Rip Rap

Durable Erosion Control for Your Landscape

Riprap is a proven solution for managing erosion and stabilizing areas affected by water flow and weather. Whether protecting a shoreline, reinforcing a drainage channel, or securing a steep slope, riprap provides both functionality and longevity. (watch our video below)

What Is Riprap?

Riprap refers to a layer of large, angular stones strategically placed on slopes, riverbanks, or other areas prone to erosion. The stones act as a protective barrier, absorbing and deflecting the energy of flowing water or heavy rainfall, preventing soil displacement and maintaining structural integrity.

Benefits of Riprap

  1. Effective Erosion Control: Riprap safeguards landscapes from the destructive effects of water and wind, preventing soil loss and preserving the natural terrain.

  2. Stabilizes Slopes and Banks: It provides critical support for steep slopes, embankments, and shorelines, reducing the risk of landslides or washouts.

  3. Long-Lasting Protection: Built to withstand the test of time, riprap offers a durable solution for even the most challenging environments.

  4. Improves Drainage: While primarily an erosion control feature, riprap also facilitates proper water flow in drainage ditches and channels, reducing water pooling and flooding risks.

  5. Enhances Natural Aesthetics: Riprap can blend seamlessly into your landscape, offering a natural and rustic appearance that complements its surroundings.
