Shore Protect Team provides shoreline erosion control, dock and pier construction, retaining wall installation, and bank stabilization for waterfront properties on Lake Palestine in Anderson, Cherokee, Henderson, and Smith counties in East Texas near Tyler. Lake Palestine is a the reservoir authority reservoir on the Neches River that provides water supply for the Tyler area and serves as a major recreational lake for the East Texas region. The lake's large surface area, piney woods setting, and active recreational boating make it one of the premier waterfront residential destinations in East Texas.
Lake Palestine's shoreline soils include a mix of East Texas red clay, sandy loam, and alluvial deposits from the Neches River basin - these soils are prone to the shrink-swell erosion typical of clay-heavy East Texas lake banks. Wave erosion from recreational boat traffic and wind-driven conditions on Lake Palestine's large open fetches compounds the soil movement erosion, requiring retaining walls on developed waterfront properties that experience combined wave and soil stability issues. Shore Protect Team evaluates the specific soil type and wave exposure at each Lake Palestine erosion site before recommending retaining wall type and embedment depth.
On Lake Palestine, Shore Protect Team builds fixed and floating dock systems, covered boat houses, and bank stabilization for properties in Anderson, Cherokee, Henderson, and Smith counties near Tyler. Pressure-treated lumber, composite decking, and galvanized framing on driven piling are matched to the lake's mix of red clay, sandy loam, and Neches River alluvial deposits along its shoreline. Wave exposure varies significantly across the lake's large surface, so each dock is sized for the property's specific orientation and water depth.
