Narrow access lanes in coastal properties require mini track loaders. We lay heavy rubber protection mats to safeguard paved driveways and canal seawalls.
Yard Reclamation Strategy
We finish with structural coarse sand capped with organic sandy loam, ready for salt-tolerant native lawns, stone paving, or pool deck extensions.

"Fort Lauderdale properties sit over highly porous Biscayne Aquifer limestone and permeable coastal sands. Because the local water table routinely starts at depths of only 2 to 4 feet, excavations are highly prone to immediate water infiltration and sidewall slumping. Decommissioning requires continuous operation of dewatering pumps, structural bottom shell puncturing, and wrapping select fill with geotextile fabric to prevent sediment washing and soil liquefaction."
