Seawall Inspection

When to get one

Most owners wait until something is visibly wrong. By then the repair is bigger.

• Before buying a waterfront property
• After a hurricane or major storm surge
• When the yard behind the wall starts settling
• Every three to five years as routine maintenance
• When a neighbor’s wall fails — soil loss travels

Why it matters

What the inspection actually covers

The visible face of a seawall tells you very little. Most failures start below the waterline or behind the panels where nobody looks.

A proper inspection checks the cap, panels, joints, tiebacks, and weep holes, and looks for voids in the soil behind the wall.

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
