Rip Rap Service Details
What is Rip Rap?
Rip Rap, often referred to as rock armor or rubble, is a highly effective solution used to protect shoreline structures, riverbanks, and landscapes from erosion. Composed of heavy stones or boulders, Rip Rap is strategically placed along banks or slopes to absorb wave energy and limit soil loss.
Benefits of Rip Rap
- Erosion Control: Rip Rap serves as an excellent erosion control method. By absorbing and deflecting the impact of water, it effectively prevents soil from washing away.
- Durability: This method provides long-lasting stability, capable of withstanding harsh weather conditions and constant water flow.
- Natural Appearance: When applied thoughtfully, Rip Rap maintains the natural beauty of the landscape, blending seamlessly with the surroundings.
- Low Maintenance: Once installed, Rip Rap requires minimal upkeep, making it a cost-effective, long-term solution for property protection.

Here's some of what they had to say
We had several lake homes with ice push-up on the shore this spring, up to several feet tall in places. These pleasant fellows came out and there is now perfect rock riprap and yard restoration. Also after their cleanup, you can’t even tell they were there except for the restored areas.
Outstanding Help from Ben at Elevate Landscaping! I had about 12 inches of snow to deal with, and the plow left a heavy, wet pile at the end of my driveway. While I was struggling to clear it, Ben happened to be driving by and saw me. Without hesitation, he stepped in and not only cleared the end of my driveway but also took care of the rest of it—plus my neighbor’s driveway! What would have taken me hours was done in just minutes. This was my first time meeting Ben, and I was incredibly impressed by his kindness and efficiency. If this is the level of service Elevate Landscaping provides, I highly recommend them! Brian
