The cost of a silt curtain itself primarily depends on the kind of curtain you’re using (Type I, II, or III), and the size of project you’re undertaking. Installation is much the same, with special considerations being made for your particular area’s environment, conditions, and local requirements. Depending on your project size, factors like waves, currents, and wind, and the type of curtain you’re using: you can expect to pay between $400 and $800 for a 50 foot section to be installed.
An initial inspection will be needed if you have a more complex solution in mind, with specific measurements allowing engineers to make considerations for wind and other conditions. As curtains are often sold in 50 foot sections, you can expect to pay either for hours worked or per linear foot installed (between 8 and 10 dollars for each).
