Revetments & Seawalls

What is an Armor Stone or Rock Revetment?

​

An Armor Stone Revetment or Rock Revetment works by taking the impact of the wave energy and absorbing it, thereby protecting your shoreline and minimizing the effects of coastal erosion. Here at Demex, we use locally sourced armor limestone rock from Sandusky, Ohio. 

​

Our revetments can be installed either by barge or by land, depending on your property. Our fleet of barges can be seen setting these revetments up and down the shores of Lake Erie. With lake levels on the rise for the last few years, revetments are a great way to ensure that our natural beaches will form again and be enjoyed for generations to come.

From day one, the Demex vision has been to lead the industry in Safety Standards and Environmental responsibility.  With years of experience in Marine Construction, we have homed in on exactly how to do it; from our rigorous safety training our crews complete, to the "human aspect" core of our management philosophy.  With both a well-maintained fleet and decades of technical knowledge, Demex always strives to complete every project without incident. Protecting both our area's greatest natural resource, Lake Erie, and the shores that surround her.
