Regular underwater pressure washing helps keep dock pilings, ladders, and floating docks clean, safe, and free of heavy marine growth. Marine growth can make ladders extremely slippery and unsafe to use, while excessive growth on pilings can create a hazardous surface for anyone who may fall into the water near the dock.
Heavy oyster growth and other marine buildup on pilings can also damage vessels. Boats tied alongside a piling can come into contact with sharp oyster growth, and vessels on lifts can be damaged by the buildup when they are being lowered into the water.
For most properties, an annual or biannual cleaning cycle is recommended, depending on location, water conditions, and the amount of marine growth. Hull2Prop provides professional commercial diving and underwater pressure washing services to help keep docks, pilings, ladders, floating docks, and surrounding waterfront areas clean and safer year-round.
