trim mat installation
(OP)
I am required to install trim mat on a steep slope to protect it from erosion and allow plant growth. The specs describe installing the mat paralell to the slope. My contractor--who is very experienced--says it makes more sense to install it perpendicular to the slope, like shingles on a roof. I talked to another of my regular contractors who is also very experienced, and he agrees with the first contractor--perpendicular to the slope from the bottom up like shingles. Does anyone have an opinion on this?

The orientation of the mats will depend on the specifics of your layout. You may be areas with broad sheet flow and areas with concentrated flow.
