Concrete seawall cap along a Navarre waterway

NAVARRE, FLORIDA

Seawall Repair Navarre

Seawall repair in Navarre needs a Santa Rosa County building permit even for repair work, a floating turbidity barrier before work starts, and backfill within 30 days of finishing (County Code Sec. 10-151).

Licensed Permits handled Florida waterfront

We connect Navarre owners on Santa Rosa Sound and the canals with licensed marine contractors who build to it.

Free inspection, a written scope, no obligation.

After the wall goes in

At least 5 feet behind the wall must be sodded or stabilized. Vertical seawalls on the county’s named canals need effective tie-backs, must stay vertical and must not leak.

Why it matters

State and federal first

All state and federal permits must be in hand before demolition or construction (Sec. 10-150). On canal lots, seawalls sit on or behind the property line (LDC Sec. 5.02.04).

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