Local insight: Granite outcrop shoreline terrain requires pneumatic drilling for retaining walls and custom lakeside rock steps.
Getting from house to waterfront across granite ledges calls for custom rock steps, and these are a Granite Shoals specialty. We cut and set stone stairways that navigate the outcrops down to docks and shoreline, drilled and pinned into the granite so they stay solid on the incline, with landings and drainage that keep them safe and dry. Working with the natural rock rather than against it produces steps that belong to the landscape.
The granite terrain drains fast where soil exists and holds none where it doesn't, so irrigation is efficient and targeted and native plantings do much of the work. Waterfront lots need retaining walls anchored into the rock and drainage that protects both the bank and Lake LBJ from erosion and silt, and we build to that standard.
For the lake setting, we add stone patios, fire features, and lighting where wanted, all anchored to the rock. About forty-seven miles from our shop, Granite Shoals is within our service area for rock-drilled walls, custom lakeside steps, efficient irrigation, and backflow testing.
