Erosion Control on Steep Slopes
(where riprap isn’t possible)
Although riprap is usually the best and most durable way to control erosion, sometimes it just isn′t economical or physically possible. (On rare occasions your city or county may not even permit it.)
No problem. Lakeshore Guys® can stabilize just about any embankment or eroding shoreline. We use a variety of native grasses in the form of hydro seed, impregnated erosion blanket, or traditional potted plants & plugs.
We can even incorporate the installation of soil-reinforcement fabric (e.g. Geogrid), if your situation requires it.
Do you know what HP-FGM is? It’s a good thing we do. It happens to be the most technologically advanced hydraulically applied mulch on planet earth! If you have a steep slope that requires erosion control, you’ll want HP-FGM (High Performance-Flexible Growth Medium), and someone experienced like Lakeshore Guys® to apply it at just the right thickness, with just the right amount of additives, specialty fertilizers, and passion.
We have 20+ years of experience in preventing erosion. We’ve got specialized knowledge and specialized equipment.(Can you spot the Lego-sized guy in the picture? He rappelled down the side of that cliff!) There’s not much we can’t do to help you combat erosion.
