Erosion Control

When soil is moved from one place to another, it is known as erosion. Erosion can become a messy and expensive problem if left unchecked. Erosion’s byproduct is sediment. Perhaps you have noticed sediment on the streets near a hillside after a rainstorm. There are numerous factors which affect how quickly a surface erodes such as moisture and wind. Luckily, there are several solutions and erosion control methods. We begin by performing an inspection and trying to get to the root cause of your erosion. After that, we make recommend solutions based on your unique situation and needs.

Retaining Walls Are Great For Soil Stabilization

Retaining Walls

A retaining wall is a great way to control erosion through soil stabilization. It works by countering the forces of gravity and offering support to a slope. Retaining walls Erosion Controlhave long been used both to control erosion, as well as to turn an unusable slope into productive land. Retaining walls can help if a sliding hill is threatening your home.

There are several different types of retaining walls to choose from. For example, there are concrete retaining walls and shotcrete ones as well. We can help you decide which type of retaining wall is right for you. You can even use a gabion as a retaining wall.

Soil Erosion Control Using Gabions

Gabions

Erosion Control MethodsA gabion is a wire mesh filled with rocks or stones. It can be used to create walls, benches and similar application. However, it can also be used for erosion control purposes including soil erosion control. When gabions are stacked high along the slopes of a hillside, they help keep the hillside or slope in place.

Gabions are easy to install and the entire construction project is often done expeditiously. They are also relatively inexpensive compared to traditional retaining walls. The way they are designed makes them great for drainage. Also, gabions are resistant to both rust and water erosion and typically last a very long time.

Advantages Of Gabions

Construction is not a complex process and is typically done quickly and easily.

Gabion baskets do not rust easily and are resistant to water erosion. The materials it is made with tend to last for many problem-free years.

The number of things gabions can be used for is virtually limitless. They can be used along side ponds and riverbanks as well as for slope stabilization and drainage channels. They are also useful for erosion control on beaches.

Gabions lend themselves nicely to controlling drainage problems. They usually break up the pressure of water which flows through it and make for more natural drainage.

More storage space: You don’t typically think of your crawl space as a storage space. This is because it is usually damp, dirty and will damage most things you store in there. This is not true for an encapsulated crawl space. A well encapsulated crawl space is free of moisture and dirt and is ideal for storage. Crawl space repair actually frees up space in the rest of your home.
