Seawall Repair for Bay Harbor Islands waterfront properties
Langley Coastal has a variety of tried and true methods for repairing and restoring all types of seawalls. First, we identify what issues your Bay Harbor Islands seawall is having, with thorough inspections that include underwater photos and videos of its condition and potential repair methods.
Then we recommend the repair: simple hydraulic cement crack repairs, major repairs with new forms and rebar, or high-density polyurethane foam injection. To stop water and sediment flowing through fractures or voids in the footer, we use NCFI's Terra-Lok™ foam.
Making the necessary repairs as quickly as possible can reduce the need for heavily intrusive excavating in the future and save money. More about seawall repair.
Seawall Repair in Bay Harbor Islands: what's specific here
The rule in Bay Harbor Islands: No town minimum seawall elevation ordinance was found. [bayharborislands-fl.gov] Which means a repair that keeps the existing wall is often the practical route, and a rebuild has to meet the new elevation.
The town's vulnerability study projected 2020 king tides flooding about 21 acres (16 acres of roads, 5 of property) up to 1 ft deep on Broadview Drive and Bay Harbor Drive, rising to 1.7 ft above ground by 2030 [bayharborislands-fl.gov] That is the kind of water pressure that opens cracks and washes soil out from behind a Bay Harbor Islands seawall.
