Named for the family behind Walnut Grove Plantation — and growing fast along Highway 290.
Excavation decides whether everything above it stays level and dry. The dig, the trenches, the backfill — none of it shows in the finished photos, and all of it shows up three years later if it was done cheap. The classic hidden defect is loose backfill: it settles along every trench and foundation edge, cracking walks and sinking driveways. Our backfill goes in as thin, compacted lifts as standard practice — every trench, every time.
Every dig starts legally: SC811 locates filed and the three-business-day wait respected before a bucket touches ground. And because Upstate lots sit on dense red clay — sometimes rock — discovery conditions go in writing before work starts, so if the ground surprises us, the price doesn’t surprise you.
SC811 tickets filed, utilities marked, boundaries confirmed — before anything opens.
Pads, footings, and trenches cut to depth; topsoil stripped and stockpiled for your final landscape, never buried.
Thin layers, compacted each pass — the difference between a trench line you forget and one you re-level for years.
Spoils hauled or graded out, erosion controls set, site left ready for the next step.
Residential and small commercial site work: building pads, footings, stump and rock removal, trenching for water and drainage lines, and cutting driveways into sloped ground.
Usually, yes. Compact excavators fit through standard gates and work in tight residential spaces — it’s exactly what they’re built for. We confirm access on the site walk.
Moore is unincorporated, so Spartanburg County is the permitting authority. Disturbing an acre or more requires a county land-disturbance permit with an approved stormwater management plan, and even under an acre there's a county application form. No grading permit is issued without the stormwater plan approved, so it pays to settle the paperwork before scheduling equipment — we handle that conversation at the site walk.
