Our goal is to bring this mentality to our business by producing the highest quality work to our clients for the best price possible.

Just as we have been blessed with the opportunity to operate this business, we aim to provide opportunities to our community.

"Robbie Moody, owner and operator of Cold Mountain Grading, is an exceptional young man. He is polite, professional, responsible, reliable and an outstanding problem-solver. His communication skills were excellent, and from his first visit, Robbie was able to offer solutions that others did not mention. He put in a new drain from the gutter, installed a new French drain along the side of the building that was too low, spread topsoil to raise about .5 of my yard, planted seed and covered with straw. Under my deck he built a retaining wall, and spread crushed stone to level. The job was done perfectly, and in only three days. I would definitely hire and recommend Robbie in the future."

"After purchasing my first home, I realized quickly that things were less than perfect. 3 months in, we were finding water intrusion in our crawl space. I had multiple companies come to inspect what was going on. I didn’t feel confident in their solutions, there was more to our situation. After feeling helpless, I read about David Gibson construction. Their testimonies really struck my interest. A local expert, that won’t take a job unless it’s done right, and always found the root of the issue. David came over, surveyed the entire property, inspected the crawl space / foundation, did soil samples, and sent over an entire report on what he believed was going on. We immediately hired him. Davis addressed the root cause and any additional repairs he found along the way. He and his crew were extremely professional, timely, and easy to work with. With highest regard, I strongly recommend David Gibson Construction. I can confidently say all of our issues are now in the past. "

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.
