Erosion Control & What We Offer
- Riprap installation to stabilize slopes and shorelines against water erosion.
- Straw mats and Excelsior blankets for quick, eco-friendly soil cover and vegetation growth. These are great for holding moisture in for the seedbed, and slowing down water to prevent erosion on loose dirt.
- Seedbed prep & seeding/fertilizing slopes for quick germination & growth.
- Silt fencing to trap sediment and prevent runoff on construction sites.
- Grading and contouring to redirect water and reduce erosion risks.
Drainage Solutions & What We Offer
- French drains & drain culverts to redirect groundwater and prevent pooling around foundations.
- Precision grade work to slope land for optimal water flow and runoff control.
- Swales and ditches to channel stormwater away from structures and low areas.
- Culvert installation for efficient drainage under roads and driveways.
Why Choose Us?
- We’re from here, and we’re invested in growing our business in Southern Illinois. That means using local vendors & subcontractors where and when we can, further investing into our small communities across Southern Illinois.
- Almost two decades of shared experience at the ownership level. Justin grew up in this business, spending every hour he could at his uncle Kenneth’s shop & jobsites as a kid. He then moved onto working for him full time until branching out and starting Redd Excavation.
- We know the dirt & the conditions that can arise across various parts of Southern Illinois. Not all dirt is created equal, and you can find the whole gambit across our region, from rocky sandstone hills, to deep rich topsoil filled bottom ground. As such, each site’s drainage solutions will be different, and we have the expertise to navigate that decision making process.
