KEY WEST, FLORIDA
Seawall Inspection Key West
Seawall inspection in Key West pays off because replacing a wall is hard: city code allows hardening only when erosion is a critical peril and vegetation has failed, with riprap as the first alternative (City Code Sec. 110-182).
We put Key West owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who inspect walls on Garrison Bight and the island’s shorelines.
Free inspection, findings in writing, no obligation.
What a report covers
Cap cracks, joint gaps, toe scour and soil loss behind the wall. Catching these early keeps a repair inside the existing wall instead of a new structure that needs agency approval below mean high water (Sec. 118-361).
Why it matters
Coastal setback
The Coastal Construction Control Line setback does not apply to piers, docks or seawalls (Sec. 122-1148), but the shoreline rules and agency permits still do.
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
