Lake Landscaping & Vegetation

Boost your lakefront property’s value and prevent erosion with the addition of landscaping and vegetation! When left untouched, water can erode your shoreline. But by installing vegetation like beach grass, you’ll experience:

Erosion Prevention

Vegetation with extensive root systems, like beach grass, holds soil/sand in place, forming and maintaining healthy shorelines and protecting against erosion from wind and waves.

Storm Protection

Healthy soil/sand established by vegetation acts as a natural barrier against flooding and other storm-related damages.

We not only install beach grass for erosion control, but also a variety of native trees, bushes, and vegetation to help you in your landscaping efforts!

Retaining Walls

Protect your Lake Allegan shoreline against flooding and erosion with a retaining wall that’s made to last.

Erosion Prevention

Natural water movement like boat wakes can slowly erode your shoreline over time. Retaining walls work to provide a strong defense against land erosion!

Storm Protection

Heavy rainfall can cause hazardous flooding, but retaining walls offer a shield against rising water levels. Protect your property from water damage!

At Lakeshore Customs, we’ll first evaluate your property to identify where erosion is occurring and where the soil/material needs to be retained. Then, we’ll design a retaining wall that meets both your property’s needs and your unique preferences.

Patios, Pavers, and Hardscaping

Hardscaping has the potential to bring immense value to your waterfront property. Hardscapes include stone or wood retaining walls for landscaping beds, paved or stone surfaces, and other decorative structures to further enhance your landscaping. We have the expertise and the equipment to handle large decorative stones, lay stone pavers, and build retaining walls out of your chosen material.

Debris Removal

Cleaning up your property by removing unwanted debris such as brush, trees, stumps, undergrowth, old deck debris, or dead material can bring more value to your property. Besides allowing you to enjoy your property in the ways you desire, debris removal can open up your property for new designs to be integrated—or simply to give your property a cleaner look.

Our debris and material removal service involves hand tools and heavy equipment where needed, so you don’t have to do any of the heavy lifting and you can get the results you want in a timely manner.
