Reseeding Burn Areas in Southern California

Property that has been ravaged by wildfire or suffered the effects of prolonged drought and exposure to the sun's scorching rays will need help. The chances of this land suffering serious erosion is more prevalent than an area that is forested or covered with grass and plants.

For reseeding burn areas in Southern California, hydroseeding is the ultimate choice. It’s a very effective way to quickly and evenly spread new seeds across a parcel of land. The slurry mixture in hydroseeding contains water, seeds, a phosphorus agent to accelerate growth, and a mulch to help retain the seeds in the soil. This mixture encourages growth and dense soil coverage to bring new life back into scorched land.

Reseeding burn areas brings back the natural beauty and can add variety to the soil with different seeds and even wildflowers. Quickly restoring a piece of property minimizes the risk of it washing away and helps to return a healthy habitat for wildlife as well.

Our Quality Hydroseeding & Restoration team has completed a wide range of commercial reseeding projects throughout the region. If you have questions about the process and whether it’s an alternative you should consider, we’re happy to provide details so you can make an informed decision.
