Erosion Control

Erosion is the effect of natural elements in causing mobilization, transportation and deposition of soil particles. When the erosion issue isn’t address properly and in a timely manner, it can turn into a stability problem requiring interventions of larger scale. Green Orange Constructions offers various solutions to control erosion preventing stability issues in the long term. By offering cost effective design-build services we custom fit the best solution to address our client’s needs.

We install both light revetments as anchored turf reinforced mattresses as well as heavier solutions such gabions, articulated concrete blocks and rip-rap linings. Different alternatives depend on the severity of the existing erosion conditions, presence of vegetation, type of soils, water flow and other environmental and hydrological parameters.
