Silt fence installation for new builds and construction sites
Turf Dogs installs silt fencing to help contain sediment and protect surrounding property, drainage areas and downstream locations while soil is exposed. We serve home builders, general contractors, property owners and commercial site teams throughout Greater Columbia.
- New-home and residential construction
- Commercial building and site-development projects
- Cleared lots and active grading areas
- Perimeter sediment-control runs
- Low-side and drainage-sensitive placement
- Installation based on the approved site plan or project requirements
Send the project address, site plan when available, estimated linear footage and target installation date so we can prepare an accurate scope.
Brush cutting and site clearing
Overgrown brush, saplings and dense vegetation can prevent access, hide drainage problems and make land difficult to maintain. Turf Dogs cuts and clears unwanted growth to reopen usable areas and prepare sites for grading, seeding or future landscape work.
- Heavy brush and overgrowth cutting
- Sapling and volunteer-tree removal
- Fence-line, field and lot clearing
- Debris collection and hauling options
- Access preparation for equipment and construction
- Final mowing and manageable vegetation control
Land grading and slope correction
We reshape rough, uneven and disturbed ground to improve drainage, create usable elevations and prepare a consistent seedbed. Grading can correct low spots, direct surface water, smooth construction damage and transition soil into stable slopes.
- Rough and finish grading
- Low-spot correction and positive drainage
- Slope shaping and embankment preparation
- Soil spreading, leveling and compaction
- Seedbed preparation for hydroseed or sod
- Coordination with swales, drains and runoff outlets
Hydroseeding for large lawns and commercial sites
Hydroseeding applies seed, water, fiber mulch, fertilizer and tackifier as a uniform slurry. It provides efficient coverage across areas where traditional seeding is slow or sod is not cost-effective. Turf Dogs plans the mix and application around the site, season, soil and intended use.
Hydroseeding applications
- Commercial and government properties
- New construction and disturbed soil
- Large residential lawns and acreage
- Roadside, utility and common areas
- Overseeding and turf restoration
- Bermuda and site-appropriate seed blends
Erosion-control blanket installation
On slopes and drainage-sensitive areas, seed needs protection from rain, runoff and soil movement. We install biodegradable erosion-control blankets and secure them to follow the grade, protect seed and encourage establishment while vegetation takes root.
- Straw and biodegradable erosion blankets
- Slope and embankment stabilization
- Drainage swales and runoff channels
- Stapling and overlap suited to the grade
- Soil preparation, seeding and blanket installation
- Coordination with grading and drainage work
A complete land-to-lawn process
Results depend on more than spraying seed. Turf Dogs can take a site from exposed or uneven ground through silt-fence installation, brush cutting, grading, soil preparation, hydroseeding, erosion blankets and watering guidance as one coordinated scope.
Do you install silt fence for new-home construction?
Yes. We install silt fencing for new builds, cleared lots and active grading areas. Send the site plan, estimated linear footage and required installation date when available.
Can you clear and grade the property before seeding?
Yes. We can combine brush cutting, debris removal, grading, soil preparation, hydroseeding and erosion protection into one project.
When is an erosion blanket needed?
Blankets are especially helpful on slopes, drainage channels and exposed areas where rainfall could wash seed and soil away before roots establish.
Is hydroseeding less expensive than sod?
For large areas, hydroseeding is usually a more economical establishment method than sod, but it requires watering, suitable temperatures and time to mature.
Do you handle commercial and government projects?
Yes. Turf Dogs handles large-area and multi-site silt fencing, grading, clearing, hydroseeding and erosion-control work for commercial properties, facilities, construction sites and government projects.
