Sediment control
Professional sediment control installation
Sediment control devices catch soil carried by stormwater before it leaves a construction site. Herndon Inc. installs silt fence, sediment tubes, silt socks, and other filtration devices to keep sediment on site and out of streets, storm drains, and waterways.
Sediment controls work best alongside erosion controls such as seeding and matting, and our crews install both.
We also install sediment basin baffles and inlet protection, and remove built-up silt from sediment controls so they keep working.

Common questions
Sediment control FAQ
What is sediment control?
Sediment control is the set of devices that trap soil already moving in stormwater, before it leaves the site. Silt fence and sediment tubes are common examples.
Which sediment control devices do you install?
Herndon Inc. installs silt fence, sediment tubes, silt socks, and other filtration devices based on your project plans and specifications.
Do you also handle erosion control?
Yes. Our crews also install hydroseeding, mulch, and erosion control matting so one team covers your site.
What are sediment basin baffles?
Baffles are porous barriers installed across a sediment basin. They slow water moving through the basin so more sediment settles out before the water is released.
