Piling repair and replacement

Pilings hold up your dock and your lift, and they take a beating from tides, ice and storms. If you're in Sea Bright, Monmouth Beach, Oceanport, Little Silver, Rumson or Long Branch, call and we'll connect you with a local marine contractor who can check your pilings and replace the ones that are done.

Pilings damaged after ice or a storm? Say so when you call.

Signs a piling needs attention

Leaning, or moving when the dock is loaded
Worn thin like an hourglass near the waterline
Splits, soft spots or missing chunks
Pulled up or shifted after the river freezes and thaws
Loose or rusted bolts where the dock connects

After ice or a storm

Stay off a dock that's leaning, sagging or moving more than it should.
Take dated photos of the damage from the shore.
Move the boat if it's tied to pilings that look loose, if you can do it safely.
Call us to get a local marine contractor out for a look.
Keep receipts for any emergency work.

Repair or replace

Some damaged pilings can be wrapped, sleeved or braced. Others need to be pulled and a new one driven in its place. Your contractor will tell you which makes sense and whether the work needs a permit.
