Dock Piling Repair in Houma, Louisiana
Deep South Marine Restoration serves waterfront property owners throughout Houma, Terrebonne Parish, and the Lafourche corridor. The Terrebonne delta's aggressive marine environment demands the strongest piling protection available.
Houma Dock & Piling Restoration
Bayou Terrebonne runs through the heart of Houma, connecting the city to one of the most ecologically complex — and biologically aggressive — waterway systems in Louisiana. Where Bayou Terrebonne meets Terrebonne Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, the overlap of freshwater, brackish, and saltwater environments creates near-perfect conditions for Teredo shipworms and Limnoria crustaceans. These organisms are among the leading causes of dock piling failure across Terrebonne and Lafourche Parishes.
Deep South Marine Restoration brings its patent-pending piling wrap and concrete encapsulation system to Houma-area waterfront properties. Our system physically barriers out marine borers, seals against water intrusion, and reinforces structural integrity — all without the cost, permits, or disruption of full piling replacement.
Houma's delta geography also makes properties vulnerable to storm surge and tidal flooding. Our materials are rated for hurricane-force conditions and saltwater immersion, making them ideal for the demanding Terrebonne environment.

Houma sits at the edge of the Terrebonne delta where fresh, brackish, and saltwater environments overlap — one of the most biologically active waterway systems on the Gulf Coast. Teredo shipworm activity in these waters is particularly aggressive, and unprotected wood pilings in the Terrebonne basin commonly show severe internal damage within 3–7 years.
Yes — we regularly service Terrebonne and Lafourche Parish properties. Houma is approximately 60 miles from our Slidell headquarters. We schedule inspections throughout South Louisiana and can typically reach Houma within the same week. Call 985-200-2225.
Terrebonne Parish waterfront properties most commonly need piling wraps and concrete encapsulation due to aggressive marine borer activity. Cross brace protection and bulkhead reinforcement are also in high demand, given the combination of tidal flooding, storm surge exposure, and biological deterioration in this delta environment.
In most cases, yes — if the piling core retains load-bearing capacity. Our free inspection determines the structural status of each piling. Pilings that still have sufficient core integrity can be wrapped and encapsulated to prevent further degradation, effectively extending their service life by decades at a fraction of replacement cost.
