Seawall Construction & Repair Services
Our dedication is preferred by homeowners, trusted by contractors and developers, and sets industry standards. Gibson Marine Construction specializes in superior seawall construction, using only the industry’s leading products. Construction of a seawall requires quality materials and advanced technology in order to prevent erosion and to withstand strong winds and high waves. A seawall, also known as a bulkhead or retaining wall, keeps the water from eroding the soil back into the water. Each seawall project has its own set of unique requirements. The stability of any seawall is dependent upon variables such as wall height, sheet pile length and strength, wale system, backfill, foundation soil and tide.
Homeowners and developers are looking at new ways to protect their properties due to the frequency of storms and hurricanes. The challenges of owning waterfront property include storm surges causing erosion, UV damage to traditional materials, corrosion of aluminum and steel, and deterioration caused by marine borers that thrive on pressure-treated lumber. Our design team will work with you from start to finish on designing and constructing your seawall in order to protect your most valuable investment. Our standard is using top-quality products and exceptional design to ensure we meet each job’s unique challenges.
We use the highest performance vinyl and composite sheet piling backed with a 50-year warranty. Our product’s warranty guarantees against rust, rot, corrosion, falling prey to marine borers, or UV damage from the sun. Because commercial marinas or waterfront residences may require a seawall made of stone (rip rap), concrete, or treated specialty wood, we can accommodate according to your specific needs.
Preventative vs Reactive
Neglecting to maintain a seawall could result in property damage, loss of land, and decreased property value. Regular repairs, maintenance, and reinforcement of a seawall ensure a longer lifespan and can eliminate the need for costly emergency repair or replacement. Repairing an existing seawall can also incorporate new technologies, materials, and construction methods that offer better protection against damage. A properly functioning seawall can reduce erosion, protect marine wildlife, and help preserve the natural beauty of a shoreline.

EXCELLENT Based on 72 reviews Team Richardson 727March 20, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gibson Marine went above and beyond with our seawall and backyard. Starting with Mike coming out explaining everything and giving us a very fair estimate for the amount of work they had to do. Then getting updates from Candace when the permits and job was starting was on point. The crew of 5 guys that came out were hands down best workers we have seen. They built us a brand new seawall and brought in over 5 trucks of dirt to level our yard in like 6 days! The were so professional and worked nonstop. We are happy we went with Gibson Marine and would recommend them to anyone that needs a seawall. Dawn SantosMarch 15, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a tremendous experience with Gibson Marine. Mike, Candace, Greg, and all the crew members were so easy to work with and there was constant communication. Our new seawall is absolutely beautiful!! It's no wonder they do this work on all the homes in our neighborhood. As homeowners, we have found it challenging to find companies that actually follow through so if you are looking for a business that will respond quickly and get the job done right, call them. If we had to do it all over again, I would, without hesitation, work with them again. Thanks for all the hard work that was done to improve our property. We are happy customers :-) -Lake Tarpon Laura MinervaFebruary 27, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The staff really worked hard even in the rain. Everything was cleaned up & fresh sod to some of the areas in our yard. We are very happy!

Evaluated many seawall contractors and man am I glad I went with Gibson Marine, I am blessed to have picked the right company. I was very particular with how to sister and join the original dock to the moved pilings and they really got it right. They even used the stainless tackle I provided and added to it. They also came back and put every single thing back where it goes, which I appreciated being injured a little bit currently. The seawall itself is a work of art. PJ Paver did a great job as did Di’Mond electrician. IMHO Gibson Marine sets itself apart in the Pinellas sea wall market. Thanks guys!
