BULKHEAD INSPECTION:
​
Bulkheads are found on waterfront property. They are the wall you see where the land meets the water and are used to keep the soil from being washed away.
​
Bulkheads can be constructed from wood, metal, stone or concrete and usually consists of piles being driven into the ground with a wall then attached to the piles. Soil is then placed against the bulkhead on the land side. A bulkhead that has failed can allow the adjacent water to then erode away the soil and eventually cause the adjacent house or building to collapse.
​
As a bulkhead is in water it should be inspected by a professional to insure that it is sound.
