A Look at Our Excavation, Drainage, and Landscaping Projects

Our photo gallery gives you a firsthand look at the kind of craftsmanship you can expect when Evergreen Excavation & Landscaping takes on your property. We've spent years working the ridges, valleys, and clay-heavy soil that make up this part of Tennessee, from the red clay hillsides above the Ocoee River to gravel driveways in Cleveland that needed a full repair. Every job pictured here started with a site visit, a plan for how water and equipment would move across the land, and a crew that treats your property the way we'd treat our own. From hillside lots near Sand Mountain to level yards along the Hiwassee River, no two properties are exactly the same, which is why every estimate starts with an in-person look at your land.

Browse the categories below to see examples of finished work, from freshly graded lots to completed retaining walls and landscape lighting installations. Each set of photos shows the before-and-after difference that comes from proper grading, sound drainage planning, and materials installed the right way the first time. You'll notice the same attention to detail in every shot, whether it's a driveway base packed and crowned correctly or a french drain tied into daylight at the edge of a slope.

A Look at Our Excavation, Drainage, and Landscaping Projects

What you'll see in our gallery

Driveway installation and repair gravel driveway installation, grading, and resurfacing on sloped and rural properties throughout Bradley and Polk County.

We reshape washed-out driveways, add proper base material, and grade for drainage so gravel stays put through heavy rain. You'll also see driveways in Chattanooga and Athens where we corrected drainage problems that had been washing out gravel for years.

Drainage and erosion control french drain installation, drainage swales, culvert work, and yard drainage solutions for wet or sloped yards.

Photos here show how a properly installed french drain redirects water away from foundations, gardens, and low-lying areas that used to flood. Some of these projects involved tying a new french drain into an existing culvert system, while others called for a full drainage swale cut across a backyard.

Retaining wall installation structural and decorative walls built to hold back hillside soil and prevent erosion on the sloped lots common throughout this part of Tennessee.

Some walls double as landscape features, framing beds and walkways while doing the structural work of holding a hillside in place. We've built retaining walls out of natural stone, block, and timber, matched to whatever look fits the property and the budget.

Landscaping and lighting lawn seeding, irrigation installation, and landscape lighting installation that finishes off a property.

These photos capture everything from a freshly seeded lawn to walkway lighting that highlights a finished retaining wall or garden bed after dark. Irrigation photos show zoned systems designed to keep new sod and flower beds healthy through the hot Tennessee summers.

Site preparation and grading as a site preparation contractor, we handle land clearing, lot clearing, and grading work ahead of new construction or driveway projects.

You'll see cleared lots ready for a builder, graded pads for outbuildings, and driveways shaped and compacted before gravel goes down. This is often the first step on a new build, and getting it right sets up every trade that follows.

Material delivery gravel delivery and spreading, mulch delivery, topsoil delivery, and rock delivery completed on-site for homeowners and property owners.

Whether it's a full load of gravel spread across a new driveway or mulch delivered and placed around fresh landscaping, these photos show the finished result. We deliver and spread these materials ourselves, so what you see in these photos is exactly what gets placed on your property.

Whether you're picturing a new gravel driveway, a drainage fix for a soggy backyard, or a full landscaping refresh, these photos show the kind of results our team delivers throughout Ocoee, Cleveland, Chattanooga, and the surrounding communities. Take a look, then reach out and tell us what you're picturing for your own property. We update this gallery as new projects wrap up, so check back if you're still deciding what's possible for your own yard.
