What Goes Into a Concrete Seawall
A concrete seawall project depends on the shoreline, existing conditions, site access, project plans, and local requirements. Excavation, reinforcement, concrete construction, drainage, and backfill all play a role in how the project is completed.
Site Access & Preparation
The work area is evaluated and prepared based on shoreline access, existing conditions, and the requirements of the project.
Excavation, Forming & Reinforcement
Existing material is removed as needed, and the wall is formed and reinforced according to the project plans and site requirements.
Concrete Wall Construction
Concrete is placed to create the seawall, with tie-backs, anchors, caps, walkways, or other related components included when required by the project.
Drainage, Weep Holes & Backfill
Weep holes help water escape from behind the seawall and reduce water pressure against the wall. Drainage pipe, gravel backfill, and geotextile fabric are also installed as required by the project or inspection.
Our Concrete Seawall Construction Process
Every seawall project is different based on the shoreline, existing wall, site access, project plans, and local requirements. Once the project requirements are clear, our work generally follows these stages from site preparation through drainage and backfill.
1
Project Review & Estimate
We review the shoreline, existing conditions, access, and available project plans or requirements so we can understand the scope of work and provide an accurate estimate.
2
Excavation & Site Preparation
We remove existing material as needed, excavate along the shoreline, and prepare the work area for the new or replacement seawall.
3
Forming, Reinforcement & Concrete
The seawall is formed, reinforced, and poured according to the project requirements, including tie-backs, anchors, caps, or related concrete work when required.
4
Drainage & Backfill
We install the required drainage components, which may include weep holes, drainage pipe, gravel backfill, and geotextile fabric. We then complete the backfill and clean up our work area.

Concrete Seawall FAQs
Answers to common questions about concrete seawall construction, replacement, site access, drainage, project requirements, and what to expect during the work.
How do I know if my existing seawall needs to be replaced?
Cracking, leaning, movement, deterioration, washout, or repeated problems behind the wall can all be signs that a seawall needs attention. We can look at the existing conditions and discuss whether repair or replacement appears appropriate for the project.
Do you build new seawalls and replace existing seawalls?
Yes. B&P Concrete handles new concrete seawall construction, complete seawall replacement, and partial repairs when the existing wall and site conditions make repair practical.
Do you handle excavation and removal of the existing seawall?
Yes. When required for the project, we handle excavation, removal of existing material, shoreline preparation, forming, reinforcement, and the concrete work involved in constructing the new seawall.
How is drainage handled behind a concrete seawall?
Drainage is an important part of seawall construction. Depending on the project requirements, the drainage system may include weep holes, drainage pipe, gravel backfill, and geotextile fabric to help water escape from behind the wall and reduce pressure against it.
Do you provide seawall engineering, plans, or permits?
B&P Concrete can obtain required permits for the seawall construction when needed. Permit, inspection, and testing requirements vary by city, lake community, association, and project, and many seawall projects do not require them. We do not provide structural engineering, surveying, or project design services.
How long does a concrete seawall project take?
Most concrete seawall projects take about 2–4 weeks, depending on the size of the project, site access, existing conditions, and the amount of excavation and concrete work involved. Required inspections, testing, weather, and lake-community or association requirements can also affect the schedule.
