Marine Construction – And Other Services
At Freedom Environmental, we bring 30+ years of experience of coastal habitat restoration work. For example, need seawall repairs? Instead of replacing everything, you might be a candidate for minor repairs plus rip-rap reinforcement. Rip-rap might be a better approach because it is generally less expensive than a total replacement, but more importantly it can improve your local water quality by attenuating wave activity. It also provides habitat for fish, crustaceans, and other wildlife.
We have experience with planting native plants along shorelines (mangroves, spartina grass, etc.) as well as submerged plants in both fresh and salt water. Sometimes native shoreline plants are simply crowded out by invasive trees, shrubs and other plants. Freedom Environmental can identify and remove invasive plants, then determine if supplemental planting is necessary.
If ongoing erosion is your problem, wave attenuation devices might be the solution. Freedom Environmental can help determine not only if this is a viable solution for you, including custom designing a functional habitat system.
