Hydroseeding in Calhoun, GA
Hydroseeding sprays seed, mulch and tackifier over prepared ground. On the acreage common around Calhoun it is the practical way to get grass established over large open areas.
It is the usual finish after clearing or grading work.
Covering ground after clearing
Freshly cleared and graded soil is exposed and will move in the first hard rain. Hydroseeding puts cover on it quickly and at a cost that makes sense across acres rather than square feet.
Because Tony's does the clearing and grading, the spraying can follow immediately while the surface is still right.
Slopes, banks and drainage routes
The tackifier holds seed on a bank where dry seed washes to the bottom. Cut slopes, drainage swales and shoulders along a new drive are all good candidates.
