But that’s not the only option – at Deep South Dock and Piling Restoration®, we may be able to repair the existing structure, a more affordable option. Strengthening and rebuilding pilings can give them the strength of a new construction. Replacing can actually damage the structure in some instances. You can repair, restore and protect pilings in order to ensure protection for your property.

Driving new pilings puts surrounding property at risk, but repairing and rebuilding can offer a better solution. Pests and plants can destroy pilings over time and cause the dock to degrade. Our process includes wrapping the pilings in order to keep out wood boring worms that cause most of the damage. We inspect every inch of your structure before we begin and after the job is done so we can ensure the stability of the structure and that it will be safe for your friends and family.

We build, restore and then seal the project and then wrap it to keep aways pests and plants. Protecting your pilings can cost thousands less than replacing or restoring them down the road due to damage.
