Less Mud in Ditches and Streams
Sediment is soil that rain carries off a site. It fills ditches, clogs culverts and clouds creeks downhill. Catching it at the edge of your land keeps the soil where it belongs.

Erosion Control
Erosion control keeps soil from washing off your land when it rains. One storm can strip a lot of soil off a bare slope or job site. We set barriers that catch muddy runoff and cover the ground so it holds. That protects your yard, your driveway and the streams downhill.
Weather Tech Roofing holds Georgia Soil and Water Conservation Commission certification number 0000108644. We are based in Elberton and handle erosion control in Hartwell, Danielsville and Comer. Our team also protects homes, farms and job sites across Northeast Georgia.
Call us or request a free estimate if bare ground is washing on your property. We can plan protection for a single slope, a ditch or a full building site.
What's Included
Good erosion control does two jobs. It holds soil in place, and it catches what moves. Barriers go along the low side, then mulch, seed or blankets cover the soil. Erosion work in Northeast Georgia has to hold up to sudden, heavy summer storms.

Silt fence runs along the low side of the work, following the lay of the land. The bottom of the fabric is buried in a trench so water cannot slip under. The ends turn uphill so muddy water pools behind the fence and drops its soil. As a grading contractor, Weather Tech Roofing holds GSWCC certification for this work.
Georgia erosion practice calls for checking silt fence weekly and after every half-inch rain. Torn fabric, gaps and built-up mud should be fixed right away.
Where We Work
We are based in Elberton. We work on homes, farms and job sites across Northeast Georgia.
View All Service AreasNew home sites need protection from the first day of grading until the lawn is in. Steep road banks and cut slopes wash into gullies when they stay bare. Farm ditches and field edges can carve deeper with every storm. We match the method to the problem, from silt fence to a seeded, blanketed slope.
Steeper slopes and bigger drainage areas change the approach. A gentle yard may only need mulch and seed. A long, steep bank may need blankets, plus rock to slow water in a ditch. Hydroseeding, a sprayed blend of seed, mulch and water, suits large or sloped areas.

Yes, small projects still need basic protection, even when they fall under the one-acre state threshold. Silt fence and quick cover keep soil out of ditches, streets and neighbors' yards.
Fast water in a bare ditch cuts into the soil each time it rains. Lining the ditch with grass, blankets or rock slows the water down.
