SEAWALLS
We install Everlast Vinyl Products Seawalls made in Woodstock, Georgia
Why are so many people choosing vinyl sheet piling?
Vinyl sheet piling is quickly becoming the most popular product to use for the construction of bulkheads and seawalls.
Materials like wood and concrete have been widely used in the past, but their use is becoming virtually obsolete. With the advent of vinyl sheet piling, homeowners with lakefront properties can now rely on the newest manufacturing technology to receive the best product on the market today.
Cost Efficiency
Vinyl is a better value. The real measure of this is not just the comparison of costs for the initial installation; you also need to figure in the costs over the long term. Since vinyl sheet piling lasts much longer than more traditional materials, the cost of repairs and replacement is delayed.
In fact, should you ever decide to sell, your buyer can rest assured that the seawall will last a very long time. That’s added value to your property.
When your seawalls are constructed with materials that are not as durable they will fail significantly sooner than our state-of-the-art solutions.
Consistent Appearance
It is well known that wood fades over time. Paint may cover that up, but the paint color will fade as well. There is really not a lot you can do about that except continue to paint in order to keep it looking nice. Vinyl, on the other hand, holds the same beautiful appearance for a very long time.
UV Resistance
Most materials react negatively to the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun, and it doesn’t take very long for that to start happening. When the time period is stretched out over years, the sun can do some real damage.
Vinyl sheet piling is designed to be resistant to this, so the effects of the sun are not as serious or as quick.
Easy Installation
Vinyl sheet piling provides for an easy installation, particularly compared to wood. Wood is subject to imperfections, warping, and various deformities. This can sometimes cause problems or delays at the time of the installation. Vinyl does not have that problem.
Unlike wood, vinyl does not grow in nature; the components of a vinyl seawall are manufactured to some very strict and precise standards. There is virtually no room for error, so you are able to have a consistent product each time. This means an easy installation. For you as the homeowner, it means that the disruption on your property is finished quickly – a lot of homeowners really like that part.
Better Warranty
With all of the advantages listed above, it only makes sense that vinyl sheet piling comes with a full 50 year manufacturer’s warranty. This starts from the date of purchase.
Vinyl will last a long time, so ESP backs that up with a fantastic warranty. East Coast Marine Services is a Certified dealer, and rest assured that your new seawall is covered by the lengthy warranty period.
As mentioned above, wood is now obviously obsolete. The same can now be said for aluminum, steel and concrete; each is now overshadowed by the many advantages of vinyl.
We install & maintain seawalls across the state of Michigan
Living on a waterfront property comes with breathtaking views and a unique lifestyle, but it also requires thoughtful measures to protect your property from the ever-changing forces of nature. One crucial investment that waterfront property owners should consider is the installation of a new seawall. Here’s why having a new seawall put in is important:
Erosion Prevention: A seawall acts as a robust barrier against erosion caused by waves and currents. It helps maintain the integrity of the shoreline, preventing the gradual loss of land that can occur over time. By installing a new seawall, you safeguard your property from erosion and preserve the stability of the coastal landscape.
Property Protection: Waterfront properties are susceptible to damage from storm surges, boat traffic and other water-related events. A well-constructed seawall provides a crucial line of defense, acting as a buffer to minimize the impact of these natural occurrences. It helps protect your home, landscaping, and other structures from the potentially destructive forces of a river or lake.
Long-Term Cost Savings: While the initial investment in a new seawall may seem significant, it can translate into long-term cost savings. By preventing erosion and minimizing property damage, you reduce the need for frequent and expensive repairs. A properly installed seawall is a durable solution that pays off over time by extending the lifespan of your coastal property.
Preserving Aesthetics and Property Value: Beyond its functional benefits, a new seawall contributes to the aesthetic appeal of your waterfront property. It can enhance the overall visual appeal of your shoreline while maintaining property value. Potential buyers are often attracted to well-protected waterfront homes, making a seawall installation a valuable investment in both present enjoyment and future resale potential.
Stabilizing Soil and Foundation: Erosion not only affects the visible shoreline but can also undermine the stability of the soil and foundation of your property. A seawall serves as a stabilizing force, preventing soil erosion and maintaining the integrity of the land beneath your structures.
Compliance with Regulations: In many coastal areas, local regulations may require property owners to take measures to protect against erosion and maintain environmental sustainability. Installing a new seawall ensures compliance with these regulations, preventing potential legal issues and promoting responsible coastal development.
Investing in a new seawall is a proactive and essential step in safeguarding your waterfront property. It not only protects against the immediate threats of erosion and storm surges but also contributes to the long-term resilience and value of your waterfront home. Give us a call to explore the best seawall options for your specific needs and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a well-protected waterfront property.
