Most local councils require any worksite with disturbed ground to have a silt fence in place. A silt fence, or sediment fence, is an affordable, temporary sediment control barrier used on building and construction worksites. Silt fencing prevents sediment from washing into nearby waterways and neighbouring sites.
Failure to meet council's requirement before construction can lead to on-the-spot fines of up to $9000. Don't get caught out-at Vidgil Silt Fencing, we install silt fencing that meets environmental standards and council regulations. Get professional sediment and erosion control for your construction project, when and where you need it.

Did you know that most councils require any worksite where there is soil disturbance to have a sediment fence in place? A silt fence, or sediment fence, is a temporary control device used to prevent sediment run-off into nearby waterways. Whether you're an owner builder, commercial builder or construction company, you can be penalised up to $9000 for not adequately protecting your site.
As a developer or builder, you have a legal obligation to take all reasonable care to prevent soil erosion and sediment loss from construction sites. Soil erosion from construction sites causes major environmental problems in surrounding waterways. Sediment washed into waterways impacts the health of aquatic wildlife and blocks stormwater drains, increasing the risk of flood.
Silt curtains are used in waterways to prevent pollution of the waterway by disturbed sediment. Vidgil Silt Fencing can provide a customised floating silt curtain to meet your needs. Our floating silt curtains are manufactured to meet your requirements and can be delivered to your site ready to deploy.
