​
As businesses across British Columbia, Canada turn to eco-friendly solutions for landscaping and erosion control, hydroseeding emerges as a cost-effective and environmentally conscious choice. Hydroseeding, a process that involves spraying a slurry of seed, fertilizer, and mulch over a designated area, has gained popularity for its efficacy and versatility--it's ideal for retaining stockpiles, stabilizing slopes, and revitalizing soil. We've experienced and explored the benefits of hydroseeding over the years, so we can shed light on its application and effectiveness in the natural habitats of the Pacific Northwest.
​
Contractors often overlook the importance of a proper erosion control plan from the start, only to realize that their sediment control budget tripled after the fact. That's because you can't do effective sediment control without preventing erosion, they go hand-in-hand. If done right, your investments into erosion control will pay for its self by reducing your sediment control budget. The best way to mitigate excessive sediment run-off is to prevent it. Evergreen knows how to manage how water flows into, through, and out of your work site.
HYDROSEEDING FOR
YOUR PROJECT
An Overview
Erosion and Sediment Control
Hydroseeding stands out as a superior method for erosion and sediment control. The slurry creates a protective layer that mitigates soil erosion, making it particularly beneficial for hilly terrains and construction sites.

Environmentally Friendly
Hydroseeding reduces the need for traditional erosion control methods that involve netting or blankets, minimizing environmental impact. The slurry, comprising seeds, fertilizers, and mulch, fosters sustainable plant growth. It also avoids the need for maintenance and additional clean-up.
Quick Germination: The hydroseeding process accelerates germination, allowing for faster establishment of grass or vegetation compared to traditional seeding methods. This is ideal for soil health and stabilization.
​
Cost-Effective
Hydroseeding is a cost-effective alternative to sodding and other techniques, making it an attractive choice for large areas such as lawns, stockpiles, slopes, sports fields, and commercial landscapes. It's an practical way to reduce your material costs.

Easy Maintenance
Adequate watering is crucial for hydroseed success, but that's all it takes. A consistent watering schedule, especially during the initial weeks, promotes fast germination and healthy growth and establishment.
