Hydroseeding in Greer, SC

Greer has grown faster than almost any city in the Upstate, climbing from 25,515 residents in 2010 to 35,308 in 2020, and hydroseeding has followed that growth from the Greenville County side to the Spartanburg County side. New subdivisions, new roads and new warehouses all leave the same thing behind: acres of raw clay that need grass before the rain moves them.

The South Tyger and the lakes

The South Tyger River runs through the northern part of the city and belongs to the Broad River watershed. Greer also has three lakes inside or near its limits: Apalache Lake, Lake Cunningham and the 800-acre Lake Robinson. When we stabilize ground that drains toward those waters, we put more weight on silt fence, inlet protection and a fast hydromulch cover than we would on a flat lot in the middle of a neighborhood.

Industrial and commercial ground

Greer is home to BMW's largest plant in North America, the South Carolina Inland Port and the edge of Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport. Supplier buildings, truck yards and parking expansions near those sites produce long fill slopes and detention pond banks. For that kind of work we spray bonded fiber matrix or heavy hydromulch, which holds better than straw on a steep face and does not blow onto a runway or a loading dock.

Two counties, two offices

Because the city spans Greenville and Spartanburg counties, the inspector who signs off on your lot depends on which side of the line you are on. We ask for your permit paperwork up front so the seeding plan matches what that office expects to see.

Homeowner work

Not every job is industrial. Plenty of Greer homeowners call after a builder leaves a thin, patchy yard, or after a septic or irrigation line has been trenched across the lawn. We grade out the ruts, add topsoil where the clay is bare and spray a seed mix suited to the yard's sun.
