The Grass Guys were prompt, friendly, very efficient, the lawn coverage was very good. Their advice for which variety of seed to use for our application, and how to look after and to water the area hydroseeded, was very comprehensive and clear. I would be very happy to recommend The Grass Guys to anyone for large or garden size hydroseeding without hesitation.

Silt Fencing
Stay on schedule and safeguard waterways with The Grass Guys’ full-service silt fencing solution. We handle everything from precision installation—trenched skirts, UV-stabilised geotextile fabric and steel stakes—to proactive decommissioning once your landscaping or earthworks are complete. Our approach not only meets Bay of Plenty Regional Council standards but is staged to align with your project milestones, so you never face delays or unexpected removal work.
Imperative for any site with exposed soil, silt fencing is your first line of defence against sediment runoff. Without it, fine particles wash into drains and waterways, triggering compliance breaches, costly fines, and reputational damage. By trapping over 90 percent of eroded soils at the source, our fences protect aquatic habitat, prevent downstream sedimentation and demonstrate your commitment to environmental stewardship.
