At Diamond Waterfronts, we don’t just build structures; we create gateways to the water. Serving residential, commercial, and municipal clients, we combine decades of engineering expertise with a deep understanding of the unique environmental demands of the region. From the initial sketch to the final piling, our mission is to enhance the beauty, safety, and longevity of your shoreline.
Transforming your vision into a stunning reality requires more than just construction—it requires a unified strategy. At Diamond Waterfronts, our integrated design/build approach eliminates the stress of managing multiple contractors. Whether you are envisioning a private residential retreat or a large-scale commercial marina along the Lake Erieshoreline, our team manages every detail. We provide a seamless, turnkey experience that ensures your project is structurally sound, aesthetically striking, and built to last.
Shoreline erosion is a constant challenge for property owners, but our custom-engineered seawalls offer a permanent defense. We specialize in heavy-duty solutions tailored to your specific soil and wave conditions. Our options include:
Rip Rap: Utilizing geotextile fabrics and precision-placed limestone to naturalize and protect the Lake Erie coast.
Vinyl Sheet Piling: A modern, corrosion-resistant choice that offers a sleek profile and exceptional longevity.
Steel Sheet Piling: The gold standard for structural strength, designed to withstand the most intense environmental pressures. From navigating the complexities of permitting to the final cap installation, we provide the heavy equipment and expertise needed to secure your land.
Steel Sheet Piling: Strong and visually appealing, built to resist environmental conditions.
Both sheet piling options are engineered for water level changes, wave action, and structural needs, with various cap options and lumber tie walls available in select locations. Rely on our experience, expertise, and equipment for durable seawall solutions.
Your dock is the centerpiece of your waterfront lifestyle. Diamond Waterfronts creates custom docking solutions that prioritize both function and form. Using our proprietary fleet of barges and pile drivers, we install high-quality, durable docks capable of handling the fluctuating water levels and ice flows often found across Lake Erie. Whether you need a simple residential pier or a complex commercial docking system, our craftsmanship ensures your boat has a safe, beautiful place to call home.
Protect your vessel from the elements with a professional boat lift installation. We offer a versatile range of systems with capacities from 1,000 to 40,000 pounds, ensuring we can accommodate everything from jet skis to luxury cruisers. Our team handles site evaluations and professional permitting to determine if a hydraulic, cable, piling, or boathouse lift is best for your specific Lake Erie location. With Diamond Waterfronts, you gain the peace of mind that comes with a perfectly calibrated lift.
Maintenance should never get in the way of your time on the water. Our custom canopy solutions act as a shield, protecting your boat’s upholstery and finish from harsh UV rays and weather. At Diamond Waterfronts, we take pride in providing precision craftsmanship that minimizes cleaning time and maximizes your investment’s resale value. We know every minute spent on Lake Erie is precious; let us help you spend more of it cruising and less of it scrubbing.
When a project is inaccessible by land, our versatile fleet of work barges moves in. Diamond Waterfronts provides comprehensive water-based support, including material transportation, heavy hauling, recovery, and marine crane services. Our knowledgeable crew ensures that even the most difficult logistical challenges are met with efficiency, keeping your maritime project on schedule and within budget, no matter where it sits along the Lake Erie horizon.
We believe the water should be enjoyed by everyone. Diamond Waterfronts specializes in the design and installation of state-of-the-art, ADA-compliant kayak launches and fishing docks. These systems are engineered for stability and ease of use, providing individuals of all abilities a safe way to transition from the shore to the waves. By installing these accessible gateways, we help communities better connect with the natural beauty of the Lake Erie region.
Diamond Waterfronts is a trusted partner for public sector projects, known for our reliability and adherence to strict safety standards. We work closely with Parks and Recreation departments across Ohio and Western Pennsylvania to develop public-facing infrastructure. From sprawling boardwalks and seawalls to municipal marinas and public access points along Lake Erie, we have the experience and bonding capacity to execute large-scale government contracts with total transparency.
Navigating steep bluffs and rugged terrain shouldn’t be a barrier to your beach. We design and install custom all-terrain staircases using premium steel, aluminum, or treated wood. Whether your property requires a monumental 100-step system to reach the Lake Erie shoreline or a simple, elegant transition to your dock, Diamond Waterfronts builds safe, slip-resistant, and durable stairs that blend beautifully with your natural landscape.
