About Erosion Defence
Erosion Defence, LLC was founded by Skip, Wes and Ryan Richter, a family who spent most of their lives in construction and saw a growing need for erosion and sediment control across the Carolinas. They've been doing this work since 2014.
Their crew leaders are NCDOT certified in erosion control installation. The team holds weekly safety meetings and hands-on "how-to" workshops where crews review the techniques they use in the field and learn new methods.
From their home base in the Charlotte area, Erosion Defence serves most of North and South Carolina.
Why Snappy recommends them
They're a local, family-run crew that handles a part of the job site we don't. If a Snappy project ever needed silt fence or seeding, Erosion Defence is who we'd call.
