Port St. Lucie, FL Seawall Repair

There are many things to do here, especially outdoor activities including fantastic fishing, wonderful golf, and all types of boating. It seems that there is water everywhere, with the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the intracoastal waterways between the mainland and Hutchinson Island, and the St. Lucie River dominating Palm City and Stuart on its way out to the ocean near Sewells Point.

This, of course, brings us to the subject of seawalls and their importance. When you look at Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Palm City, Jensen Beach, and the surrounding towns from a satellite view, it’s overwhelming how many homes and businesses are located right on the water. If anyone understands the importance of maintaining a seawall, it is the residents of this area.

Florida Seawall Solutions has helped many residents and businesses maintain the integrity of their seawalls. Folks in this area understand that seawalls need regular inspections and often a little attention.

During an inspection, a Stuart or Port St. Lucie resident should be looking for cracks in the cap, cracks in the vertical seawall panels, little potholes, or sinkholes along the inside of the wall, and soil deposits on the outside of the wall near the seawall seams. If any of these symptoms exist, the resident or business owner should have a professional seawall company inspect the wall and recommend steps to remediate. Often these repairs are relatively simple, including injecting a polyurethane resin into the soil near the wall to fill in any voids, strengthen the soil, and seal the wall. Often, Florida Seawall Solutions installs jet filters to help the tidal ebb and flow through the wall, as many walls in the Stuart area were not built with jet filters installed.
