Excavation & Land Clearing in Chattanooga, TN
Chattanooga excavation and site prep from just up the mountain.
Who is an excavation contractor in Chattanooga, TN?
MC Excavation handles excavation, grading, site prep, utility trenching and land clearing in Chattanooga, TN. We work for homeowners, builders, general contractors and commercial customers across the city's ridges and valleys. We are based on Signal Mountain, directly above town, and we carry insurance.
From our home base
Chattanooga sits at the foot of Walden's Ridge, and Signal Mountain Road climbs from the city straight up to our home base. Both are in our service area.
Jobs that suit Chattanooga ground
Many Chattanooga yards sit on a slope or rise in this ridge-and-valley country. We look at that uneven ground when planning the work, and the jobs below reflect those conditions.
Excavation and grading
On a sloped city lot, we dig out and grade the ground to a set level so a patio, pad or addition has a flat start.
Retaining walls
Where a yard falls away toward the street or a neighbor, a block or rock wall can hold the slope back.
Gravel driveways
For a drive that climbs or dips, we grade the route, lay a base, then spread gravel on top.
What we do in Chattanooga
We offer all of these services for Chattanooga properties, whether your lot is on a hillside, along a ridge or down in a valley.
About the ground in Chattanooga
Chattanooga is where the Ridge-and-Valley Appalachians meet the Cumberland Plateau. The Tennessee River splits the city from Walden's Ridge, and long ridges break up the rest: Missionary Ridge runs through it east of downtown, and Stringer's Ridge rises above the river on the north side. That ridge is a good picture of what wooded city ground can look like here, with rolling hills, short steep pitches and mature oak and hickory. Slope and big hardwoods are among the first things we look at when we walk a lot in town.
