Keeping Up with Woodstock's Building Boom

Hydroseeding in Woodstock is tied closely to new construction. The city was ranked the tenth fastest-growing suburb in the country in 2007, and it is now one of Georgia's denser cities, with a lot of homes on 11 square miles. Every new street of houses means graded lots that need grass and sediment control.

Builder lots

On a typical subdivision lot, the yard is graded red clay with a thin skim of topsoil, if any. We fine grade, add topsoil where the builder left subsoil, and hydroseed with fertilizer and mulch. For builders, we can work lot by lot as houses close, so each yard is seeded in time for the walk-through.

Creeks running through town

Noonday Creek and the Little River both pass through Woodstock, and the city's Greenprints plan calls for trails along them and along U.S. Army Corps of Engineers land. Construction near those streams needs silt fence, inlet protection and quick final cover, because sediment from a few bare lots adds up fast in a small creek.

Crowded neighborhoods

With houses close together, runoff from one yard often lands in the next. When we grade a lawn, we make sure water moves toward the street or a swale, not toward the neighbor's foundation, and we finish with seed and mulch the same day if we can.

From railroad stop to suburb

Woodstock began as a stop on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, which hauled cotton and other farm goods through town. The farmland around that old depot is what the newer subdivisions sit on, so many lawns are built on worn Piedmont clay that benefits from topsoil and patience.

Woodstock Questions

Can you seed lots for a builder as houses close?

Yes. We can work lot by lot, grade and seed each yard on your schedule, and pull silt fence when it is no longer needed.

My new lawn is three years old and patchy. Start over?

Usually no. Aeration, a little topsoil in the low spots, and overseeding fix most young subdivision lawns.

Water from my neighbor's yard floods mine. Can grading help?

Often. We reshape the yard to carry water to the street or a swale, then seed the disturbed area.

Do sites near Noonday Creek need extra protection?

Yes. Before any dirt moves, the fence goes up and nearby drains get protected, and final seed goes down as soon as grading ends.

Is hydroseed cheaper than sod for a subdivision yard?

Generally yes, per square foot. Sod gives instant cover; hydroseed takes a few weeks but costs less and roots deeply.
