Many North Georgia subdivisions were built over "trash pits" where stumps, lumber, and debris were buried during construction. As that material rots, the ground above it sinks. Filling the hole with topsoil only hides it until it sinks again. We dig out the cause and rebuild the ground so it stays put.
Remediating buried trash pits and backyard sinkholes in North Georgia requires excavating decomposing material and rebuilding the subgrade with structural compaction lifts.
Complete excavation of unstable organic materials, uncompacted trash pit debris, and saturated soils down to solid native subgrade.
Diversion of groundwater veins entering the settlement zone using aggregate drainage channels wrapped in geotextile fabric.
Backfilling in 6-inch to 8-inch lifts using dense-graded structural fill, mechanically compacted to eliminate future subsurface settling.
No surprises: you know the plan, the price, and the timeline before we break ground.
We walk the property with you, measure the slope, check drainage, and talk through options.
You get a clear written estimate. Walls over 4 feet get engineered plans and permits, coordinated by us.
Our own crew and equipment handle excavation, drainage, and construction from start to cleanup.
Our work is backed by a 10-year warranty, so you are covered long after the crew leaves.
Straight answers about permits, drainage, and why old walls fail.
Tell us about your slope, wall, or drainage problem. We will visit the site, explain what it needs, and give you a clear estimate.
