FAQs
What does a silt fence actually do?
A silt fence helps slow stormwater runoff and captures sediment before it leaves a construction site.
When should sediment controls be installed?
Sediment controls should be installed before earthworks or excavation begins to minimise environmental impact and maintain site compliance.
How often should silt fences be inspected?
Silt fences should be inspected regularly, particularly after heavy rain or storm events.
What are coir logs used for?
Coir logs help stabilise soil and reduce erosion around drains, batters, waterways and sediment-sensitive areas.
Can sediment control help with council compliance?
Yes. Proper erosion and sediment controls are often required to help projects meet council and environmental compliance requirements.
Do sediment controls require maintenance?
Yes. Regular maintenance helps ensure that erosion and sediment controls continue to perform effectively throughout the project.
Why is hydroseeding important?
Hydroseeding assists with rapid vegetation establishment, helping stabilise exposed soils and reduce erosion risks.
