JAM Contracting services the Georgian Bay Area including waterfront properties in Wasaga Beach, Collingwood and Tiny Beaches for shoreline repair and installation projects. With water levels on Georgian Bay continually fluctuating the importance of shoreline protection and protecting your property is a priority.
Water level changes on Georgian Bay are a natural cycle and can be gradual or rapid. This can cause erosion of soils and damage to the natural shorelines or existing shoreline retaining/break walls.
Shoreline erosion can be caused by several factors including:
Storms, rain, ice, winds, runoff, and loss of trees and other vegetation
Lack of existing shoreline protection
Soil saturation
Wave action: waves pull soil from the shoreline to lower levels
Water undercutting the shoreline
Erosion is not intrinsically harmful in a natural environmental setting, however when it causes waterfront property loss, it is undesirable and needs to be addressed as soon as possible.

FROM GEORGIAN BAY
Local Simcoe County agencies encourage the use of natural shoreline protection methods over “hard” or structural methods. These methods are much easier on the environment; imitate natural systems, can interact naturally within the ecosystem, and save you a significant amount of money.
**Please be aware that permits are necessary for the installation of any wall and we get you through the process.
We know and understand the need to protect your home and existing shoreline while ensuring all required agencies and regulations are followed during the works.
