What Causes Seawall Damage in Fort Myers
The Caloosahatchee River's current, tidal influence, and boat wake put constant pressure on seawalls in Fort Myers, and water finding its way through small cracks accelerates soil loss behind the wall over time.
How We Fix It
We repair failing seawalls with Targeted Grout Injection — pumping a hydrophobic polyurethane resin, Prime Flex 910, through a 3/8" port to seal leaks and fill the voids that have opened up behind the wall. The resin cures underwater, is NSF/ANSI certified, and meets Florida DOT specifications for chemical grout injection of soil. Caught early, it's a far less invasive and less expensive fix than a full wall replacement.
