Expert Bulkhead Construction and Repair in Jacksonville, Florida

Bulkheads are used to combat the significant issue of shoreline erosion that threatens waterfront properties and local infrastructure in Northeast Florida. These structures act as a barrier, preventing the relentless waves and rising tides from encroaching upon and eroding coastal land. Beyond protecting residential properties, bulkhead construction also plays a vital role in conserving public spaces and natural habitats, ensuring that wildlife ecosystems remain intact. In addition to safeguarding against erosion, bulkheads help mitigate flood risk, which is a crucial consideration given the susceptibility of  the Jacksonville area to hurricanes and tropical storms. By providing a robust defense mechanism, bulkheads ensure that the waterfront areas remain safe, stable, and enjoyable for both residents and visitors alike.

At Docks, Decks and More in Jacksonville, we understand that bulkhead construction and repair are essential for protecting your most significant investment—your home. You have the option to choose from vinyl or wood. We ensure that the poles we use are driven deep into the ground for maximum stability. Additionally, we install a tieback rod on every pole for added support. For wooden bulkheads, we place a filter cloth on the back, allowing water to pass through while preventing soil erosion. The tieback rods, anchored with concrete and pole butts, provide further reinforcement to the wall.

In addition to our commitment to protecting your property and home, we also prioritize environmental sustainability in our marine construction services.  We use environmentally friendly materials and techniques, ensuring that our projects have minimal impact on the surrounding natural habitats.
