Seeding with the 2009 Flood in Mind

Hydroseeding in Douglasville is shaped by memory of the September 2009 flood. More than 18 inches of rain fell in one night, destroying roads and homes, and Douglasville was one of the hardest-hit areas. Rain like that is rare, but it shows how quickly bare ground and poor drainage turn into real damage.

Grading first

The best erosion control is a yard that moves water where it should go. On new lots and regrades, we shape swales, keep water away from foundations and make sure low spots drain. Then we seed and mulch, and line swales with erosion control blankets where flow will concentrate.

High ground, fast runoff

Douglasville sits at about 1,209 feet. Hilly lots shed water fast, and the slopes below them take the hit. Banks get hydromulch with tackifier or bonded fiber matrix, and silt fence stays on the low side until grass is up.

Growing suburb

The city grew from 20,065 people in 2000 to 34,650 in 2020. New subdivisions and retail around the Douglas Boulevard corridor mean graded lots and commercial pads that need hydroseeding, inlet protection and sediment control to close out.

Sweetwater Creek

Sweetwater Creek State Park, 2,549 acres with a 215-acre lake, lies about 7 miles east of town. Its trails follow the creek to the ruins of a mill burned in the Civil War. Streams in this part of the county carry whatever washes off construction sites, so silt fence and quick cover matter.

Douglasville Questions

Water pools near my foundation after storms. Can you fix it before seeding?

Yes. We regrade to carry water away and add a swale if needed, then seed the disturbed area.

What goes in a swale that carries a lot of water?

Seed under an erosion control blanket, so flow does not wash the seed out before roots form.

Can hydroseed handle a steep bank?

With tackifier, bonded fiber matrix or blankets, yes.

Do you work for builders around Douglas Boulevard?

Yes, from the silt fence and inlet protection at the start through the last round of seed.

How soon after seeding is the soil protected?

The mulch layer protects it right away; roots take a few weeks to hold it on their own.
