, permits, construction, a final inspection and handover.
