Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We connect Everglades City owners with licensed marine contractors who work the area’s waterfront.

Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.

Check with the city first

We could not find Everglades City’s seawall rules in a published code, so confirm local permit requirements with the city before work starts. Collier County’s rules cover unincorporated land, not the city.

State permits

Work below mean high water usually needs state review from FDEP and may need the Army Corps. Your contractor should confirm which apply before quoting the job.

Why it matters

What to look at

After surge of 4 to 6 feet above ground, check the seawall cap, the joints and the soil behind the wall for settling or holes. Charley in 2004 brought sustained winds of 40 knots and gusts of 55 knots at the Everglades City airport (National Hurricane Center).

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