As spring gives way to warmer temperatures and longer days, May marks a critical transition point in the landscape calendar—especially in the mountains of Western North Carolina. It’s the perfect time for property owners, HOAs, and absentee homeowners to take a close look at the condition of their landscapes and make strategic improvements. At B. H. Graning Landscapes, Inc., we’re here to help you prepare your property for a beautiful, functional, and well-protected summer season with two essential services: erosion control and hydroseeding.
Protect Your Property with Erosion Control
The Western North Carolina region is known for its mountainous terrain and variable weather, both of which can increase the risk of soil erosion. Heavy spring rains, sloped properties, and construction disturbances can lead to runoff that damages your landscape, undermines foundations, and causes sediment buildup in nearby waterways.
Our erosion control services are designed to address these challenges proactively. Whether you’re managing a residential property, vacation home, or an HOA community, our team can assess vulnerable areas and implement solutions tailored to your site. We offer:
- Slope stabilization
- Drainage and runoff management
- Retaining walls and terracing
- Vegetative ground cover installation
- Erosion control matting and geotextiles






Preventing erosion isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about protecting your investment and maintaining the integrity of your property. For HOA communities, it’s also about preserving common areas and ensuring safe, attractive surroundings for residents and guests.
Establish a Lush Lawn with Hydroseeding
If you’re aiming for a green, healthy lawn this summer, May is the ideal time for hydroseeding. This fast, efficient method of establishing grass involves spraying a mixture of seed, mulch, fertilizer, and water across the desired area. It’s an excellent option for covering large spaces, repairing bare patches, or starting fresh after grading or erosion repair.

Hydroseeding is particularly beneficial in the spring and early summer, as soil temperatures rise and consistent rainfall helps support germination. Within weeks, you’ll begin to see dense, uniform grass growth that enhances curb appeal and creates a welcoming environment for outdoor activities.
Our hydroseeding services offer:
- Faster and more uniform coverage than traditional seeding
- Improved moisture retention for better germination
- Erosion resistance as grass takes root
- Custom seed blends tailored to your property’s conditions
Whether you’re preparing your second home for the season or improving community spaces for your HOA, a professionally hydroseeded lawn sets the tone for a well-maintained landscape.
