WILTON MANORS, FLORIDA

Seawall Inspection Wilton Manors

Seawall inspection in Wilton Manors looks for what city code calls disrepair: upland erosion, material passing through the wall, or tidal water flowing onto neighbors (Sec. 11-28).

Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We put Wilton Manors owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who inspect walls on the Middle River.

Free inspection, findings in writing, no obligation.

After a finding

The owner has 60 days to show progress and 365 days to complete the repair. A report from a private inspection lets you plan the work before that clock starts.

Permitting the fix

Repairs need a structural permit from Community Development Services, and the city says to apply with Broward County first.

Why it matters

What counts as erosion

Soil loss behind the cap, sinkholes in the lawn and sand on the canal side of the wall all point to material passing through. Those are the findings the city code names.

A free inspection tells you which one you are looking at.
