Shoreline protection is the process of enhancing the structural integrity of your waterfront to protect against erosion and other forms of damage caused by fluctuating water levels, high winds, boat traffic and winter ice. On large bodies of water such as Georgian Bay, this work typically includes the use of large boulders carefully placed along the waters edge to help stabilize the shoreline during wave uprush. As water levels continue to rise, shoreline protection remains the key to maintaining and preserving your waterfront real estate.
