Bay St. Louis Dock & Piling Restoration
The Bay of St. Louis — bounded by Bay St. Louis to the east, Henderson Point to the west, and the Mississippi Sound to the south — is a classic Gulf Coast estuary where warm brackish water and tidal exchange create ideal conditions for wood-boring marine organisms. Teredo shipworms and Limnoria crustaceans are active throughout the bay, and private docks along the Bay St. Louis waterfront face constant biological pressure on untreated wood pilings.
The Jourdan River adds additional waterfront mileage in Hancock County. Its tidal marsh environment and lower salinity make it a transition zone where borer activity, though somewhat less intense than in the open bay, is still sufficient to cause significant piling damage over time.
Because Bay St. Louis is the closest Mississippi city to our Slidell headquarters — just across the state line — we offer some of the fastest response times on the entire Mississippi Gulf Coast. Free inspections, same-week scheduling, and the Gulf Coast's most advanced piling protection system are all available to Bay St. Louis property owners.

Yes — Deep South Marine Restoration services waterfront properties throughout Bay St. Louis and Hancock County, including docks on the Bay of St. Louis, St. Louis Bay, Jourdan River, and the Mississippi Sound. We offer free on-site inspections for Bay St. Louis property owners.
The Bay of St. Louis is a shallow, semi-enclosed estuary with warm, brackish water — ideal conditions for Teredo shipworms and Limnoria borers. The bay's exposure to Gulf weather systems also creates substantial wave action during storm events. The combination of biological attack and physical stress from storms makes Bay St. Louis one of the more demanding environments for dock piling longevity on the Mississippi Coast.
Bay St. Louis is in our primary Mississippi Gulf Coast service area — it's the closest Mississippi city to our Slidell, Louisiana headquarters (approximately 35 miles). We can often schedule same-day or next-day inspections in Hancock County. Call 985-200-2225.
Yes — we service docks throughout the Jourdan River estuary, from the upper tidal reach to the lower Bay of St. Louis. The Jourdan River's marsh environment and tidal character make it particularly susceptible to marine borer activity in its lower sections.
Cost depends on the number of pilings, their condition, and the level of protection required. We provide transparent, itemized quotes after a free on-site inspection. Most projects in the Bay St. Louis area run 40–70% less than full piling replacement. Call 985-200-2225 for a free estimate.
