Santiva Marine Recovery delivers seawall repair, dock construction, pile driving, helical tiebacks, and storm recovery for waterfront owners, HOAs, and prime contractors throughout Southwest Florida. Home base Sanibel; active project work as marine subcontractor on programs in Sarasota County and beyond.
Santiva self-performs the full marine scope Southwest Florida demands. We work as both a direct contractor for waterfront owners and HOAs, and as the specialized marine subcontractor primes call when access, logistics, or execution complexity rules out their usual options.

Most contractors can build. Fewer can reliably mobilize crews, equipment, and materials to difficult waterfront sites.
With an operational base on Sanibel and established staging across Pine Island, North Captiva, and Port Charlotte, we serve the full Southwest Florida coast. Self-sufficient with a 40-foot aluminum work barge and full equipment fleet. Active subcontract work extends north into Sarasota County.
Three different waterfront recovery scopes within one municipal program. Different problems, different engineering approaches, same execution standards.
Santiva Marine Recovery is a licensed and bonded Florida marine contractor based in Sanibel. We are the preferred first-tier subcontractor for prime contractors requiring specialized marine scope — barging, seawall expertise, dock reconstruction, and storm recovery execution — and we contract directly with waterfront owners and HOAs across Southwest Florida.
Our focus is simple: get the job done safely, efficiently, and without unnecessary complexity. We operate at the scale where clients need a self-sufficient, accountable marine specialist — not a large generalist contractor and not an undercapitalized operator.
