Sarasota's waterfront communities — from Bird Key to Siesta Key — are some of the most beautiful in Florida, and keeping those waterfront investments protected starts with a sound seawall. Seawall Repairs by Solid Foundations serves all of Sarasota County with proven non-invasive repair methods: polyurethane injection, helical tiebacks, and relief drain installation. Most repairs complete in one to two days. Call 866-398-9323 for your free Sarasota seawall inspection.
Over 80% of Sarasota Bay's shoreline is hardened. Inside the City of Sarasota, the zoning code limits the top of a seawall to 7.27 ft NAVD88, and plans must show no harm to neighboring properties. Low walls can be overtopped during storms, which saturates the backfill and speeds up soil loss. Our relief drain installation program, which adds weep holes at the optimal height to equalize hydrostatic pressure, is a cost-effective preventive measure for Sarasota Bay seawall owners.
For walls that are leaning, our page on helical tieback installation in Sarasota explains how anchors are added.

Our Sarasota bulkhead repair page covers cracked panels, failing caps and loose tie-backs on walls that can still be saved. If repair is no longer practical, Sarasota bulkhead replacement explains what goes into a full rebuild. Walls that have started to tip or bulge are the focus of Sarasota seawall reinforcement. When a dock, pier or boat lift is sinking or shifting, see Sarasota marine foundation repair. To slow wave scour at the toe of a wall or along a natural bank, read about Sarasota riprap installation. Stone slopes that have slumped or thinned out are covered in Sarasota revetment maintenance. For a regular look at your whole waterfront, Sarasota shoreline maintenance explains a steady inspection routine. New walls, docks and piers are covered on our Sarasota marine construction page.
If voids or soil loss behind the wall are the issue, our page on polyurethane injection explains how that method works. When you are ready to talk about your own wall, get in touch with our team.
"Our Bird Key seawall had visible cracking and water was weeping through the panel. Solid Foundations fixed it with polyurethane injection in one day. Zero mess, zero excavation. Professional from start to finish."
