FAQ

Bulkheads in Wrightsville Beach, NC — questions answered

Do you build bulkheads in Wrightsville Beach, NC?

Yes. We build bulkheads throughout Wrightsville Beach and the surrounding New Hanover County area. Our shop is at 312 Olde Point Loop in Hampstead, NC — a short drive to every Wrightsville Beach bulkhead. Call (910) 612-6107 for a free site visit.

What does a bulkheads cost in Wrightsville Beach, NC?

Free site evaluation. Bulkhead pricing depends on wall length and height, sheet material, anchor access, and how much of the existing wall can stay — we send a written, itemized estimate within one business day of the visit. Permit cost varies by New Hanover County CAMA review. We provide a written, itemized estimate within one business day.

Do you handle CAMA permits for Wrightsville Beach projects?

Yes. Wrightsville Beach falls under New Hanover County CAMA general permits, and we walk every application through with you. We measure twice and lay out the dock on paper before any piling drives. Most Wrightsville Beach lots have less than 30 feet of frontage.

Do I need a CAMA permit to replace a bulkhead?

Almost always, yes. Replacing or repairing a bulkhead in its existing alignment usually fits a CAMA general permit; moving the wall waterward or building new through marsh takes more review. We confirm which applies before we quote and file the paperwork with you.

Vinyl or wood?

Vinyl does not rot, does not feed marine borers, and outlasts timber on salt and brackish water, which is why it is our default on the coast. Pressure-treated timber still makes sense on freshwater lakes, for short walls, and when matching an existing timber wall.
