WHAT WE DO
Our Approach
Unprecedented storms, high water levels and severe wave action across the Great Lakes region in recent years, have resulted in critical erosion along the surrounding shorelines of Lake Ontario and Lake Erie.
We provide comprehensive solutions to erosion concerns with structural shoreline stabilization installations. Our shoreline protection structures are designed to:
- Resist geotechnical factors such as hydrostatic pressure and embankment soil loads.
- Endure the hydraulic forces from waves and currents, including extreme events such as floods, storms, and impacts.
- Allow drainage without the loss of soils behind the structure, utilizing tough non-woven geo-textile fabric technology.
- Inhibit scour and undermining, by embedding (Toe) wall below water levelTie in effectively with adjacent structures.
- Employ durable, non-hazardous materials, Natural quarried stone, angular or smooth.
- Utilize reasonable construction methods regarding site access, equipment staging, crew safety, and environmental practices.
- Naturalization and bank stabilization landscaping and remediation.
- Accommodate additional features such as terraced walls, ramps, moorage facilities, pier abutments, and outfalls.
- Include optional waterside amenities, such as patios, decks, stairs.
- Associated site specific services, such as dredging and beach screening.

SHORELINE LIFESTYLE
Turn Your Shoreline Into An Outdoor Living Space
Armourstone retaining walls are not only used as erosion control along shorelines, but also as a terracing structure which allows ground levels of different elevations to exist adjacent to one another. Include optional waterside amenities, such as patios, decks, stairs.
