Seawall Replacement & Rebuilding
Full removal and rebuild for seawalls that are too far gone to repair — engineered to current standards and built to last.
Call (561) 555-0147When a seawall has widespread panel failure, a rotated or leaning face, lost tiebacks, or significant soil loss behind it, patch repairs won't hold. A full replacement removes the failing structure and rebuilds it correctly from the footing up — properly engineered for the soil conditions, tidal range, and boat traffic at your specific property.
We handle the full scope: demolition of the old wall, new sheet piling or panel installation, tieback and anchor systems, cap pour, and backfill — coordinated with permitting so the finished wall is built to last, not just built to pass.
Signs You May Need This Service
- Visible leaning, bowing, or rotation of the wall face
- Widespread panel cracking across most of the wall's length
- Major sinkholes or voids forming in the yard behind the wall
- Failed or disconnected tieback rods
- A wall that has already failed a professional inspection
- Repeated patch repairs that keep reappearing in the same spots
Our Process
Engineering & permitting
We evaluate soil conditions and water depth, design the replacement wall accordingly, and manage the permitting process with local and state agencies.
Demolition & removal
The failing wall is removed section by section to avoid destabilizing the adjacent shoreline and neighboring structures.
New wall installation
New sheet piling, panels, or precast sections are driven and set, with tieback rods and deadmen anchors installed per the engineered design.
Cap, backfill & finish grading
We pour the new cap, backfill and compact behind the wall, and restore grading so your yard and landscaping tie back in cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a full seawall replacement take?
Most residential replacements take several weeks from permitting to completion, depending on wall length, access, and county permit review times. We give you a realistic timeline before work starts.
Do I need a permit to replace my seawall?
Yes. Seawall work in Palm Beach County typically requires permitting through the county and, depending on location, state or federal agencies. We manage that process for you.
Will you use the same material as my old wall?
Not necessarily — we recommend the best material for your specific soil, water depth, and budget, whether that's poured concrete, precast panels, or vinyl sheet piling, and walk you through the tradeoffs.
