SHORELINE PROTECTION

Our shoreline protection systems are engineered to stop erosion, absorb wave energy, and protect your lakefront for decades. We reshape and contour the bank, install premium 8-ounce professional-grade filter fabric, and armor the shoreline with Class 2 boulders weighing 500–1000 lbs. These stones are specifically selected and broken to size at the quarry to lock together and form a rugged, interlocking barrier. Large wake boats, jet skis, and fast-moving water crash into the armor rock and instantly lose their destructive force, preventing bank collapse and long-term soil loss. This method is far superior to traditional landscaping rock because the mass, size, and interlocking structure of Class 2 boulders deliver true shoreline defense. Whether your bank is steep, soft, eroded, or under heavy boat traffic, our engineered shoreline protection systems restore stability and preserve your property for generations.

LAKE ACCESSIBLE SEA WALLS

Some sea walls can only be built from the water, and our barge gives you access to structural shoreline solutions that simply can’t be built from land. TVA regulations now require new lakefront stabilization to be constructed from natural materials—boulders, riprap, gabion baskets, or organic bag systems—instead of concrete or metal wall systems. The good news: existing concrete sea walls can still be repaired, reinforced, and extended, and we specialize in preserving these legacy structures for 100+ years. Using divers, hydraulic equipment, and barge-mounted machinery, we repair undermined footers, replace failed sections, add reinforcement, and rebuild lost shoreline. Whether your wall is collapsing, leaning, cracked, or overtopped by wave action, we restore its structural integrity without disturbing your property from land. Our barge-access construction ensures efficient, safe, and precise work—even on sites that are impossible to reach from the road.

LAKE ACCESSIBLE TREES

Many trees along the shoreline cannot be safely felled from land without destroying landscaping, damaging expensive hardscapes, or putting your home at risk. Our lake-access tree service eliminates all of these dangers. Working directly from the water, our certified “Tree Surgeons” remove hazardous, dead, or overgrown trees with zero damage to your property. With over 20 years of professional experience and a $2 million insurance policy, we provide complete peace of mind. We section-cut trees over the water, lower limbs with controlled rigging, and handle the entire operation from our barge—keeping your yard, retaining walls, and outdoor living spaces untouched. When a tree can only fall toward the water, when banks are too steep for equipment, or when tight access makes land removal impossible, we bring the safest and most cost-effective solution directly to your shoreline.

LAKE TRANSPORTATION

Some lakefront properties simply have no practical land access for delivery or installation—and that’s where our barge transportation service becomes invaluable. We’ve transported and delivered fully assembled structures, including trampolines, gazebos, safes, playhouses, entertainment systems, and even compact excavation equipment and man-lifts. For homeowners and builders on Lake Blue Ridge, our barge is often the only way to move large, heavy, or delicate items safely to the shoreline without disturbing driveways, steep slopes, or finished landscapes. We coordinate every detail: loading at the marina, water transport, shoreline landing, and precision placement using crane equipment or skid-steers from the deck of the barge. Whether you’re installing a new dock feature, moving construction materials, or delivering bulky equipment, our barge provides a reliable and damage-free solution for lake-only access sites.
