The project

Managing water above the slope.

Erosion was threatening a home perched above Lake Livingston on a 55-foot bluff. Shaw’s Construction took on the Huntsville project to address the way water moved across the property and toward the slope.

The team designed and installed a series of concrete channels to redirect runoff and help limit further soil loss. The photos show the initial erosion damage and the installed channel system.
