Pricing for bulkhead and truck loads of fill in Bay St Louis?

Anyone know what the price per linear foot is for a bulkhead in the Bay St Louis area? Also what’s the cost for a truck load of fill material?
On a canal, not the bay if it makes a difference. Not sure on water depth.

If you are planning to fill in the ocean, you are gonna need to mitigate a hell of a lot of wetlands!

Nah it’s just a lot that gets soggy so I wanna build it up and put up a bulkhead to stop further erosion

Just got mine done. Vinyl sheet piles and small dock. You’re looking about 200-300/LF. Some crews might have a minimum. You’ll also have to incorporate if they’ll be working from the land or water. This will drive the price up a bit if everything is from the water.
Fill dirt dropped on site, cheap red clay, is 175 per load. This is not contracted through the bulkhead guys, they’ll mark it up. I have machines so filled & spread it myself.
Also be aware that if they do all the work from the shore, they fear up the hell out of your lawn and the pricing does not include resodding or backfill. Make sure you pull a permit and have it closed out.

What was the total exposed height? Most residential bulkheads are 45” in total height or less.
$200-300 per LF is a very high cost per linear foot.

20’, 8’ pilings, 12’ sheet piles. Total exposed height is roughly 2’ to 4’ depending on tide. You won’t find anyone doing it cheaper then 200/lf in pass Christian and if you do, I’d watch the material drop and make sure they know are using the correct materials and know what they are doing.

I had 750’ bulkhead & 2 boat ramps put
In in Shoreline park. 8” pilings 15’ long
Driven down 10ft for my 5ft bulkhead.
Whalers are 4x6 in 2 horizontal runs. 3/8” thick vinyl interlocking sheet piling.
Each piling is 5ft centers and is reinforced by 8” x 10ft deadmen (one per piling) installed 10ft back w/st.stl. 1/2” rods. Topped off w/2x12 lumber.
I paid $180. Per ft.

I’m pleased with the man and his work.

I used All Pro Marine to do my bulkhead and dock in BSL. I could not be happier with the work that was done. Mine was 55' at $230.00 a foot for vinyl and dock was $175.00 a foot. It came out great and they used screws on the dock instead of nails.

He’s backfilling the space behind the bulkhead, not the entire canal you dimwit
