Rivershore Marine, is a Class A contractor who offers a wide variety of services along the tidal Potomac. Our barges have traveled as far south as Kinsale and as north as D.C. Our crews have worked many other rivers and inland sites throughout Virginia and Maryland. At Rivershore Marine, our number one priority is quality. We pride ourselves in finding the best solution for every need. Specializing in the use of the newest technologies there are to offer, we are able to find alternatives that the traditional marine contractor would never dream of. Both saving money and better meeting the customer’s ascetical needs. Many times these alternatives last longer than traditional methods and have a better impact on the environment. Our equipment is top of the line and state of the art, allowing us to drive piles deeper in the river bottom no matter how hard it is. This protects your investment against Mother Nature. Furthermore, we hold our suppliers to a higher standard. Many lines have been dropped simply because their products are not of a quality we want to stamp our name on. We protect and stand by our customers to the end. Customer service is not a department at Rivershore Marine is the lifeline of our existence.
Rivershore marine started out as a dock builder. A pile driver, boat, and truck started out the business. Very quickly the customers in our territory were demanding qualified people to stop the erosion at their shorelines. Going back to our roots Rivershore Marine got into the erosion control business. A Caterpillar 320 was purchased. This track hoe is bigger than most you will see in this industry.
Pile driver: Our pile driver is a 25 X 10 capable of driving a 28 foot pile in no water. Most everywhere we can drive 30 footers or bigger. It is completely powered by Biodegradable Hydraulic oils so we do not harm our beautiful river. Because it is Hydraulic, we keep safety first, with no cables breaking over our heads. It can both be spudded or work off of anchors. It can also be trucked anywhere for quick mobilization.
Big Barge: 90 x 23 this 70 ton monster gives up unlimited capabilities. It has floated everything from Tanks for the ARMY, to cranes, huge and small excavators, bobcats, skid steers. We have even built sages on it so that Pop stars such as Taylor Swift and Michael Peterson could perform to thousands of boats in the water. With recently upgraded spuds, we are capable of spudding this barge in 30 feet of water.
Track hoe: Our track hoe or Excavator is a 46000 pound machine capable of lifting 20000 pounds. We have many buckets for digging as well as Hydraulic hammers. Teamed with our Big Barge this combo has driven 50 foot pilings and even a 5400 pound 60 foot steel piling 16 inches in diameter.
Dump Truck: Our Mack tri-axel dump truck has a steel body with a swing gate. This allows us to haul anything from dirt to brush and debris as well as rip rap and armor stone, and it is a Mack so it is bulldog tough.
Skid Steer: Our brand new Mustang Skid steer is our newest addition. It is a tracked machine weighing in over 10500 pounds. It is the biggest in the business. Allowing us to Finnish jobs ourselves and handle material more efficiently. With the thousands of attachments available our capabilities are infinite with this machine on land or on our barge.
Boats: Of course we have many boats to aid in mobilization and to work off of.
