Pad and site grading
Cut and fill to the elevations on your plan, built for building pads and large commercial sites alike.
SITEWORK ACROSS NORTH GEORGIA
GRADING
& EXCAVATION.NORTH GEORGIA.
GPS grade control on every machine, so there's no guesswork in what we cut.
GPS GUIDED SITEWORK
PRECISE CUTS.
A CLEAR PLAN.
Every machine we run has GPS or 3D grade control built into the cab. We build a model off your site's control points and cut to it, instead of relying on visual estimates alone.
We take on real grading and excavation work, from basement digs to multi-acre commercial cut and fill. We're upfront that we don't chase small jobs like leveling a backyard, because it isn't worth mobilizing a crew and machine for.
A COMPLETE START
WHAT OUR EXCAVATION CONTRACTOR COVERS
Basement and foundation digs
Full basement excavation, dug and finished for the foundation crew behind us.
Driveway and road cuts
Mountain-grade cuts for new driveways and access roads, including deep cuts on steep terrain.
Drainage grading
Elevation and slope work that moves water where it needs to go, not where it collects.
TECHNOLOGY ON THE GROUND
PRECISION THAT
MOVES THE JOB FORWARD.
GPS grade control isn't common on jobs our size. Here's what that changes.
Fewer surveyor visits
You set a few control points, we build a GPS file off them, and the surveyor isn't needed again until final topo. That saves real money on surveying.
Precision when it matters most
On municipal or precision-critical sites, we hold tolerances within a couple millimeters instead of the usual plus-or-minus tenth of a foot.
A real example
In Blairsville, we cut a 30 to 40 foot driveway entrance into a mountainside, moving about 9,000 cubic yards of dirt with 7 to 8 machines on site, then paved it.
ONE CREW. A CLEAR SEQUENCE.
HOW A GRADING AND EXCAVATION JOB RUNS
STEP 01Walk the site
We look at the grade, the cut, and what the finished site needs to do with water.
STEP 02Build the GPS model
We set control points and build a 3D file for the equipment to cut to.
STEP 03Quote the work
A written scope covering the cut, fill, and what drives the price on your specific site.
STEP 04Cut and compact
Mass production cutting with the right equipment, compacted in lifts.
STEP 05Final grade and walk
We finish the grade to your elevations and walk it with you.

GRADING AND EXCAVATION QUESTIONS WE GET
Start with the property and what you want to do. We'll help you work through the details.
ASK ABOUT YOUR PROJECTClearing removes trees, brush and stumps. Grading reshapes the dirt itself, cutting and filling to set elevations and control drainage. Most projects need both, but they're priced and scheduled separately.
