Piling installation on Navidad River starts with understanding what the pilings must do: support a dock, anchor a bulkhead, carry a bridge, or elevate a boardwalk. Each application has different load requirements, and the river's sandy clay and alluvial sediment determines how deep the pilings go.
Shore Protect Team installs wood and steel pilings along Navidad River using vibratory hammers, impact hammers, and jetting equipment — selecting the driving method based on sandy clay and alluvial sediment conditions. Every piling is driven to refusal or engineered tip elevation, verified with blow count records.

labor and materials
Treated wood pilings along Navidad River driven to refusal or engineered tip elevation in sandy clay and alluvial sediment. Shore Protect Team sizes and spaces pilings based on the structure they will support — pier, dock, bridge, bulkhead, or boardwalk — and the wave and current forces from seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases.
labor and materials
Metal piling installation on Navidad River: galvanized steel, hot-dip coated, or epoxy-protected pipe and H-piles for structures requiring heavy load capacity. Driven into the river's sandy clay and alluvial sediment to engineered depth near Ganado, Edna, Lake Texana.
Properly treated wood pilings in Navidad River's freshwater environment typically last 20-30 years. CCA treatment provides the longest life in submerged applications. Creosote is another long-life option. Lifespan depends on treatment type, water conditions, and exposure to seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases.
Wood pilings on Navidad River start at $150 each for labor and materials. Steel pilings start at $200. Final cost depends on piling diameter, length, treatment, sandy clay and alluvial sediment driving conditions, water depth, and equipment access.
Shore Protect Team uses vibratory hammers, impact hammers, and water-jetting equipment depending on the sandy clay and alluvial sediment substrate. Barge-mounted equipment is used for deep-water installation; shore-based equipment handles shallow-water and upland piling work.
In some cases, yes. Sister pilings, concrete jackets, and steel sleeve wraps can extend the life of pilings that still have structural capacity. If the piling is broken, severely rotted below the waterline, or has lost bearing in sandy clay and alluvial sediment, replacement is necessary.
