Seawall Repair for Holmes Beach 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 Holmes Beach 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 Holmes Beach: what's specific here
The rule in Holmes Beach: Code Sec. 66-106 adopts Drawing No. 1104 (May 7, 1973, rev. Oct 18, 1978) as the city's seawall construction standard with building-code force. [cms9files1.revize.com] Which means a repair that keeps the existing wall is often the practical route, and a rebuild has to meet the new elevation.
City recovery updates: Helene's surge flooded nearly all ground-level properties; Milton's surge was about 20 inches less than Helene's; most Milton damage was to bayside docks, piers, boats and seawalls plus wind damage [holmesbeachfl.org] That is the kind of water pressure that opens cracks and washes soil out from behind a Holmes Beach seawall.
