Seawall & Retaining Wall FAQs

How do I know if my seawall needs repair?

Cracks, corrosion, concrete deterioration, soil loss, movement, or erosion behind the seawall can indicate that repairs may be needed. White Hawk can evaluate visible conditions and coordinate with engineering professionals when required.

When should a seawall be repaired versus replaced?

The appropriate approach depends on the seawall’s condition, extent of deterioration, structural integrity, and site conditions. Localized damage may be repairable, while significant deterioration or structural failure may require more extensive rehabilitation or replacement.

What are signs that a retaining wall needs repair?

Cracking, leaning, bulging, movement, drainage problems, or soil erosion around the wall can indicate deterioration or structural concerns. The cause should be evaluated before determining the appropriate repair.

Do seawalls and retaining walls require permits in Miami-Dade County?

Many seawall and structural retaining-wall projects require permits and may require engineered plans or additional regulatory approvals depending on the property and scope. White Hawk coordinates applicable permitting, engineering, inspections, and construction requirements.

Can you help with shoreline erosion and drainage issues?

Yes. Depending on site conditions and the approved project scope, solutions may include seawall repairs, riprap or rock reinforcement, drainage improvements, retaining walls, and related site work.

Does White Hawk handle the entire seawall or retaining wall project?
