Coastal Marine Construction drives, tests, and extracts piling for marine and heavy civil projects, using our own fleet of barges and cranes. Our crews are trained to keep production on schedule in tidal and weather-dependent conditions without sacrificing safety.
PLANNED
AROUND THE WATER.
Pile driving is the foundation of most marine infrastructure work, and it’s often the piece of a project with the least room for schedule slippage. Coastal Marine Construction has driven, tested, and extracted thousands of piles, including foundation piling for large-scale projects like the Vineyard Wind operations and maintenance facility. Because we own our equipment fleet rather than renting or subcontracting it, we control our own scheduling and can mobilize quickly once a project is ready to move.
Our process begins with reviewing engineering specifications and site conditions, then sequencing the work around tides, environmental permitting requirements, and any noise or vibration restrictions tied to the site. Pile installation is followed by testing to confirm load capacity, and extraction work follows the same safety and environmental protocols. Throughout the process, our crews work directly with the project engineer to address unexpected subsurface conditions on site rather than pausing work to escalate through a chain of subcontractors.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is marine pile driving?
Marine pile driving is the process of installing vertical support piles into the seabed or waterway bottom to create foundations for piers, wharfs, bridges, and other in-water structures.
What types of piles does Coastal Marine Construction install?
Coastal Marine Construction drives, tests, and extracts a range of pile types used in marine and heavy civil construction, sized and specified based on project engineering requirements.
How does weather and tide affect pile driving schedules?
Tidal windows and weather conditions determine when equipment can safely access the work area, which is why experienced scheduling and owned equipment matter for keeping a pile driving project on track.
What is pile load testing?
Pile load testing confirms that an installed pile can support its designed load before construction continues, reducing the risk of foundation issues later in the project.
Why would a pile need to be extracted?
Piles are extracted for demolition, rehabilitation, or replacement projects where an existing structure needs to be removed or upgraded.
Does Coastal Marine Construction own its pile driving equipment?
Yes. Coastal Marine Construction operates its own fleet of barges, cranes, and marine equipment, which allows us to control scheduling rather than depending on rented equipment or third-party crews.
