When You Need a Redeck — Not a Full Rebuild

Not every aging dock needs to be torn down and rebuilt from scratch. If your dock's pilings, framing, and structural members are still sound — but the decking surface is rotting, splintering, or unsafe — a full deck replacement is the smart, cost-effective choice. You get a brand new dock surface at a fraction of the cost of full reconstruction.

JKT Marine Construction performs full deck replacements on residential and commercial docks throughout South Florida. We assess your dock's substructure first — and give you an honest recommendation. If a redeck will solve the problem, we'll tell you. If the structure needs more work, we'll tell you that too.

Decking Materials We Install

We install all major decking materials and help you choose the right option for your budget, maintenance preference, and aesthetic goals.

Composite Decking

Our most recommended option for South Florida. Composite decking resists saltwater, UV exposure, humidity, and marine organisms. It won't rot, splinter, or require annual sealing. Trex, TimberTech, and similar brands available in a range of colors and finishes.

PVC Decking

100% cellular PVC decking offers the ultimate in moisture resistance — ideal for docks with heavy water exposure. Lightweight, low-maintenance, and available in a range of profiles and colors.

Pressure-Treated Lumber

The most economical decking option. ACQ and CA-B treated lumber is durable and widely available. Requires more maintenance than composite or PVC but is a solid choice for budget-conscious projects.

IPE & Exotic Hardwoods

IPE (Brazilian Walnut) and other exotic hardwoods offer a premium, natural look with exceptional durability. Popular on luxury waterfront properties in Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, and Lighthouse Point.

Material Lifespan Maintenance Best For
Composite 25–30 years Very low Most South Florida docks
PVC 25–30 years Minimal High moisture exposure
Pressure-Treated 10–20 years Moderate Budget-friendly projects
IPE Hardwood 25–40 years Low-moderate Luxury properties

Upgrade While You Redeck

A redeck is the perfect time to add features that improve your dock's functionality and appearance.

Dock Lighting

LED dock lighting installed during your redeck — including underwater lights, deck surface lights, pilings lights, and motion-activated safety lighting.

Non-Slip Surface Treatment

Textured or coated decking surfaces for safer footing — especially important on docks used for fishing, swimming access, or by children and older adults.

Dock Cleats & Hardware

New stainless steel cleats, dock bumpers, and tie-off hardware installed during the redeck — replacing corroded or inadequate hardware with properly sized marine-grade fittings.

Boat Lift Integration

If you're adding a boat lift at the same time as your redeck, we coordinate both installations for a seamless, professional result — saving time and mobilization costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a dock redeck cost in South Florida?

Dock redeck costs in South Florida typically range from $3,000 to $20,000+ depending on dock size and decking material chosen. Composite and PVC redecks cost more upfront than pressure-treated lumber but save significantly on long-term maintenance. JKT Marine provides free on-site estimates.

How do I know if my dock needs a redeck or a full rebuild?

If your dock's pilings and framing are structurally sound but the decking is rotting, splintering, or soft — a redeck is usually the right call. If the substructure shows significant rot, movement, or structural failure, a more extensive repair or rebuild may be needed. JKT Marine assesses every dock individually and gives you an honest recommendation.

How long does a dock redeck take?

Most residential dock redecks in South Florida are completed in one to two days. Larger or more complex projects may take three to four days. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your waterfront use.

Is composite decking worth the extra cost?

For most South Florida homeowners — yes. Composite decking typically costs 30 to 50 percent more than pressure-treated lumber upfront but lasts significantly longer and requires virtually no maintenance. Most clients recoup the difference in maintenance savings within three to five years.
