Florida Hydroseeding & Erosion Control (FHEC) provides hydroseeding, silt fence, turbidity barriers, erosion control mats, fabric-formed concrete, gabions and pond liners across Orange, Osceola, Seminole, Lake and Brevard counties: Orlando, Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Lake Nona, Sanford, Winter Park, Apopka, Clermont, Melbourne and Cocoa. We work for general contractors, developers, utilities, solar builders, FDOT and public agencies, and we take on residential projects too.
Much of the Orlando area sits on deep, well-drained sand. It drains so fast that new seed can dry out between waterings even in a rainy summer. On Central Florida projects FHEC adds moisture-retention amendments to the hydroseed slurry, matches mulch rates to the site, and tests soils through UF/IFAS extension offices when establishment is critical. The result is grass that actually takes, instead of a second mobilization to reseed.
Subdivisions, commercial pads and solar farms. Rapid development and utility-scale solar mean large disturbed areas that need fast, compliant stabilization. Our truck-mounted and track-mounted Finn HydroSeeders cover big acreage and can work on soft ground. See our 40-mile pipeline project for how we handle long, changing sites.
Ponds, lakes and retention areas. Central Florida’s lakes and stormwater ponds need stable banks. We pair hydroseeding with erosion control blankets, turf reinforcement mats, pond liners and fabric-formed concrete where water moves.
Central Florida projects typically involve the St. Johns River Water Management District or, in southern Orange and Osceola counties, the South Florida Water Management District, plus FDOT District Five for state roads, county environmental review, and Florida DEP’s NPDES Construction Generic Permit for sites disturbing an acre or more.
Yes. We mobilize crews and equipment to Orange, Osceola, Seminole, Lake and Brevard counties for commercial, public, solar and residential projects.
Usually because the sandy soil dries out. Moisture-retention amendments, the right mulch rate and a realistic watering plan fix most of it.
