Concrete seawall cap along a Palm Coast waterway

PALM COAST, FLORIDA

Seawall Repair Palm Coast

Seawall repair in Palm Coast is built to LDC Sec. 4.01.06: on the saltwater canals, the cap top sits at 2.5 feet NAVD88 or matches the neighbors’ caps, with a 12 inch exposed face.

Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We connect Palm Coast owners with licensed marine contractors who build to it.

Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.

Owners own the walls

A Palm Coast councilman put it plainly in 2018: if you own the property, the seawall is yours to maintain (FlaglerLive). The city’s canal license covers the dock, not the wall.

Materials

Walls are reinforced concrete or vinyl, grey and unpainted, on the property line. A floating turbidity barrier is required during the work.

Why it matters

Permit and backfill

A City of Palm Coast building permit is required for new walls, reconstruction and repair, and a seawall permit can come before the house permit. Contractors must backfill within 30 days.

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

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
