"Outstanding driveway engineering on tough mountain terrain We hired Gibson's Grading and Construction to a new gravel driveway on our property in Mars Hill, and the results exceeded our expectations. Our site is steep, and with the heavy seasonal rainfall and real flood-management challenges — this wasn't a simple job. What stood out was their genuine expertise in grading and drainage. They clearly understood how water moves through mountain terrain and designed the driveway with proper crown, cross-slope, and drainage features to handle runoff instead of fighting it. Rather than a generic gravel spread, this was thoughtfully engineered for our specific conditions. The crew was professional, communicative, and clearly experienced with the unique demands of building in the mountains. The finished driveway is solid, well-draining, and already holding up beautifully through heavy rain."

"Working with Brent and Keith on our A-frame build was a great experience overall. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and clearly take a lot of pride in their work. The craftsmanship really shows—our home is not only beautiful, but also feels incredibly solid and built to last. The quality of materials and attention to detail exceeded our expectations. The only downside was that the project took a couple of months longer than originally predicted. That said, it was absolutely worth the wait. The end result speaks for itself, and we’d much rather have things done right than rushed. We’re extremely happy with our A-frame and grateful to Brent and Keith for bringing it to life."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Anytime we had more than 3 inches of heavy rain, it washed the gravel away in multiple places and left deep ruts in our approx. 90 feet long relatively steep driveway. Zack Raymond (owner of ZR Landscaping & Grading) and his crew graded and resurfaced the entire drive on August 22-23. I decided to wait with a review until after another heavy downpour. As a result of hurricane Michael, we measured a total of 4.1/4" of precipitation and the driveway is still in perfect condition. Bottom line: "This company clearly did a great job, with which I am totally satisfied!""

"We had a great experience with Kevin and would highly recommend him and use him again! We have a very steep .3 mile driveway and he graded it, installed several new culverts for better water drainage, brought in lots of new gravel and filled in some deep holes in the driveway. It looks great and is functioning very well!"

"I hired Capps Excavation to cut in a new driveway and he did an amazing job. Took down a few big trees that were in the way and that didn't phase them at all. It was on a pretty step slope and they handled it like it was nothing. I wouldn't think twice about hiring them again or recommending them to someone for any excavation, landscaping or tree work!"

Land Clearing Services questions, answered by experts

You can’t build on undeveloped land without preparing it for construction, which involves running utilities to the site or accounting for private utilities like wells and septic systems and grading and compacting the soil for safe construction. Once you prepare the land, you can build on it as long as the project abides by local zoning regulations.

A boundary survey measures the boundary lines of the property, only the length of each property line and their locations. A land survey includes a more in-depth measurement of the property, including the heights and depths of the terrain measured by a topographic survey. A boundary survey is typically the most cost-effective method for marking and measuring property lines.

Surveys completed by licensed surveyors can be recorded with a local surveying records office, and in most cases, they will be. Filing survey reports categorize them as legal documents, and they can be used whenever legal documentation of your property’s boundaries is needed. While you’re not required to file survey documents, it’s a good idea to do so. 

Yes, new home construction will always require building permits, no matter where you live. In most cases, you’ll need a general construction permit, along with plumbing and electrical permits for the utility lines in your home. Depending on where you live, you’ll likely find that you also need permits for things like connection to a sewage system or installing exterior components, like decks, driveways, patios, and curb cutouts. Leave navigating the permits required for new home construction to a professional to ensure your home is built legally and safely.

Measure from zero on a measuring tape by placing the metal hook right up against the edge of what you need to measure. You can also latch the hook onto an open edge—of, say, a table—to accurately measure as well. If you begin at the 1-inch mark, you'll need to subtract an inch from your total.
