Silt Fence Installation
Protect Your Property with Professional Silt Fence Installation in Savannah, GA
When it comes to protecting your property during construction or landscaping projects, silt fences are one of the most effective erosion control solutions available. At Savannah’s Landscaping Services, we offer expert silt fence installation to help contractors, builders, and homeowners stay compliant with local regulations, prevent soil loss, and protect coastal Georgia’s waterways.
Whether you’re grading a new residential lot, expanding a commercial property, or managing a large-scale land development project, stormwater runoff and erosion can cause serious costly delays. Our professionally installed silt fences create a strong, durable barrier that traps sediment while allowing water to flow safely through—keeping your project site clean, compliant, and environmentally responsible.
Types of Silt Fencing We Install
We utilize commercial-grade geosynthetics and fencing materials designed to withstand coastal Georgia weather and heavy runoff:
– GA DOT Type A Silt Fence: The standard for most residential and light commercial sites. Features a 36-inch high woven geotextile fabric supported by sturdy wood or steel posts, ideal for standard perimeter protection.
– Wire Back Type C Silt Fence: Engineered for high-flow areas, steep slopes, and heavy commercial development. This heavy-duty option reinforces the filter fabric with a wire mesh backing and steel T-posts to prevent blowouts during severe Savannah rainstorms.
Savannah & Chatham County Stormwater Compliance
Failing to properly manage job site erosion can result in steep fines and stop-work orders. Our team is fully versed in Chatham County and Georgia EPD (Environmental Protection Division) stormwater runoff regulations. We ensure your perimeter controls are trenched, backfilled, and tensioned correctly to pass local municipal inspections the first time.
Our Professional Installation Process
1. Site Assessment: We evaluate your grading plan and natural water flow to determine the most effective placement and fence type.
2. Proper Trenching: Unlike amateur installations that simply staple fabric to posts, we excavate a proper 6-inch trench to bury the bottom edge of the filter fabric, preventing water from undercutting the fence.
3. Secure Anchoring: Posts are driven deep into the soil and spaced appropriately to ensure the fence remains upright under heavy sediment loads.
We handle projects of all sizes across Savannah, Pooler, Richmond Hill, Hinesville, and surrounding areas.
