Here’s a breakdown of the most common services we provide:
Dock and Pier Construction and Repair
- Design, build, and repair docks, piers, and floating docks for residential, commercial, or public use, using materials like wood, concrete, or composite decking. Known as Dock Builder.
- Includes installing pilings (driven or drilled), decking, railings, and mooring hardware. Repairs might involve replacing rotted wood, fixing storm-damaged sections, or reinforcing weakened pilings.
Seawall Installation and Maintenance
- Construct and repair seawalls to protect shorelines from erosion, wave action, and storm surges, using concrete, vinyl, steel, or riprap. Experts in seawall construction.
- New installations involve excavation, forming, and pouring or driving panels, while repairs address cracks, leaning walls, or soil washout behind the wall. May include adding weep holes or drainage systems (e.g., Jet Filter Systems).
Bulkhead and Retaining Wall Construction
- Build and repair bulkheads or retaining walls along canals, rivers, or lakes to stabilize soil and prevent collapse into the water.
- Similar to seawalls but often simpler, using sheet piling or concrete. Repairs fix bowing, cracking, or undermining from water pressure.
Shoreline Stabilization and Erosion Control
- Implement solutions like riprap (rock barriers), geotextile fabrics, or vegetative planting to prevent shoreline erosion.
- May involve grading, placing materials, and ensuring proper drainage. Often paired with seawall or bulkhead projects.
Marine Pile Driving
- Drive pilings (wood, concrete, or steel) into the seabed or ground to support docks, piers, bridges, or seawalls.
- Uses specialized equipment like pile drivers or vibratory hammers. We ensure proper depth and alignment for stability.
Hurricane Damage Repairs
- Restore marine structures damaged by storms, including docks, seawalls, boat lifts, and shoreline features.
- Involves assessing structural integrity, replacing broken components, and reinforcing against future storms (e.g., elevating docks or adding tiebacks to seawalls).
Mooring and Anchorage Systems
- Install and repair mooring buoys, anchors, or tie-off systems for boats at docks.
- Includes sinking concrete blocks or helical anchors and attaching chains or lines. Repairs fix worn or detached moorings.
