ReadyReef provides turnkey shoreline erosion control installations using the original Chesapeake Bay ecology of oysters and marsh grasses.
We will be installing our first geotube in March of 2021, an instant and substantial product that competes with riprap, but has some superior features, such as a a lower cost.

Latest completed Job: oyster bag sill and LS.
Oyster bags have become a popular solution for erosion control in low energy environments.
Like any sill, they allow for sand to be backfilled behind them to cover up undercut embankments behind them. When planted with marsh grass, the whole Living Shoreline roots down the soil, dissapates wave energy, delivers nutrients and natural habitats, and contiues to get better over time.

Combination Project: Geotubes and Flexamat.
Geotubes (on left in picture) are used all over the world as a direct replacement for riprap. It costs less, allows soft access to the shoreline, will accept dredged material, no snakes and meets hurricane strength standards.
Suitable for high energy sites. Can be found at Cancun, Waikiki beach, Normandy Beach, and Atlantic City, NJ.
Flexamat (on right in
Envirolok bags save tree and support collapsing driveway.
Living shoreline in medium energy environment. Marsh grass dissapates wave energy as it breaks upslope. Wave retreats, but not dragging the marsh peat with it.
