Pilings under constant attack
Marine growth and organisms work on pilings year-round, especially below the waterline.
Pile Saver Installation
Pile Saver Installation
Protection starts at the piling. Pile Saver is a piling-protection system Maritime Coastal Construction is closely connected to, installed on new construction and as a retrofit on existing pilings.
What this solves
Problems we help with
Expensive, repeated piling work
Replacing pilings again and again is costly; protecting them is the more economical long game.
New pilings with no protection
A new dock is the ideal moment to protect pilings from day one.

Site and coastal considerations
New construction and retrofit
Pile Saver can be installed as part of new work or added to pilings that are already in place.
Supported piling types
The system is designed to fit common piling forms. We confirm fit for your specific pilings.
Careful about claims
An independent North Carolina State University study examined the system. We describe that research carefully rather than overstating it — see the Pile Saver page.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Pile Saver?
Pile Saver is a piling-protection system that Maritime Coastal Construction is closely connected to. It is installed on pilings to help protect them, and it can be fitted to common piling types.
Can Pile Saver be installed on an existing dock?
Yes. Pile Saver can be installed as a retrofit on existing pilings, not only on new construction. It is often added during a repair while access is already open.
Is there research behind it?
An independent study at North Carolina State University examined the system. We summarize that research carefully on the Pile Saver page and link to the source rather than overstating the findings.
