Erosion Control and Shoreline Stabilization Services

1. Shoreline Stabilization Solutions

Our solutions tackle the erosion challenges faced by stormwater systems, residential shorelines, and commercial developments:

Non-structural and bio-engineered methods: Our philosophy is finding a problem and eliminating its origin through proper balance, symmetry, harmony and equilibrium of force instead of fighting against nature or patch work which costs more in the long run.

Hard Engineering: From custom seawalls to RipRap installations for high-impact water bodies like canals and riverbanks.

2. Engineered Erosion Control

We offer tailored solutions for high-risk areas, such as stormwater systems and ditches:

Articulated Concrete Mats: Ideal for securing creek banks, drainage channels, and other erosion-prone areas.

Gabion Baskets: Flexible, durable, and environmentally friendly, gabions work well for both urban developments and natural settings.

Dewatering and Dredging for Waterway Management

Our dewatering and dredging services help maintain water quality and flow in Southwest Florida’s intricate water systems.

Advanced Techniques: Minimizing impact on aquatic ecosystems while effectively managing sediment buildup.

Application Areas: Residential lakes, golf course ponds, commercial water features, and government-managed stormwater facilities.

Additional Erosion Control Methods

  1. Turf Reinforcement Mats: Strengthen embankments and prevent soil loss, perfect for golf courses, canal edges, and residential developments.

 

  1. RipRap Installation: Used to protect lakeshores, riverbanks, and drainage ditches, our RipRap solutions ensure effective erosion management.

 

  1. Eco-Filter Tubes (EFT®): A versatile geo-tube solution for erosion control and shoreline restoration with a wide variety of applications.

 

Applications: Ideal for lakes managed by homeowners associations, golf course ponds, and natural creek banks.
