Seawall Inspection New Smyrna Beach
Seawall inspection in New Smyrna Beach covers walls on the Indian River, the Intracoastal and Callalisa Creek, the waters named in the city’s dock code (LDR Sec. 803.04).
We put New Smyrna Beach owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who inspect them.
Free inspection, findings in writing, no obligation.
After 2022
Ian and Nicole both hit Volusia County in 2022. The National Hurricane Center counted 1,378 damaged structures in the county from Ian alone.
The repeal
The city’s seawall article, former Sec. 26-771, was repealed in 2021, so no city height standard applies to canal and river walls.

Why it matters
Who permits the fix
DEP and Army Corps approval come first. The City of New Smyrna Beach building department follows, with Volusia County’s manatee review if dock work is included.
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
