FORT WALTON BEACH, FLORIDA
Seawall Repair Fort Walton Beach
Seawall repair in Fort Walton Beach must comply with FDEP and Army Corps rules, and a new or repaired wall may not channel stormwater into wetlands or open water (Fort Walton Beach LDC Sec. 5.01.15).
We connect Fort Walton Beach owners with licensed marine contractors who build to those rules.
Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.
Upkeep
The city requires seawalls, docks, piers and boathouses to be maintained in a safe and clean manner. A cracked cap or a wall leaning toward the water is worth fixing before it fails.
Why it matters
Other agencies
Okaloosa County’s code lists the Northwest Florida Water Management District, FDEP and the Army Corps among the other permits for waterfront work (Okaloosa LDC Sec. 1A.02.11). Confirm current city requirements with the Fort Walton Beach building office.
The National Hurricane Center’s Ivan report lists Okaloosa County surge at 6 to 9 feet in 2004.
