Choosing the Right Erosion Control Materials for Every Job

November 1, 2025

As the rainy season approaches, choosing the right erosion control materials is key to protecting landscapes and maintaining site stability. The right combination of products not only prevents costly washouts but also helps contractors meet local stormwater regulations. With wattles, jute netting, and drainage fittings on sale this month, it is the perfect time to prepare your job sites for winter weather.

Wattles: Your First Line of Defense

Straw wattles are one of the most effective erosion control materials for reducing sediment and slowing runoff on slopes or disturbed areas. They are quick to install, easy to move, and work well along perimeters, driveways, and around job sites. By intercepting water flow, wattles help keep sediment from leaving the site and entering storm drains.

Jute Netting: Long-Term Slope Stabilization

When long-term stabilization is needed, jute netting provides reliable protection. Made from 100% biodegradable fibers, this natural erosion control material holds soil in place while vegetation establishes. It is ideal for slopes, embankments, and newly seeded areas. Jute netting also promotes healthy root growth, ensuring soil stays secure even in heavy rain.

Drainage Products: Keep Water Moving

Proper drainage is a crucial part of any erosion control plan. Catch basins, channel drains, and French drains help redirect excess water away from vulnerable areas. When used alongside wattles and jute netting, these erosion control materials create a complete system that reduces runoff, prevents erosion, and protects surrounding structures.
