A lakefront property comes with many responsibilities, and one of the biggest ones is to you and your family in preserving the financial investment you’ve made in purchasing lakefront realty. Too often, lakefront property owners come to us once significant, irreversible shoreline erosion has occurred, impacting the overall value of their property.
As leaders in shoreline erosion management, we encourage you to reach out to us to better understand how you can protect your waterfront property against erosion and maintain your property’s overall value while enhancing the aesthetics of your shoreline.
At Martin Docks, we take pride in providing comprehensive solutions for your shoreline, which, in addition to erosion control (rip rap), also include the construction, replacement, and/or modification of shoreline steps.
To better understand our complete shoreline management offerings and how you can protect your investment, give us a call at (770) 536-0189.
Rip Rap consists of strategically placed stones of varying size along a shoreline to prevent soil erosion caused by lake currents, wave action and weather over time. The primary objective of Rip Rap is to dissipate wave energy, minimizing the direct impact on the shoreline and preserving its integrity and longevity.
Selecting the appropriate Rip Rap material is crucial for a successful installation. Factors such as stone size, stone composition, weight, and durability play a pivotal role. Our experts will access your property and help select the proper Rip Rap material to maintain the natural beauty of your shoreline for years to come.
Before beginning any Rip Rap project, a thorough site assessment is conducted. This includes evaluating soil composition, water depth, current erosion patterns and tree removal assessments. Proper preparation ensures a seamless rock installation and tree removal process to ensure long-term stability.
