Frequently Asked Questions

Retaining walls: answers to common questions. This is general information, not legal advice. Rules and prices change, so confirm details with your building department and get written quotes. Official county and state resources are listed under Homeowner Resources at the bottom of this page.

Does a retaining wall need a permit?

Often, but it depends on the city and the wall. The City of Cocoa, for example, has a permit type for fences, masonry walls, and retaining walls. Contact your city building department, or Brevard County Building Permits in unincorporated areas, with the wall height and location before work starts.

Will my wall need an engineer?

Taller walls, and walls that hold up a driveway, pool, or building, are more likely to need an engineered design. The building department decides what is required, so ask early, and ask contractors whether their quote includes any engineering.

Does a contractor need a license to build a retaining wall?

Brevard County lists masonry and decorative hardscape among unregulated trades, but structural masonry appears on the list of certified specialties. Which category your wall falls into depends on the design, so confirm with the building department and ask the contractor what licenses they hold.

Is a retaining wall the same as a seawall?

No. A landscape retaining wall holds back soil in a yard. Seawall and other marine work is a separate category: Brevard County lists marine contractors and seawall work among licensed trades. Waterfront owners on the Indian River or Banana River should keep the two jobs separate.

Do I need to call 811 before building a wall?

Yes, if you are digging. Florida's Sunshine 811 program asks for a locate request at least two full business days before you dig, so underground utilities can be marked.
