Land clearing and grading for Simpsonville — from Heritage Park to the West Georgia Road crossroads.
Simpsonville runs from the clock tower and Heritage Park downtown to the growth corridors — Fairview Road, Harrison Bridge Road, and the West Georgia Road and Fork Shoals Road crossroads, where new subdivisions replaced farmland. We work both ends: builder-graded lots in the new neighborhoods and older acreage out toward Neely Ferry Road that needs clearing or reclaiming. The Cecil red clay here drains slowly after grading and stays soggy for days if the slope is wrong. Brian walks every site himself, puts the price in writing, and treats your land like it is ours.
For most single-lot jobs under an acre, no separate grading permit is needed. Simpsonville falls under Greenville County's stormwater program, and county guidance says an individual lot outside a permitted subdivision disturbing between 5,000 square feet and one acre can generally use the building permit in place of a separate grading permit. Erosion-control measures still have to be installed and maintained either way, and we confirm the specifics with Greenville County Land Development before work starts.
It is the clay, and grading can fix it. The Cecil-series subsoil here runs roughly 45 to 60 percent clay — it compacts under construction traffic, drains poorly after careless grading, and holds water at the surface. Drainage is a documented problem in town: City Council created a stormwater fund after resident flooding complaints, and Durbin Creek and Rocky Creek are the city's named trouble spots. Regrading for positive fall and adding French drains moves water away from your house instead of letting it sit.
Yes. From a single overgrown backyard lot to full acreage, if it’s a fit for our equipment we’ll take it — and if it isn’t, we’ll tell you on the walk and point you the right direction.
