3 Repair Jobs that Will Extend the Life of Your Seawall

Luxury waterfront propertiesWhen you own waterfront property, a well-maintained seawall is essential to its value and protection. Protecting the property from storm surges, corrosion, and damage can be stressful if you do not have the correct team on your side. Vogell Marine Inc. offers exceptional seawall repair in Palm Beach County to keep your property safe and beautiful.

When you are looking to extend the life of your protective seawall, the following three repair jobs are the best choice.

  1. Well Point Drainage System

A well point drainage system can help extend the life of your seawall by reducing the pressure that builds up against the structure. A series of well points are placed along a trench and then attached to a pump to help filter the pressure away from the site.

  1. Grouting Joints

When the joints begin to deteriorate, water can flow into areas it should not. By having these joints repaired with grout, the process is not only quicker but lasts longer than using organic materials.

  1. Secondary Anchors

Installing a secondary anchor to the seawall can extend its life by at least ten years. A second anchor can also be installed to support an existing anchor, which may be failing or not built properly to begin with.
