Custom wood, composite and PVC decks that extend your living space outdoors, built to last in Florida’s coastal climate.
A custom deck extends your living space outdoors and can add to your home's value. In Sebastian, Florida, the coastal climate makes lasting materials and solid structure especially important.
Dockside Builders builds custom decks to fit your home’s style and how you live, from a simple standalone deck to a multi-level showpiece.
You dream it. We build it. From a simple standalone deck to a custom waterfront showpiece in Ipe, teak or another specialty material, we source superior hardwoods and decking through our partners and build it to last in coastal Florida.




On a Florida waterfront, hurricanes, storm surge and king tides are part of the climate. Material choice, structure and fasteners should be planned together for that exposure.
Compare wood, composite and PVC in Wood vs. composite decking for Florida waterfront homes.A professional deck builder gets the design, materials, support and permits right the first time, so your deck is safe and lasts. Dockside Builders knows Sebastian’s building codes and coastal weather, manages the whole project and makes sure your deck meets or exceeds local codes.
Dockside Builders builds wood, composite and PVC decks, plus free-standing decks, patio decks, octo-bench seating, observation towers and party decks.
For low maintenance near the water, composite and PVC decking are strong choices because they resist mold, fading and moisture. Exotic hardwoods such as Ipe, other Brazilian hardwoods and teak offer a dense, formal look and stand up well to salt air and sun when oiled or allowed to weather to gray. Pressure-treated wood offers a classic, natural look at a lower up-front cost, with more regular sealing or staining in Florida's climate.

A quality deck can boost your home’s resale value while adding space for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the outdoors.
