Hydroseeding is a technically proven
and one of the most widely used methods of planting commercial grass projects
like subdivisions, parks, schools, golf courses, landfills, dam sites and along
the sides of highways.
Hydroseeding is not new, it has been used around the world for better than 50
years. Though the process is not new, the new advancements in the materials we
use are amazing.
Hydroseeding, or in some
parts of the country called Hydro mulching, is a mixture of water, mulch,
seed, and tackifing agents. We can also add fertilizers, lime, organic
biostimulants for fast growth, and copolymers for water retention. It is all
mixed in our large hydroseeding unit then applied hydraulically (sprayed) on the
ground.
Hydroseeding creates an
ideal microenvironment for germinating seed. After the short period it takes to
establish, the hydroseeded area is deeper rooted and healthier than a standard
sodded area.
We can plant almost any
type of grass. In this part of the country, your lawn grasses are warm season
types such as Bermuda’s, centipede and zoysia. We get allot of calls for St.
Augustine, this is a vegetative type grass that must be sodded or sprigged.
There are programs trying to develop a viable seed but it is not available
yet. For commercial and residential grassing or erosion control, we can use your
specifications or recommend what will work in your situation year round.
Hydroseeding is very cost
effective compared to other methods of establishing grass. As we like to say, hydroseeding
is a fraction of the price of sod. For example, a square foot of sod
installed in this area costs from .25 cents on up to .45 cents a square
foot. We can save you one-half to two-thirds the cost of installed sod. Our hydroseeding
rates are from .06 to .12 cents per square foot, depending on the size of the
area and type of seed planted. For larger areas, generally more than an acre and
large scale commercial erosion control projects are rates are even better giving
you more value of your construction dollars. Our bids are very competitive.
