Storm Marine delivered an outstanding dock and lift installation from start to finish. The quality of workmanship was excellent, and the installation was completed exactly as promised with no surprises. Their team maintained a clear, reliable schedule and communicated proactively throughout the entire process. Jason was our primary point of contact and did an exceptional job coordinating everything. He was responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure every detail was handled correctly. Any questions or concerns were addressed quickly and professionally, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for a marine contractor that combines top-tier installation quality, dependable scheduling, and exceptional customer service, Storm Marine is the place to go!

After our lift was destroyed by a Hurricane, Storm Marine was the only lift company that put us on their wait list. They stayed in constant contact and installed our new lift as soon as our docks were fixed. Jason and his crew were excellent to deal with, even when requesting a few last minute changes. Plus the "Lift Lock" they recommended works great. I strongly recommend contacting them for any new lift quotes or annual maintenance service.

Jason and the Team at Storm marine transformed our backyard with our Seawall and dock project. They finished on time and in budget. The work was very good and the whole staff was friendly and professional. I highly recommend them for a Seawall and or dock project.

Highly recommend! The team was incredibly professional and honest — no overpromising like some of the larger companies in the area. I called two weeks ago about an issue with my lift poles, and they promptly sent out two techs to take a look. I was originally told it would be about a month before their barge could come out, but they ended up squeezing me in just two weeks later! They got everything done in under an hour, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Reliable, efficient, and easy to work with!

After losing our dock, lift and boat during Hurricane Milton, I was concerned it would take a long time to demo the debris and get a new dock and lift installed. We had several contractors quote us, but decided to use Storm Marine due to their lift locking system and depth of piling placement. We were able to get on their schedule quickly and start the process much earlier than anticipated. I am beyond impressed with the quality, professionalism and customer service that we experience with Storm Marine. Their communication far exceeded our expectations and they always “did what they said they would do”. In an era of contractors taking advantage of their customers, Storm Marine’s honesty, timeliness and quality of construction was a welcome breath of fresh air. For anyone needing a new dock or lift we HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Storm Marine.

Friendly and efficient service of our boat lift: fixed stuck wheels and a faulty Gem controller that we thought we had to replace. Everything works like new again.

The team serviced our boat lift last week and discovered a couple of issues that the installer of our lift had erred on. Cables we rubbing the support beam and a plastic insert between the galvanized and stainless metals was in only 2 of the 4 supports. Also, new straps were put in to replace our 7-year old straps. Todd, Josh and Jacob arrived early for each appointment, were informative and conversational. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants their lift serviced or Seawall redone. We are now on the annual maintenance plan for our lift and feel good knowing our lift is being maintained properly.

MUST READ!!!! Contacted Storm Marine through a recommendation from a neighbor. We really couldn’t be any happier. Pricing was great, and probably more important the level of work performed was exceptional. Todd’s team could not be more professional friendly and left no evidence of the project being accomplished. In addition, Todd guided us in the selection of the lifts that would be most appropriate for us as well as the placement. We are a very private family, but under the circumstances, we would be more than happy to take phone calls for this company as a referral! there’s a lot of companies out there that are extremely professional and friendly until you hire them and then they’re a nightmare to deal with, but Storm Marine could not be more accessible friendly and their customer service is genuinely second to none. Highly recommend! Thanks Storm Marine for a great job.
