What Is Rip Rap?

Rip rap refers to large, angular stones or rock fragments placed along embankments, ditches, or shorelines to prevent erosion caused by flowing water or heavy rainfall. It acts as a physical barrier that slows water movement, disperses energy, and keeps soil from washing away.

Southern Valley Solutions supplies and installs various grades of rip rap for residential, commercial, and municipal applications, using environmentally responsible practices that support both durability and drainage.
