Seawall Inspection Lauderdale-by-the-Sea
Seawall inspection in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea matters because the Town presumes a wall is in disrepair if tidal water flows through or over it.
We put Town owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who inspect walls before a citation does.
Free inspection, findings in writing, no obligation.
What a citation starts
It is a citable civil infraction under the Town code. The owner then has 60 days to show progress on the repair and 365 days to finish it.
Getting the repair permitted
The Town of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea issues the building permit after any required Broward County permit, and approval depends on SFWMD, FDEP and Army Corps sign-off where they apply.

Why it matters
Signs worth reporting
Water pooling in the yard after a high tide, open joints between panels, a cap pulling away from the backfill and soil settling behind the wall.
Note the date and tide height when you see water come through. It helps the inspector find the gap.
What a free inspection includes
A contractor comes to your property, looks at the structure above and below the waterline where needed, and tells you what is actually happening.
You get a written scope and estimate. No obligation, no trip fee.
- On-site assessment of the structure and surrounding soil
- Photos and a plain-English explanation of the problem
- Written estimate with scope and materials
- Repair versus replacement guidance where both are options
