Erosion Control
Erosion Control in the NC Piedmont Triad
Keep your soil, your driveway and your investment right where you put it. We design and install erosion control that stands up to Piedmont clay and heavy Carolina rain.
Serving Greensboro, High Point, Winston-Salem & the NC Piedmont Triad
Protect the Ground You've Worked For
The Piedmont Triad's clay soil and steep pockets make erosion one of the biggest long-term threats to a rural or residential property. Cleared land, new driveways and freshly graded pads are all vulnerable until the ground is protected.
KNS LandWorx installs erosion control that fits the site: silt fence, riprap, check dams, swales, seeding and mulch protection. It's the difference between a site that holds together for years and one that ends up in the ditch after the next storm.
What You Get With KNS LandWorx
Why Erosion Control Belongs on Every Project
A single heavy storm can undo weeks of grading, mulching and seeding if the site isn't protected. Once erosion starts, it compounds: rills become gullies, gullies collect debris and repairs get expensive.
The right erosion control up front is almost always cheaper than fixing washout later. We build erosion protection into the plan for every clearing, grading and drainage job that needs it.
Our Process
A straightforward path from overgrown land to a finished job you can be proud of.
- 1
Site Assessment
We identify slope, soil type, water paths and any areas that concentrate runoff.
- 2
Right-Sized Plan
We pick the right mix of silt fence, riprap, swales, matting or vegetation for the site, not a one-size checklist.
- 3
Installation
All erosion control is installed to spec, keyed in and anchored so the first big storm doesn't blow it out.
- 4
Establish Cover
Seeding and mulching are used where possible so long-term vegetation takes over from temporary protection.
Ideal For Piedmont Triad Property Owners Who Need
- Newly cleared or mulched land
- Freshly graded pads and driveways
- Steep slopes and hillsides
- Around streams, ponds and wetlands
- Construction sites during and after work
- Property that has already started to wash

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need erosion control on a residential job?
If we've cleared, graded or disturbed the soil, yes. The scale is smaller than a large land-clearing site, but the physics is the same.
What is silt fence and where does it go?
Silt fence is a filter fabric fence installed downslope of disturbed ground to slow runoff and trap sediment before it leaves the site. We install it when required by local rules or when the site conditions make it necessary, it isn't needed on every job.
Is riprap only for creeks?
No. Riprap is used anywhere concentrated water hits soil, including driveway outfalls, culvert ends and steep swales, and it's also used for aesthetics, like a clean rock border along a drive, pond edge or landscape bed.
How long does erosion control need to stay in place?
Until the site is stabilized with permanent vegetation. That's usually a full growing season for most Piedmont Triad projects.
Can you fix an area that's already eroded?
Yes. We regrade, install the right stabilization and revegetate so the site stops losing ground.
Where do you install erosion control?
Across the NC Piedmont Triad including Greensboro, High Point, Winston-Salem, Kernersville, Oak Ridge, Summerfield, Stokesdale, Colfax, Burlington, Lexington, Thomasville, Reidsville and Asheboro.
