Seawall Repair Boca Raton
Seawall repair in Boca Raton needs plans approved by the Development Services Department and a city permit before any bulkhead goes in (Sec. 22-31).
We connect owners on the Intracoastal, Lake Boca Raton and the Hillsboro and C-15 canals with licensed marine contractors who handle that review.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
Two height figures to reconcile
City code sets a bulkhead minimum of plus 5.00 feet without naming a datum. The city’s engineering design standards call for a new or replaced seawall between 4.0 and 6.0 feet NAVD88, with room to add 12 to 18 inches later.
Ask the engineer which figure the city is applying to your permit, and get it in writing.
The wall is yours
Under Sec. 26-146, the water-side face of the seawall sits on the property line, and the owner maintains the wall and its cap.

Why it matters
Other agencies come first
The city issues no permit until the Army Corps, DEP, SFWMD and the Lake Worth Drainage District have approved where they apply (Sec. 22-58(8)).
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
