Silt Sock is easy to use and complies with the requirements on most job sites.  Keep in mind that silt fence is required to be trenched at least 6” deep and maintained to that water will not undercut the fabric.  On sites where there is a lot of rock, tree roots, underground utilities or conditions are muddy and don’t allow adequate trenching equipment you might want to consider using Silt Sock.  Most of our contractors like Silt Sock’s versatility, no trenching required (in most situations) and best of all – speed of installation, flexibility, very low maintenance.
