Dock Piling Repair in Metairie, Louisiana
Deep South Marine Restoration serves the Lake Pontchartrain South Shore and Jefferson Parish waterfront. Our patent-pending piling protection stops wood-boring damage and saves Metairie property owners thousands over full replacement.
Metairie Dock & Piling Restoration
The Lake Pontchartrain South Shore between Metairie and Kenner stretches along one of the most developed waterfront corridors in Southeast Louisiana. Private docks, marinas, and boat launches along this shoreline are exposed to the full biological and environmental pressures of Lake Pontchartrain — including active populations of Teredo shipworms and Limnoria borers in the brackish water column.
Deep South Marine Restoration services Metairie and Jefferson Parish waterfront properties with the same expertise we bring to our home base in Slidell. Our patent-pending piling wrap and encapsulation system provides a permanent barrier against marine borers, water intrusion, and UV degradation — protecting your dock investment for decades.
For Metairie property owners facing piling damage after storm events or years of exposure, our free on-site inspection is the fastest way to understand exactly what you're dealing with and what it will cost to fix.

Yes — Deep South Marine Restoration services waterfront properties in Metairie and the Jefferson Parish lakefront area, including docks and boat launches along the South Shore of Lake Pontchartrain. We offer free on-site inspections throughout the Metairie and Jefferson Parish waterfront.
The South Shore of Lake Pontchartrain near Metairie is exposed to the full brackish water column of the lake, where Teredo shipworms and Limnoria crustaceans are highly active. Wave action from prevailing southerly winds also accelerates physical wear on dock structures, compounding biological damage.
Metairie is within our regular Greater New Orleans service area. We are typically able to schedule inspections within the same week for Metairie properties. Call or text 985-200-2225 to check current availability.
Often, yes. Storm surge damage affects the above-waterline portions of pilings most visibly, but structural integrity depends on the condition of the piling below the waterline. Our free inspection evaluates both zones and recommends the most cost-effective solution — which in many cases is reinforcement and encapsulation rather than full replacement.
Cost depends on the number of pilings, their diameter and condition, and access to the site. We provide detailed, itemized quotes after a free inspection. Most encapsulation projects run 40–70% less than full piling replacement. Call 985-200-2225 for a free estimate.
