Seeding Along the Peace River

Hydroseeding in Harbour Heights is tied to the Peace River. The community sits in northern Charlotte County on the northwest side of the river, about 6 miles from Punta Gorda and a mile from Interstate 75. About 11 percent of its 2.4 square miles is water, and many lots slope toward the river or its inlets.

A river that drains a big, wet basin

The Peace River runs 76 miles and drains about 2,300 square miles. Its watershed is low-lying, with many wetlands and lakes, and it reaches Charlotte Harbor near Punta Gorda. Fresh water from the river keeps the harbor's salinity in balance, which is why sediment and runoff from riverside construction get attention here.

Riverbank and slope work

Riverfront and canal lots are where we use the most erosion control: seed under straw blankets on bank faces, bonded fiber matrix on steeper cuts, and silt fence along the bottom while the grass establishes. On flatter upland yards, standard hydromulch is enough.

New homes and storm repair

When a new house goes up on an empty lot, or an older yard is torn up for repairs, we finish with yard grading, topsoil where the fill is poor, and a hydroseed lawn. Our crews can also trench for drainage where a lot holds water.

Harbour Heights Questions

Can you stabilize a riverbank behind my house?

On the upland part of the bank, yes, with seed and an erosion control blanket. Work at or below the waterline may need a permit.

Why is runoff from my lot a concern?

Sediment and nutrients that reach the Peace River end up in Charlotte Harbor. Keeping soil covered protects both.

Do you seed new homes in Harbour Heights?

Yes, from final grading through the hydroseed lawn.

Is hydroseeding cheaper than sod on a large river lot?

Usually much cheaper, especially on big or sloped yards. Your written estimate gives the exact price.
