Family-Owned Grading Contractor in Durham, NC
We are a small, family-owned grading business proudly serving Durham, NC and surrounding communities. Our company was started by my grandfather shortly after World War II, built on hard work, honesty, and doing the job right the first time. More than 35 years ago, I continued that tradition — and today, those same values guide every project we take on.
When you call, you speak directly to me — the owner. And I’m the one who shows up and operates the equipment on your job.
No salespeople. No middlemen. Just experienced, hands-on grading done right..
