Pile replacement, decking restoration & pontoon servicing across the Clyde River estuary and Eurobodalla coastline.
Get a Free Quote →Batemans Bay sits at the mouth of the Clyde River, where freshwater flow meets oceanic tidal influence. This estuarine environment is particularly aggressive on timber structures — the mixing of fresh and salt water creates ideal conditions for both marine borers in the lower zone and fungal rot in the splash zone above.
Upstream from the bridge at Nelligen, the river narrows and current increases, scouring around pile bases during flood events. Downstream around Catalina and the town wharf precinct, tidal flow and boat wash are the primary stressors. Surf Beach, Malua Bay and Long Beach properties face open ocean exposure with salt spray accelerating above-water timber degradation.
Our Batemans Bay repair work accounts for these varied conditions — heavier pile embedment in the scour-prone upper river, borer-resistant species in the tidal zone, and UV-stabilised coatings for ocean-exposed decking.
Replace borer-damaged or flood-undermined piles with H6-treated hardwood rated for the Clyde River's estuarine conditions. $500–$2,000 per pile.
Re-deck with durable hardwood, replace corroded fixings with 316 stainless and rebuild cross-bracing compromised by flood debris or age.
Re-float sinking pontoons, replace failed floatation modules and service mooring pile connections. Essential maintenance for Clyde River berths.
Full structural survey with pile sounding, scour assessment and decking condition report. Includes photo documentation and prioritised repair plan. From $300–$800.
The Clyde River is prone to significant flood events that scour pile bases and deposit debris against jetty structures. After a flood, we provide rapid structural assessments to determine whether your jetty is safe to use and scope any repairs needed before the next event.
The Clyde River estuary's mix of flood scour, tidal borer exposure and varying salinity requires repair strategies tailored to each stretch of waterway. A Nelligen jetty faces different forces than one at Catalina or Surf Beach — local knowledge of these conditions means repairs are specified correctly the first time.
We hold Crown Lands licences for foreshore work across Eurobodalla Shire and coordinate with council on DAs for structural modifications. Being based locally means fast response when flood damage hits — critical on a river system that can rise rapidly after South Coast rainfall.
We cover the entire Clyde River estuary and Eurobodalla coast including Batemans Bay, Nelligen, Surf Beach, Malua Bay, Long Beach, Catalina, Sunshine Bay, Lilli Pilli, Mogo, Broulee, Mossy Point and Tomakin.
