Erosion Control Wattles Installation
Erosion control wattles — also known as fiber rolls or sediment logs — are an effective solution for controlling runoff, reducing slope erosion, and filtering sediment before it leaves a construction site. When installed correctly, wattles help stabilize soil while supporting vegetation growth.
Eastern Erosion Control provides professional wattle installation for construction sites, slopes, stormwater pathways, and environmentally sensitive areas. We evaluate the terrain, drainage flow, and soil composition to determine the proper spacing, placement, and anchoring needed for maximum effectiveness.
Wattles are particularly useful for temporary erosion control during active construction, but they can also support longer-term stabilization when paired with seeding or matting systems.

Wattles FAQs
What are erosion control wattles?
Wattles are fiber-filled tubes placed along slopes or drainage paths to slow runoff and capture sediment.
Where are wattles most effective?
They are commonly used on slopes, perimeter areas, drainage channels, and around active construction zones.
Are wattles environmentally friendly?
Many wattles are biodegradable, making them a sustainable erosion control option.
Can wattles be combined with other erosion measures?
Yes — they’re often used alongside seeding, matting, or fencing for comprehensive protection.
