Land Grading for New Construction

Land Clearing Before Grading


Many Taylorsville-area properties require clearing before grading can begin. Trees, stumps, brush, and overgrown vegetation can prevent equipment from properly accessing and shaping the land.


Alexander Excavating provides:


  • Tree removal
  • Hazardous tree removal
  • Stump removal
  • Brush clearing and brush hogging
  • Land clearing
  • Excavation
  • Grading
  • Material hauling


The company can clear properties ranging from approximately ½ acre to 10 acres for homes or buildings, depending on project requirements.

Excavation & Grading From One Local Contractor


Grading and excavation frequently go hand in hand. Excavation involves removing or moving soil and other materials, while grading shapes the property into the appropriate elevations, slopes, and contours.


Alexander Excavating provides both services, along with building site preparation, road grading, land clearing, demolition, pond installation, concrete removal, and material hauling.


This means you don't necessarily have to coordinate separate contractors for every phase of your property project.


  • Local Experience: Alexander Excavating is a locally owned and operated excavation company based in Taylorsville, with more than five years of hands-on experience highlighted on its Statesville service page.
  • One-Stop Site Preparation: Instead of coordinating multiple companies for clearing, excavation, grading, demolition, and hauling, Alexander Excavating can handle several stages of the project under one contractor.
  • Direct Communication: The company works directly with customers to understand their goals, discuss the property, and develop an appropriate approach for the project.
  • Free Estimates: Alexander Excavating provides free estimates so you can discuss your property and project plans before work begins.
