WHY COASTAL MARINE CONSTRUCTION, LLC
Coastal Marine self-performs the complete marine scope: pile driving, diving and underwater welding, demolition, concrete, rebar, gunite, structural steel, and blasting and painting. GCs get one subcontractor and one point of accountability instead of coordinating three or four separate specialty subs, with design-build management capability included.
Coastal Marine maintains a consistent track record of staying on schedule and on budget, even on complex, tide-dependent work. Safety protocols conform to OSHA standards company-wide, and execution stays environmentally aware, using tools like silt curtains when sustainability matters to a project.
Coastal Marine has been in business 13 years, but the core leadership team has worked together since 1990. Project managers and engineers bring decades of individual marine experience, adding up to 100+ years combined, the depth needed to size up a problem and price it accurately.
Coastal Marine works directly with owners and engineers to solve problems collaboratively as they come up, rather than escalating issues or hiding behind scope exclusions. That low-maintenance approach limits GC exposure. Coastal Marine also negotiates on price rather than holding a rigid number.
Coastal Marine’s union-affiliated workforce trains continuously, including on-site sessions and guest lecturers, reducing labor and safety risk for GCs. A partnership with a university engineering program builds a pipeline of specialized talent, including visa sponsorship and mentorship. Coastal Marine is also a certified WBE and DBE.
