Silt Fence

Silt fence is the front line of sediment control on any disturbed site. Deep South Hydroseeding installs silt fence to spec across Mississippi — fabric trenched in, backfilled and compacted, stakes on proper spacing — so it holds through Gulf South downpours and passes inspection. We install perimeter silt fence, inlet protection and ditch checks for contractors, developers, utility crews and homeowners, and we come back to maintain the runs for the life of the job.

How we do it

1. 1

   Layout

   We run the fence along the contour, at the downslope limits of disturbance, per your SWPPP or site plan.

2. 2

   Trench and set

   Fabric is keyed into a trench, backfilled and compacted so water cannot undercut it.

3. 3

   Stake and secure

   Stakes on tight spacing with fabric fastened, joints properly overlapped and wrapped.

4. 4

   Maintenance

   We return to clean out accumulated sediment, repair damaged runs and remove fence at project close-out.

Frequently asked

How much does silt fence installation cost in Mississippi?

Silt fence is priced per linear foot and depends on the total run, site access, soil and whether the ground has to be cut in by machine or hand. Call (601) 616-1622 with your footage and we will give you a firm number.

Do you handle inspections and repairs?

Yes. We maintain fence for the life of the project, including sediment removal, re-staking, replacement of damaged sections and end-of-job removal.

How fast can you mobilize?

Most Mississippi sites can be scheduled within a few days, and we do our best to work in emergency repairs ahead of a rain event or an inspection. Call (601) 616-1622 for current availability.

Does silt fence meet SWPPP and NPDES requirements?

Installed correctly, silt fence is the standard perimeter control on an NPDES-permitted site. We trench, compact and stake to spec so it holds up during MDEQ and engineer inspections.

What areas do you install silt fence in?

We install silt fence statewide — Laurel, Hattiesburg, Jackson, Meridian, Brandon, Madison, Gulfport, Biloxi, Ocean Springs, Waynesboro, Collins, Magee and surrounding areas, plus parts of Alabama and Louisiana.

Do you pair silt fence with seeding or blankets?

Often, yes. Perimeter silt fence plus hydroseeding or erosion control blankets on the disturbed slopes is the fastest way to get a site stabilized and off the inspector's list.
