WM Tucker provides erosion control services that protect land from runoff, soil loss, and long term damage across Middle Tennessee. With over 20 years of experience, we focus on controlling water movement and stabilizing disturbed areas before erosion problems escalate.
EROSION CONTROL SERVICES
We provide erosion control solutions for properties affected by water runoff, slope instability, and soil displacement. Every site is evaluated for slope, soil type, and water flow patterns.
- Correcting Water Runoff
- Seeding And Erosion Matting
- Silt Fencing
- Sediment Control
- Permanent Stablization
Our erosion control work is designed to solve problems at the source, not just mask surface damage. We shape grades, install stone and stabilization systems, and direct water away from structures, driveways, and usable land. This reduces soil loss, protects tree roots, and prevents long-term damage caused by uncontrolled runoff. For properties in Middle Tennessee, where heavy rain and clay soils are common, proper erosion control is critical to maintaining stable ground and avoiding repeat repairs.
WHY EROSION CONTROL MATTERS
Uncontrolled erosion can damage driveways, drainage systems, ponds, and usable land. Once soil begins to move, problems often spread quickly.
Effective erosion control protects property value and reduces future repair costs.
- Preventing Soil Loss
- Stabilizing Slopes
- Protecting Drainage Systems
- Reducing Sediment Movement
- Improving Long Term Land Performance
RUNOFF AND WATER CONTROL
Water movement is the main cause of erosion. Managing how water enters and leaves a property is key to stopping soil loss.
Each solution is designed to slow, redirect, or safely discharge water.
- Surface Runoff Redirection
- Slope Adjustments
- Drainage Channel Control
- Water Flow Management
- Outlet Protection

SLOPE STABILIZATION AND SOIL PROTECTION
Sloped and disturbed areas are most vulnerable to erosion. Stabilizing these areas prevents washouts and collapse.
We use methods that match the land and water conditions.
- Seeding
- Erosion Matting
- Soil Reinforcement
- Grade Stabilization
- Long Term Vegetation Planning
Proper slope stabilization protects both structures and surrounding land from gradual failure. We evaluate how water moves across the slope, where soil is likely to shift, and how nearby foundations or utilities may be affected.
By combining grading, reinforcement, and vegetation planning, we create stable surfaces that hold up through heavy rain and seasonal changes. This is especially important on Middle Tennessee properties where clay soil and elevation changes can quickly lead to erosion if not addressed correctly.
PERMANENT STABILIZATION SOLUTIONS
Temporary measures help control erosion during active work. Permanent stabilization protects the land long after the project is complete.
Permanent solutions are designed for durability and long term performance.
- Permanent Vegetation
- Regraded Slopes
- Controlled Drainage Paths
- Stabilized Outlets
- Final Soil Protection
If you are dealing with soil erosion, runoff damage, or unstable slopes, WM Tucker can help.

EROSION CONTROL FAQs
What causes erosion on residential property?
Erosion is commonly caused by uncontrolled runoff, poor grading, exposed soil, and steep slopes.
How do I know if erosion is a problem on my property?
Signs include washed out areas, exposed roots, sediment buildup, and soil movement after rainfall.
Can erosion be fixed permanently?
Yes. When water flow and soil stability are addressed correctly, erosion can be controlled long term.
What is erosion matting used for?
Erosion matting helps hold soil in place while vegetation becomes established.
When is silt fencing needed?
Silt fencing is used to control sediment movement in areas with disturbed soil or runoff.
Is erosion worse on sloped land?
Yes. Slopes increase water speed and soil movement if not stabilized properly.
Can erosion damage drainage systems?
Yes. Sediment buildup can clog drains and reduce system performance.
Should erosion control be done before or after grading?
Erosion control is often planned alongside grading to prevent issues during and after work.
Does vegetation help prevent erosion?
Yes. Vegetation helps hold soil together and slow water movement.
When should erosion control be addressed?
As soon as signs appear. Erosion problems typically worsen if left untreated.
