Hydrilla removal in Tarrytown
Tarrytown's waterfront sits on the lower end of Lake Austin, not far from Red Bud Isle and Tom Miller Dam. It's calm, shallow-edged water that hydrilla loves, and some of the most heavily used swim and paddle water on the lake.

What we see around Tarrytown.
Close-in, heavily used water
Lower Lake Austin sees a lot of paddleboards, kayaks and swimmers. A clear launch and swim zone off your dock makes a big difference day to day.
Shallow shoreline shelves
Gently sloping bottoms near the shore warm up early in the season, which is exactly where hydrilla tends to show up first.
Sand finish favorite
For Tarrytown swim areas and beach entries, a barrier with the sand finish gives you a soft, clean floor right off the seawall.
Clear it once. Keep it clear.
We clear the hydrilla in your zone, haul the fragments away, and cover the lake floor with a barrier so it can't grow back. Add the sand finish for a soft swim-area floor.
