Dixon Shoreline and Landscaping Brings Over 30 Years of Expertise in Shoreline Protection and Restoration to Wisconsin's Beautiful Homes
BUILDING BIG WALLS ON A SHORELINE
Dealing with regulations, risks and a steep slope along a water way.
By Tom Hatlen
In late July 2014 contractor Pat Dixon responded to a call to evaluate a series of timber retaining walls. Pat arrived to find a structure of 10 walls 50’ high and 120’ wide built a 1.1:1 slope above the Lake Wisconsin shoreline. A built-in timber staircase/walkway zigzagged down to the lake with switchbacks like a mountain road.

"Recommendations were made to repair our eroded shoreline and prevent further heaving from the ice. Plans were drafted and the proper DNR permit was secured by the Company to complete the job in accordance with shoreline regulations. Native rock and aquatic plants were used and the shoreline looks natural and well protected. Two seasons have passed now and the restoration is doing just what was intended. Highly recommend this company."
