Waterfront properties on Navidad River sit on sandy clay and alluvial sediment banks vulnerable to seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases. Retaining walls convert an eroding slope into a stable bank face, protecting property and adding usable waterfront space.
Shore Protect Team selects materials based on conditions at each Navidad River site. The sandy clay and alluvial sediment determines foundation design, while seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases dictates structural requirements. Wood is the budget option; stone provides natural aesthetics; concrete block handles the heaviest loads.
We serve waterfront properties along the full Navidad River shoreline — near Ganado, Edna, Lake Texana. Contact us for a free consultation and on-site assessment.

labor and materials
Treated timber retaining walls on Navidad River for low-to-moderate bank heights where sandy clay and alluvial sediment allows driven post construction. Southern yellow pine with copper azole treatment withstands the river's freshwater for 20+ years.

labor and materials
Stone retaining walls along Navidad River from regional limestone, granite or sandstone. Dry-stacked or mortar-set, stone walls provide mass-gravity retention while complementing the natural shoreline near Ganado, Edna, Lake Texana.

labor and materials
Wire cage gabion walls for Navidad River shoreline stabilization on sandy clay and alluvial sediment grades where ground movement from seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases would crack conventional concrete. Rock-filled baskets flex, drain and revegetate naturally.

labor and materials
Concrete masonry retaining walls on Navidad River with reinforced cores and positive drainage behind the wall face. CMU construction handles the freshwater environment and provides maximum rigidity on stable sandy clay and alluvial sediment foundations.

labor and materials
Rapid-deploy concrete bag walls along Navidad River for emergency and planned bank stabilization. Fabric-formed bags on sandy clay and alluvial sediment slopes cure into a monolithic armored surface against seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases.

labor and materials
Retaining wall rehabilitation on Navidad River: structural evaluation, selective demolition, tieback replacement, drainage restoration, and cap repair. Every project near Ganado, Edna, Lake Texana includes root-cause analysis.


Common causes on Navidad River include inadequate drainage behind the wall, insufficient foundation depth in sandy clay and alluvial sediment, underestimated soil loads, and toe scour from seasonal flooding, low to moderate current, Lake Texana releases. Proper engineering prevents all of these.
Starting prices on Navidad River range from $70/ft for repair, $120 for concrete bag, $150 for wood and stone, $180 for concrete block, and $200 for gabion. Final cost depends on wall height, soil conditions, drainage and access.
The river's sandy clay and alluvial sediment determines foundation depth, tieback requirements, and drainage configuration. Softer soils need deeper embedment and more robust drainage to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup.
Localized timber rot, displaced stones, and minor cracks can usually be repaired. If the wall is leaning, the foundation is undermined, or drainage has failed along most of the run, replacement is typically more cost-effective.
Yes. Shore Protect Team handles all required coordination for retaining wall projects on Navidad River, from site assessment through construction completion. We serve properties near Ganado, Edna, Lake Texana.
