Site Work in Travelers Rest, Priced After a Walk

Travelers Rest went from a highway stop to one of South Carolina's best-known trail towns, and the growth came with it: infill like Pinestone off US 25 North, in-town lots off Main Street, and wooded acreage running north toward Highway 11, Marietta, Slater, and Tigerville. We handle both the new-lot prep in town and the raw mountain land beyond. Foothill grades run steeper than most of Greenville County, and bare red clay washes fast in a hard rain. Brian walks the slope with you before anything gets priced.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beyond 5 Stars! ​If you have a complex land, grading, or drainage issue, look no further than Brian at Custom Cut Land Works. ​We hired Brian to rework our ~950-foot gravel driveway and clear an acre in our backyard, and the level of service we received was nothing short of incredible. ​Here is why Brian stands out above the rest: ​Unmatched Dedication: Before we even started the driveway project, Brian spent over a year coming by on days with torrential downpours just to observe how water traveled down our property. He literally rushed over during heavy rainstorms to map out a foolproof plan from the top of the road all the way past our house to prevent any chance of flooding. ​True Expertise: Out of 5 different companies that gave us quotes, nobody else took the time to address the root drainage issues caused by the driveway’s pitch. Brian was the only one who truly understood the problem and designed a custom solution. ​Flawless Execution: He regraded the driveway, brought in crusher run, and solved every single drainage issue we had. It works amazingly well, and we have total peace of mind now. ​Long-Term Planning: He cleared an acre in our backyard this summer with a solid game plan for fall seeding. Next, he’s coming back to handle the crabgrass, apply a lime treatment to balance the soil pH, lay a sand/dirt mix, power-rake, and seed the entire property at once. ​We are so happy and grateful we chose Custom Cut Land Works. Brian’s attention to detail, patience, and genuine care for doing the job right are impossible to find anywhere else. ​If you need gravel driveway work, drainage solutions, or land clearing in the Fountain Inn, SC area, call Brian. You will be so glad you did!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to clear acreage near Travelers Rest?

On unincorporated Greenville County land, yes, once you disturb an acre or more. That triggers a county Land Disturbance permit plus a Notice of Intent to the state under the Construction General Permit, and jobs at that size also need a tree planting and protection plan under the county tree ordinance. Smaller jobs still have to follow the county's residential erosion and sediment-control standards, so stabilization is part of the work at any size.

Why does my gravel driveway keep washing out on these grades?

Because on foothill slopes, water wins unless the driveway is built for it. Heavy Upstate rain on steep grades over shifting red clay takes out under-built drives fast. The lasting fix is a compacted aggregate base, a crown, ditching, and diversion that gets water off the surface. Re-graveling every year treats the symptom; rebuilding the base and drainage treats the cause.

Do you take on small residential jobs in Travelers Rest?

Yes. From a single overgrown backyard lot to full acreage, if it’s a fit for our equipment we’ll take it. If it isn’t, we’ll tell you on the walk and point you the right direction.
