Seeding on the Slopes Above the Hudson

Hydroseeding in Greenburgh covers a lot of different ground. The town's western boundary is the Hudson River, with river villages like Tarrytown, Irvington, Dobbs Ferry and Hastings-on-Hudson, and the land climbs steeply away from the water. To the east it drains into the Bronx River system: the Sprain Brook, the Bronx River's longest tributary system, starts at Greenburgh Town Park.

Riverside slopes

The slope from the ridge down to the Hudson is the defining feature on the western side. Yards there tilt, and runoff picks up speed. We match the cover to the grade: tackified hydromulch for moderate slopes, a bonded fiber matrix for steeper ones, and erosion control blankets on the hardest banks. Silt fence at the bottom of the work catches anything that moves before grass roots in.

Quarries and rock

East Irvington was once home to Irish laborers who worked the large estates, the railroads, the docks and the stone quarries, and quarry remnants still exist. Rock close to the surface is common in parts of town. Where ledge or boulders leave thin soil, we bring in topsoil so the new lawn has enough depth to survive summer.

Unincorporated neighborhoods

Much of Greenburgh is unincorporated land outside the villages, formerly rural and now suburban. Those neighborhoods produce a steady stream of lawn renovation, regrading after additions and new lawn installation.

Greenburgh Questions

My lot slopes down toward the Hudson. What do you recommend?

It depends on the grade. Moderate slopes take a tackified mulch or BFM; steep banks get a staked blanket and silt fence at the toe.

I hit rock when I dig. Can I still have a lawn?

Yes, if there is enough soil over the rock. We add topsoil to reach a workable depth before seeding.

Do you work in the river villages too?

Yes, as well as the unincorporated parts of the town. Village rules may differ, so we check.

Can hydroseed fix a lawn torn up by a drainage project?

Yes. We regrade the trench lines, settle them and seed the whole disturbed area.

Do you protect storm drains during the job?

On any job where soil can reach a drain, we install inlet protection before starting.
