Palm Beach County · Boynton Beach
Along the Intracoastal and Boynton's eastern streets the water table runs high and the grade drops to the seawall — a wall here lives or dies on the drainage behind it.
Boynton Beach's best hardscape work is on the water and to the east — the Intracoastal waterfront, Harbor Estates, Chapel Hill, Lake Eden. Many of these 1960s–90s homes sit on lots where the grade steps down toward the seawall and the ground stays damp, so a retaining wall has to hold that grade against a high water table without leaning over time.
Near the Intracoastal, the pressure behind a wall is everything. We build a compacted base for ground that stays wet, a segmental block or stone-veneer face, and a full weep-and-drainage system behind it so water escapes instead of building up and pushing the wall out. Seal the face and it shrugs off the salt too.
Above the retaining work, a seat wall around a patio or fire pit is a natural add on these waterfront lots, capped to match your pavers. Boynton is a mix — some waterfront pockets are non-HOA, some newer streets run an HOA — so we confirm which applies, prepare the submittal if there is one, and pull the City of Boynton Beach permit either way.
Waterfront lots near the Intracoastal sit on a high water table with grade dropping to the seawall — we build the base for damp ground and a weep-drainage system behind every retaining wall so pressure never bulges the face.
It will when it is built for the water table. Near the Intracoastal we build a compacted base for damp ground and a weep-and-drainage system behind the wall, so hydrostatic pressure escapes instead of pushing the face out over time.
Yes, and it suits these lots well. We set a low capped seat wall around the patio or fire pit and match the cap to your pavers so it reads as part of the same design as the rest of the hardscape.
It depends on your street — waterfront pockets are often non-HOA, while newer communities have one. We check first, prepare the HOA package if it is needed, and pull the City of Boynton Beach permit regardless.
It depends on the length, height, material and site prep, which is why the on-site visit and written estimate are free and itemized. Financing through Wisetack is available so the budget does not decide the timeline.
