When the only way in is by water or crane, our access team makes engineered retaining walls possible.
Barge & Crane Access Projects
t is a job where materials, equipment, or crews must reach the site by water because there is no safe road access. We use barges to deliver everything needed to build an engineered wall.
Crane access is needed when a steep slope, tight lot, or obstacles make it unsafe to haul blocks and stone with standard equipment. A crane lets us set materials precisely without damaging the property.
Yes. We bring equipment and materials by barge, cut safe bench access, and build the wall to engineered design even on shoreline lots with zero road access.
Big block systems, SRW block, boulders, gravel, base stone, geogrid, drain pipe, equipment, and crew supplies. If it is needed for the wall, we can barge it in.
Mostly, but not always. We also use barges for any site that is landlocked, has no drivable access, or needs heavy materials moved across water.
We stage materials in controlled zones, use certified rigging, maintain stable shore tie offs, and follow a step by step lift plan so equipment and loads stay secure.
It can, but it often saves money versus risky access roads or manual handling. Crane time is planned efficiently so it is used only where it adds value and safety.
Yes. Big block walls are made for crane placement, which allows fast, clean construction on steep terrain and high walls.
Every load must be planned, staged, and lifted in sequence. There is less room for error, so engineering, logistics, and experienced operators matter more than ever.
We own the barge and run the crews in house, and we build engineered walls on steep mountain and lake sites every week. That combo keeps access safe, fast, and code compliant.
