Restore your lake or retention pond shoreline and embankment with professionally installed Flexamat and other eco-friendly geotextiles.
Lake shoreline erosion due to changes in water levels and wind generated wave action will cause diminished property lines, undermine root systems of trees and damage structures.
Prepping for Geobag system requires re-establishing retention pond embankment erosion with soil or even dredge waste if dredging is required. Geobags are a long-term solution to provide protection at the transition zone where the erosion is occurring.
Geobags may be trenched at the top edge and below the waterline to secure each mat to the slope. Soil then can be swept over the top of the system where it can be seeded or sodded.
The placement of a geotextile can help home owners gain 5 feet or more shoreline that will not erode for years to come. Once the Geobags are installed, they are back filled with topsoil and vegetation. Vegetation can be established over the Geobags by seeding or sodding. Fortify your property from future retention pond shoreline erosion guaranteed.
Geobags are another strategy of restoring lake embankment erosion using hand or mechanical dredging near shorelines filling the bags with lost soil from the retention pond or lake. Sod can be added on top allowing for a seamless extension of property.
