Submerged pilings, tree limbs, rip rap and other heavy debris all pose a threat. Even small things like fishing tackle, broken glass or rope can ruin a day. The sea bottom can change due to harsh weather, tides and currents. These changes can instantly bring trash, tackle and other debris to your dock, posing a risk to life and/or property. We are equipped to conduct professional bottom surveys around your existing dock as well as in preparation for a future dock installation.

You take your car to a mechanic, have HVAC professionals work on your AC, but keeping your dock in good condition requires the same level of professional inspection, maintenance and repair. When the pilings and cross bracings are neglected, excessive marine growth, deterioration, and marine borers can rapidly infect and destroy your investment causing thousands of dollars in damage. A dock inspection can catch the signs of a wood borer infestation, piling delignification or delamination early and protect your investment. We include a full inspection report that can be used as a baseline of your dock’s health. This is useful during potential future inspections, like after a major storm. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638639362633-FGGPN7K3ITHGKC9318EZ/Piling+2.jpg Dock Inspections - Preventative Maintenance The water in Florida doesn’t get cold enough to kill or slow the growth of marine borers. This means the attack on your dock by wood borers is year-round. Even the life of pressure treated lumber can be reduced to less than a decade because of wood borers like ship-worms, pholads, gribbles and pill bugs. By catching an infestation early, proactive measures can be taken. Wrapping pilings kills off existing borers and prevents new ones from attacking the structure. This wrap should be cleaned and inspected annually to make sure it is still doing its job. For more information on annual inspections, marine borers, or piling wrapping, visit our blog. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1625506889033-OTXU62WMD35EAC592N00/Piling+4.JPG Dock Inspections - Hidden Damage Pilings can look like new from the surface. Below, marine growth can hide severe damage from view. We remove marine growth during our inspections so that we can identify potential deteriorated areas that may be hidden by surface bio-fouling.

We wrap pilings from above the high tide line to below the mud line with 0.30 millimeter black vinyl. Wrapping pilings kills off existing borers and prevents new ones from attacking the structure. In addition to protecting your investment, our wrap is aesthetically pleasing. Pilings should be wrapped after they are driven. When pilings are wrapped prior to being driven, the wrap can be damaged. On bottom the wrap can be torn or ballooned out, making the wrap ineffective. We wrap the pilings after they have been driven, to ensure a proper and effective fit. Once we’ve wrapped your pilings, the first inspection is FREE. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1625587885632-P8LHO35Y1QLR4VJ032EK/GH010061_Moment%282%29.jpg Piling Services - Clean It.

Proper maintenance is important to ensure that this feature of your property remains structurally sound. The first step to seawall/bulkhead maintenance is an annual cleaning. Marine growth adds weight and can compromise the function of the seawall. A clean seawall/bulkhead: Clears the way for a visual inspection Is more aesthetically pleasing/increases curb appeal Avoids seawall replacement cost through regular maintenance Allows weep holes to drain properly https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/b018a048-7325-4cf2-94ce-bc1f8e4360ff/Sheet+pile.jpg Seawall and Sheet Pile - Inspection Services Once we clean a seawall or sheet pile, we will inspect it to provide a baseline to monitor erosion and deterioration. Changes to your seawall can be documented through frequent inspections. These inspections can be valuable, allowing for small repairs overtime and potentially preventing a costly replacement. We will inspect your seawall/bulkhead above and below the waterline for spalling, cracking, erosion, misalignment, sinkholes, settlement, corrosion and clogging. We also offer UT (Ultrasonic Testing) of sheet pile to measure steel thickness to determine the extent of steel loss due to corrosion. https://ekdiving.com/moorings daily 0.75 2021-11-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1637269389047-4Y6K5WZJXZAY8HID4IB4/unsplash-image-FDGDoO9Fy8c.jpg Mooring Maintenance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1637269895313-OR2ULLCSF2XB5UBZQHT6/GOPR0662.JPG Mooring Maintenance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1637272735631-KYNE69Q3QUJ8WYHE1GFB/MooringDiagram.jpg Mooring Maintenance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1637273506701-UXM7NLDCUWVFCSAZPGC1/Ecomoor_Synthetic_Mooring.jpg Mooring Maintenance https://ekdiving.com/floatingdocks daily 0.75 2021-11-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/191ccbd8-25a6-4b45-851a-b2314e4e9a99/Floating+Dock+Before+2.JPG Floating Docks - Clean it. Just like boats, floating docks require regular cleaning and maintenance. Heavy marine growth adds weight to the floating dock, placing unnecessary stress on hardware, gangway connections and support pilings. Cleanings are recommended at a minimum every year. Depending on salinity, floating docks may need to be cleaned on a more frequent basis.

Weather and tides can loosen hardware on your floating dock. Most floating dock manufacturers recommend an annual inspection. Once it’s clean, we can inspect it. All hardware is checked during the inspection. We will also check the alignment and hardware on the connection between the fixed dock and the floating dock. All loose hardware will be tightened and noted in the inspection report. Our full inspection report includes before and after photos of the cleaning, findings from the inspection and recommendations for repairs. https://ekdiving.com/floatingdock-marina daily 0.75 2022-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638365221875-R7G9A7GA00WVIQFXIZHF/unsplash-image-7xRYtIvtTvw.jpg Floating Docks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638365854832-E2JDP0FTAZL8BAOA6P6Q/unsplash-image-A-ozMmNf_PQ.jpg Floating Docks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638366255177-I0DPDF95K8UPUYS3FK1U/Floating+Dock+Before+and+After.png Floating Docks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/ab4a849b-8704-4be9-b3e9-28b7123a2aac/GOPR0196.JPG Floating Docks https://ekdiving.com/seawalls-and-sheet-pile-marina daily 0.75 2025-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638382495823-TRASKESVV2SEQTTMY03M/Bulkhead_Repairs_%2814357699350%29.jpg Seawalls and Sheet Pile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/579de4b5-8b44-481e-991c-b5eccd6b9d66/Seawall+before3CROPPED.png Seawalls and Sheet Pile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638383505293-Z1D64RZY5WT9MOCCFZW8/Delamination-and-spalling-at-exposed-concrete-are-examples-of-distress-and-deterioration.jpg Seawalls and Sheet Pile https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638383547548-BGPKEGIR79GRCDEBX5BI/unsplash-image-Wn8fHmOxAm8.jpg Seawalls and Sheet Pile https://ekdiving.com/marina-services daily 0.75 2022-06-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1625073493686-GBORESZ5INZ2NE8DD6F6/lake_dock_autumn_summer.jpg Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1637351846622-0D11VS3QFQO4MUYDJXE9/Ecomoor_Synthetic_Mooring.jpg Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638465048355-YESHLXSYC2JPWIBTK4PC/Bulkhead_Repairs_%2814357699350%29.jpg Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638473748594-SVA230Y93C0PCEWUJZXD/GOPR0744.JPG Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/ab4a849b-8704-4be9-b3e9-28b7123a2aac/GOPR0196.JPG Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638539681467-XQ84WMZIHMQHIF6ZIHHK/unsplash-image-Z_vjU1RBsL0.jpg Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638551484629-FKCBF59NBLXZGWFI6UCF/ISS054-E-24855_-_View_of_Earth.jpg Marina Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638638474675-DCWVP9LP40HN0L03XYUZ/IMG_5776.JPG Marina Services https://ekdiving.com/inspection-types daily 0.75 2021-12-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1618497259178-6XJGK9GR6YAVBQL5L519/20140301_Trade-151_012-2.jpg Inspections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1607694583486-2PQT0LQ193RL7MCB6DX4/20140228_Trade+151_0046.jpg Inspections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638544841410-Q5GL7TPRQIPDSQAIG3AT/unsplash-image-ZxGdri2EWzk.jpg Inspections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638551484629-FKCBF59NBLXZGWFI6UCF/ISS054-E-24855_-_View_of_Earth.jpg Inspections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/917a1b7a-66d3-44e3-9ba7-57d00fac1b1b/GOPR0055.JPG Inspections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1638553654003-J54BK4XDJCXE4VSM3013/unsplash-image-tUGLbI0fOfw.jpg Inspections https://ekdiving.com/piling-services-marina daily 0.75 2021-12-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6050b4057c48962521fe016c/1625587526798-NB3OOR03DL52RJF1R9RH/IMG_9640.JPG Marina Piling Services - Wrap It.
