KEY LARGO, FLORIDA
Seawall Inspection Key Largo
Seawall inspection in Key Largo is worth doing on any canal lot that took water in 2017, when Hurricane Irma left a high-water mark 4.11 feet above ground here (National Hurricane Center).
We put Key Largo owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who inspect canal walls.
Free inspection, findings in writing, no obligation.
Canal water quality
Monroe County’s canal management plan ranks 96 canals in unincorporated Monroe County with poor or fair water quality. In Key Largo, the county has restored Canal 84 in Rock Harbor and Canal 90 between Hilson Court and Ivanhoe Court.
What a report covers
Cap cracks, joint gaps, tie-backs, toe scour and soil loss behind the wall. The yard behind a bulkhead must stay at least 6 inches below the top of the wall, so grade changes show up in the report too.
Why it matters
If repair is needed
A deteriorated wall that was lawfully built may be repaired or replaced in its footprint (Monroe County LDC Sec. 118-12). State and federal permits come before the county Notice to Proceed, and riprap goes at the toe wherever feasible.
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
