Boardwalk Repairs

What This Service Involves

Our crews repair boardwalks at nature preserves, waterfront parks, and wetland trails where decking, joists, and pilings have weathered or failed. We replace deteriorated deck boards and framing with materials rated for constant moisture and add slip-resistant surfacing where algae growth creates hazards. Work over sensitive wetlands and shorelines follows your critical-areas permits and best-management practices. Structural repairs to pilings and bearing members are coordinated with your engineer where the condition warrants.
