MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA
Seawall Repair Miami Beach
Seawall repair in Miami Beach is built to Sec. 54-62: new walls, and walls getting a substantial improvement, must reach 5.7 feet NAVD88.
We connect owners on Biscayne Bay, Indian Creek, Sunset Harbor and the Venetian islands with licensed marine contractors who build to it.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
What counts as substantial
Seawall work costing $500 or more per linear foot is a substantial improvement under Sec. 54-61. Smaller repairs can go in at 4 feet NAVD88 if the wall is designed to be raised to 5.7 feet later.
Applicants submit an itemized seawall cost breakdown, and an as-built survey with an engineer’s certification afterwards.
City grants
The city has announced Private Property Adaptation grants of up to $20,000 per property for seawall work, paid back after the job is done.
Why it matters
Four permits
The city lists four for a seawall replacement: the Army Corps, the State of Florida, Miami-Dade RER (DERM Class I) and the City of Miami Beach building department.
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
