Services in Beaufort
What we do around Beaufort
Seawalls are the main job we do in Beaufort: cracked caps, open joints and lawns sinking behind the wall. We also build docks and install and repair boat lifts here. Each service has its own page, linked above.
City, county or Port Royal
A Beaufort mailing address does not tell you who issues your permit. Your lot may be in the City of Beaufort, in the Town of Port Royal or in unincorporated Beaufort County, and each has its own building office and buffer rules.
In the unincorporated county, a new bulkhead, riprap or erosion control structure more than 48 inches tall from existing ground needs plans certified by a South Carolina registered engineer. The City screens work against its critical area buffer. We confirm which office covers your parcel before we price the job.
The Beaufort River and nearby creeks
Walls on the Beaufort River take boat wake and a strong tide, so the base of the wall matters as much as the cap. Stone at the toe is often part of the repair.
Parts of the Beaufort River and Port Royal Harbor are federal channels, where docks and lifts have to keep a set distance from the channel edge. On smaller water such as Pigeon Point Creek or Battery Creek, the state's creek width rules decide what a dock can carry. We check the water in front of your lot first.
Questions

Do I need a permit to repair a seawall in Beaufort?
Often, yes. The state reviews work at the edge of tidal water, and the City, the Town of Port Royal or the County may want a building permit. Small repairs to a sound wall can count as maintenance. We check before quoting.
Does a seawall repair need an engineer?
Sometimes. In unincorporated Beaufort County, new shoreline structures over 48 inches tall need engineer-certified plans. A cap repair on a lower wall may not. We tell you which applies.
Do you travel to Beaufort from Bluffton?
Yes. Beaufort is part of our normal working area, along with Hilton Head Island.
