PANAMA CITY, FLORIDA

Seawall Inspection Panama City

Seawall inspection in Panama City is worth doing on any wall that went through Michael in 2018, when the city tide gauge peaked at 5.3 feet above mean higher high water and Tyndall Air Force Base saw 6 to 9 feet of water above ground (National Hurricane Center).

Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We put Panama City owners in touch with licensed marine contractors who inspect bay and bayou walls.

Free inspection, findings in writing, no obligation.

If repair is needed

In flood zone V, a repaired or new seawall needs a design professional’s analysis of wave effects (City Code Sec. 9-59). Bulkhead lines set by ordinance also limit where a wall can go (Sec. 5-4).
