Seeding Lawns Between the Mountain and the Lake

Hydroseeding in Cumming covers a lot more ground than the city itself. Cumming is Forsyth County's only incorporated city, just over 6 square miles, but surrounding areas with Cumming addresses hold roughly 100,000 people. Most of that is newer suburban development, and most of it needs lawns.

Commuter growth

Georgia 400 turned Cumming from a small rural town into a commuter suburb of Atlanta. Subdivisions that came with it were often graded from farm and forest land, leaving clay at the surface. We fine grade, add topsoil where it is missing, and hydroseed yards so they green up without the cost of sod.

Sawnee Mountain slopes

Sawnee Mountain Preserve looks down on the city, and lots on the mountain's lower flanks come with real grades. On those we use hydromulch with tackifier, or erosion control blankets on the steep cuts, and shape swales so runoff does not concentrate.

Lake Lanier

Buford Dam on the Chattahoochee began operating in 1956 and created Lake Lanier, which is a source of drinking water for Cumming. Sediment from bare lots and road cuts ends up in the lake's coves. For homes and projects that drain toward Lanier, silt fence and fast cover are not optional.

Lake lots

Lakeside lots tend to slope steeply to the water. We grade them in sections with silt fence along the bottom, seed and mulch each section as soon as it is finished, and use deeper-rooted mixes near the shoreline where mowing is not practical.

Cumming Questions

Do you work outside Cumming city limits?

Yes, across the Cumming address area in Forsyth County.

My lot is on the side of Sawnee Mountain. What will hold the slope?

Hydromulch with tackifier on moderate grades and erosion control blankets on the steep cuts, with seed under both.

Why does it matter where my lot drains near Lanier?

The lake is a drinking water source. Silt fence and fast seeding keep your soil out of its coves.

Can you seed a whole new subdivision yard at once?

Yes. One hydroseed application covers the yard with seed, fertilizer and mulch together.

Is fescue or Bermuda better in Cumming?

Fescue suits shaded and north-facing yards; Bermuda suits open, sunny lots. Many yards need some of each.
