Protect the land at the water’s edge
Every shoreline needs
the right solution.
Soil loss, steep banks, and washouts can put your landscape at risk. We focus on restoring vulnerable areas and helping stabilize the shoreline.
Geotube systems
Geotextile containment systems installed along vulnerable banks to help retain soil and reinforce the shoreline.
Washout & erosion repair
Address soil displacement, washouts, and damaged areas around the lakebank before the erosion progresses.
From erosion to a restored shoreline
How we install your geotube system
See how we rebuild an eroded lakebank, from anchoring the geotube and filling it with sand to grading the yard and installing new sod.
Step 01
Assess and prepare the shoreline
We inspect the eroded bank and prepare the shoreline for the geotube system. This creates the starting point for rebuilding the lost shoreline and restoring the lawn.
Step 02
Position and anchor the geotube
We place the geotube along the shoreline and secure it with 18-inch stakes. A second row of stakes, approximately 2 feet behind the first, connects to the tube with rope tie-backs for additional anchoring.
Step 03
Pump in sand and water
We pump a mixture of sand and water into the geotube. The fabric allows water to escape while retaining the sand, gradually filling the tube to form support along the bank.
Step 04
Fill along the shoreline
We continue filling the geotube along the bank, keeping the system positioned and anchored as it takes shape.
Step 05
Allow the water to drain
As water drains through the fabric, the sand remains contained inside the geotube. The filled system provides the foundation for rebuilding the shoreline profile.
Step 06
Add sand and grade the bank
We place additional sand over and behind the geotube, then grade the area to match the existing backyard. The goal is a smooth transition from the lawn to the restored shoreline.
Step 07
Install and pin new sod
We cover the graded area with new sod and secure it with 8-inch ground pins. These hold the sod in place while the grass takes root.
Step 08
Finish and water the grass
The finished shoreline blends back into the yard with a fresh grass surface. Water the new sod to help it establish. The geotube system requires no maintenance—just water the grass.
Every job backed by our 10-year warranty
We warranty every job for 10 years. The geotube system requires no maintenance—just water the grass.

Project 1
Project 2
Follow this shoreline restoration from the eroded bank to the finished grass.
Project 3 / From erosion to a restored lakebank
Follow the shoreline’s transformation: exposed and eroded soil, geotextile installation, rebuilding the bank, and a fresh grass finish.
Project 4 / Rip Rap Cement Bag Retaining Wall
From an eroded lakebank to a reinforced cement bag retaining wall and restored grass. Follow the work in order below.
The process, step by step
- Prepare the shoreline
Inspect the erosion and prepare the affected lakebank for the retaining wall.
- Build and reinforce the wall
Place the cement bags along the bank. Every cement bag receives rebar reinforcement.
- Anchor the wall
Use ropes as anchors to hold the wall tight.
- Install retaining fabric
Place fabric behind the wall to hold the sand in place and reduce sand loss through the wall.
- Backfill and restore
Backfill behind the fabric with sand, shape the bank, and finish with grass.
01 / Before restoration
Erosion has washed away soil beside the walkway, leaving a steep, exposed bank.
02 / Building the cement bag wall
Cement bags are placed along the shoreline to form the wall. Every cement bag receives rebar reinforcement.
03 / Rope anchors
The ropes act as anchors, holding the wall tight while the shoreline is rebuilt behind it.
04 / Wall alignment along the bank
The wall follows the curve of the shoreline, creating an edge for the restored bank.
05 / Fabric behind the wall
Fabric is installed behind the wall to hold the sand in place and help prevent it from washing through the bags.
06 / Fabric and anchor detail
The fabric retains the backfill while the rope anchors hold the wall tight.
07 / Backfilling with sand
Sand is placed behind the fabric-lined wall to rebuild the bank before the grass finish.
08 / Finished retaining wall
The rebuilt bank is finished with grass above the cement bag retaining wall.
09 / Completed shoreline
A final view of the completed wall and restored grass along the water’s edge.
