Seawall Inspections

A visual condition evaluation of seawalls on Tampa Bay waterfront properties, so you know what you're buying.

Know the Condition of Your Seawall

On a waterfront property, the seawall protects the land, the home, and the yard from the water. A seawall inspection visually evaluates the accessible portions of the seawall and its cap for cracking, separation, leaning, settling, and erosion or sinkholes behind the wall.

Seawall repairs and replacements can be among the most expensive items on a waterfront property, so buyers should know the wall's condition before they close.

Waterfront Homes Need Waterfront Inspections

From Apollo Beach and St. Petersburg to Tampa and the Pinellas beaches, Tampa Bay has thousands of seawalls exposed to tides, storms, and boat wakes. Even small cracks can let soil wash out behind the wall.

Our seawall inspection is a visual evaluation from the property. When findings call for it, we'll recommend evaluation by a marine contractor or engineer.
