What breaks most in Delaware
Salt air attacks lift cables, rollers, springs, and bottom brackets from the inside out. Galvanised or stainless hardware costs more up front and is close to mandatory within a few miles of the water.
Hiring and licensing
Contractors need a Delaware business licence from the Division of Revenue.
Rules change. Treat this as a starting point and confirm current requirements with the relevant state board before you hire.
