FiveRivers has exceptional experience in the structural design and installation of boardwalks and oak revetments, from timber to recycled plastic and molded composites. We deliver environmentally sensitive methodology in environmentally sensitive locations to build the boardwalk into the natural environment.

The Problems

Whether you’re replacing an old, rotten boardwalk or revetment, or installing a brand-new raised walkway, we ensure that each structure fits into the natural environment providing a pleasing aesthetic while connecting A to B.  

In natural settings, boardwalks help minimise soil erosion and protect sensitive ecosystems. By providing a defined pathway, they prevent foot traffic from damaging vegetation and wildlife habitats. 

Boardwalks make outdoor areas more accessible for everyone while well-designed boardwalks enhance the visual appeal of any landscape. It creates a natural flow and invites exploration, making outdoor spaces more inviting and enjoyable.  

The Solutions

Bespoke Design and Installation

Boardwalks bring together communities and places of interest. We offer the design and installation of boardwalks including viewing platforms, pond dipping areas, handrails, and passing places allowing the public undisturbed access.  

We advise on and source the most appropriate material for your boardwalk. If timber is your preferred material, we sustainably source all timber to compile with UK timber procurement regulations. As well as recycled plastic options, which is becoming more popular.

  • Quality Materials: We use only the highest quality materials that ensure durability and sustainability. Our selections include pressure-treated wood, composite materials, and eco-friendly options, all designed to withstand the elements. 
  • Custom Solutions: Every project is unique. We offer personalised solutions to fit any space, whether it’s a residential garden, a commercial property, or a public park. 
  • Professional Installation: Our skilled craftspeople ensure that your boardwalk is built to the highest standards. We handle every aspect of the installation process, guaranteeing a seamless and efficient experience.  

In addition to boardwalks, we have many years of experience in oak revetments. 

We craft durable and ecologically sensitive oak revetments to combat riverbank erosion. Our approach integrates traditional materials with modern bio-engineering techniques, ensuring both structural integrity and environmental harmony. Oak Revetments are an aesthetic approach for erosion protection and bank stabilisation.
