The mill town Pacific Mills built is growing again. We handle the dirt work.
Lyman is building again: new subdivision lots going in around Pacific Place and along the US 29 corridor, right next to hundred-year-old mill-village yards off Groce Road and rural acreage on the town's edges. From SC 292 out to Lake Lyman and the Middle Tyger River, each kind of property needs different land work. The red Cecil clay here drains fine until it's compacted, then it ponds and ruts. We're owner-run. Brian walks the land before he quotes it, whether it's a new Pacific Place lot or a hundred-year-old mill yard.
Heavy brush to whole wooded lots. Cleared, hauled, and left build-ready.

Yes. Even projects disturbing less than an acre require a Spartanburg County land-disturbance permit application. Clearing, grading, grubbing, excavating, and filling all count as land disturbance under the county's rules, and jobs disturbing one to two acres or more step up into SC DES stormwater permitting. We walk you through what your job needs before any dirt moves.
The red Cecil clay is the usual culprit. Gravel sinks into wet clay and washes on slopes. The subsoil here runs 40 to 60 percent clay. It drains fine undisturbed but seals up once compacted, so water sits or runs where you don't want it. A geotextile base, a proper crown, and drainage relief are what keep a driveway on this ground.
Yes. Lyman is part of our regular service area in Spartanburg County. We work across seven counties in the Upstate and the Lakelands, and every job starts with a free site walk on your property.
