Do you build fixed piers in Carolina Beach, NC?

What does a fixed piers cost in Carolina Beach, NC?
Free site evaluation. Most residential fixed piers fall in the $18,000 – $60,000 range depending on length and head shape, plus permits. 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 Carolina Beach projects?
Yes. Carolina Beach falls under New Hanover County CAMA general permits, and we walk every application through with you. On Carolina Beach, yes. The fetch from the Cape Fear and the basin runs hard in a southwest wind, and unbraced piers walk over time.
How deep do you drive pilings?
We drive every piling to refusal — usually 12 to 20 feet depending on the bottom. We do not stop short to save time.
Will my pier survive a hurricane?
No builder can promise a pier will survive every storm, and you should be wary of one who does. What we can promise is the engineering standard: every piling driven to refusal, 316 stainless hardware on every saltwater connection, and roof framing sized for the local wind zone. Those three things are what separate the piers that ride out a hurricane from the ones that do not.
