Rip rap acts as a top layer of loose, angular stone used to resist erosion. Commonly used for riverbanks and stream stabilization, rip rap prevents soil migration and supports landscape longevity. A graded mixture of stone sizes is essential for effective installation. Using a filter material underneath helps ensure soil retention. Rip rap may also come from concrete rubble. For effective application, it should be twice as thick as the largest rock size. We also provide large landscape boulders for sale near me for major construction and aesthetic needs.
