Southwest Florida Businesses Trust Us with their Commercial Projects
My name is Beverly Berger, and I'm president of the homeowners association at St. James Place in St. James City. About two years ago, the board of St. James Place Homeowners Association determined that we needed to replace our dock. We evaluated various dock builders for this job. We completed a request for proposal and received responses from several dock builders. After our analysis and review of everyone's quotes, we determined that Stokes Marine was the company to go with. We were very impressed with their professionalism, their knowledge of dock building, and very importantly, their interest in customer focus and the service that they were providing to us. We were very pleased with the work that Stokes has done for us. The project came in on time and on budget and our homeowners are thrilled with the finished product that we have received. We could recommend Stokes Marine to anyone.
Is Stokes Marine qualified for government and municipal contracts?
Yes. We are a licensed and bonded marine contractor with experience on municipal and FEMA-funded disaster recovery projects. We maintain the licensing, insurance, bonding, and project documentation commonly required for government procurement. We have been awarded contracts by Lee County, US Fish and Wildlife, City of Sanibel, City of Fort Myers, City of Cape Coral, FDEP, and other public entities.
Can Stokes Marine handle boardwalk construction in environmentally sensitive areas?
Yes. We have constructed and repaired boardwalks in county parks and nature preserve settings where environmental permitting, material restrictions, and construction methods are regulated. Our in-house permitting team manages agency coordination for these projects where required. We have experience with top down construction methods when environmental site conditions prevent traditional site access.
