Learn moreWhy walls fail here
Fort Lauderdale is hard on seawalls
Porous limestone lets water move freely under and behind walls. Heavy yacht traffic drives wake scour along the New River and Intracoastal. Saltwater corrodes tieback rods and rebar. And every fall, king tides test cap height across the isles.
The city's seawall ordinance (Section 8-55.2) also sets expectations for elevation and upkeep, so repairs need to account for more than just the visible damage.
Read the ordinance guideLimestone voids
Soil disappears through porous rock, leaving hidden cavities.
Wake scour
Boat waves strip material from the toe of the wall.
Tieback corrosion
Rusting anchor rods let walls lean outward.
King tides
Seasonal high water overtops low or cracked caps.
