Established lots

Most homes are on established lots, so our work is drainage, pools, additions and replacing old lines.

Valley clay

Soils are generally clay over limestone. Clay holds water and needs careful compaction. We use thin lifts for any backfill.

Schools

McConnell Elementary and Loftis Middle are here. We schedule hauling around school hours.

Sinks and depressions

Valley soils like Dewey can have sinks and depressions. Drainage from pools, patios and roofs is routed away from any low spot.

Pools and patios

Many Lakesite homeowners add pools and patios. We dig, haul spoil and prep the base for the installer.

Rain

The area gets about 55 inches of precipitation a year by Chattanooga's normals. Clay soils stay wet after storms, so we schedule grading for dry spells.

Small city, close neighbors

With most homes on established lots, we protect lawns and driveways with mats and keep the street clean.

Septic and sewer

Some homes are on septic. We locate tanks and lines before moving equipment.

What to expect on a Lakesite job

We walk the lot with you, mark where equipment will travel, request utility locates and confirm whether the home is on sewer or septic. Most drainage or pool digs are finished in one to three days, with topsoil put back and seeded at the end.
