Living Shoreline Design and Install

Living Restorations presents the groundbreaking Living Shoreline Design and Install service, a perfect fusion of ecological restoration expertise and sustainable design. Our approach involves creating dynamic, resilient shorelines that not only prevent erosion but also enhance the rich biodiversity of the shoreline environment.

Why Choose Living Shorelines?

Traditional shoreline stabilization methods often involve hard structures like seawalls and bulkheads, which can exacerbate erosion and disrupt local ecosystems. In contrast, living shorelines use natural materials such as plants, sand, and rock to create more holistic solutions that stabilize the shoreline while providing habitat for aquatic life.

Our Comprehensive Process

  • Site Assessment: Our process begins with a detailed site assessment to understand the unique characteristics of your shoreline, including wave dynamics, existing vegetation, and soil integrity.
  • Custom Design: Based on the site evaluation, we design a tailored solution employing native plant species, coir logs, and other natural elements to achieve the optimal mix of function and form.
  • Permitting and Compliance: We handle all necessary permits and ensure compliance with local, state, and federal regulations, liberating you from complex bureaucratic hurdles.
  • Professional Installation: Our experienced team executes the design with precision, ensuring each component works collectively to enhance shoreline stability and ecosystem health.
  • Ongoing Maintenance: Following installation, we offer ongoing maintenance plans to ensure the longevity and evolution of your living shoreline.

Benefits of a Living Shoreline

Living shorelines offer significant environmental, economic, and aesthetic benefits:

  • Environmentally Friendly: Facilitates habitat preservation and restoration, supporting diverse marine and terrestrial life.
  • Cost-Effective: Over time, living shorelines require less maintenance than traditional hard structures, saving you money in the long run.
  • Enhanced Beauty: Natural aesthetics blend seamlessly with their surroundings, offering breathtaking views and increased real estate value.
