Excavation and Grading for Hixson's Lake and Ridge Properties

Hixson sits along Chickamauga Lake, and a lot of the lots we clear here run from level yards near the water up to steeper ground toward Big Ridge and the hills off Hixson Pike. That mix means every job needs its own plan for brush removal, tree clearing, and grading before anything else gets built. Our crew works Hamilton County's clay soil and lake-adjacent terrain every week, so we know how to get a property ready to build, plant, or drain properly.

We've worked properties near Middle Creek and out toward the Sale Creek line, cutting back overgrown fence rows, clearing wooded lots for new construction, and grading building pads so water moves away from the house instead of pooling against the foundation. As an excavation contractor working this ground regularly, we know where the rock sits close to the surface and where the clay holds water longest.

Whether you're prepping a lot for a new driveway, opening up a backyard for landscaping, or clearing a commercial site off Highway 153, our equipment and crew size match the job. We don't send a crew that's too small for a wooded acre lot, and we don't overbuild a simple brush clearing job either.

Why Choose Us

Why Hixson Property Owners Call Evergreen

Local Familiarity With Hamilton County Ground

We've cleared and graded lots across the Chattanooga area long enough to know how Hixson's soil, slope, and lake proximity affect a project before we ever break ground.

Equipment Matched to the Job

Wooded acreage, tight residential lots, and small commercial sites all need different machines. We bring the right equipment instead of forcing one setup to fit every property.

Straightforward, Fair Pricing

We give property owners a clear estimate before work starts, without inflated add-ons once the job is underway. Professional work at a fair, affordable price is the standard we hold ourselves to.

Ground Conditions We Plan Around in Hixson

Hixson's terrain isn't uniform, and that shapes how we approach every land clearing and grading job in the area. Here's what we typically account for before equipment ever touches the ground:

  • Red clay soil that holds moisture and compacts hard once graded, especially on lots set back from the lake
  • Rocky subsoil on the ridges toward Big Ridge Road that can slow excavation and change equipment choices
  • Seasonal runoff near Chickamauga Lake coves that needs drainage planning worked into any grading or leveling
  • Mature hardwood growth on undeveloped lots that requires careful brush removal without damaging trees you want to keep
  • Sloped yards common on properties climbing away from Hixson Pike, where leveling has to account for erosion control
  • Older subdivisions with established landscaping where trenching and grading need to protect existing yards and driveways

Understanding these conditions before we start is what separates a rushed land clearing job from one that holds up. We factor grading, drainage, and soil type into every quote so property owners in Hixson know exactly what to expect before equipment arrives.

I needed several acres of over-seeding to be done. Daniel and Mason showed up when scheduled, And completed the job , with exceptional effort, and professionalism. The entire process from start, to finish, was what you expect, when hiring a company. I will be using their company for a few other upcoming projects I have.

We couldn't be happier with our project! Daniel is a master "rock-scaper"....we had a challenging bank and erosion issues, and needed better access. Now we have beautiful steps, a natural entry, and a firm bank. Evergreen was a great choice!

Daniel Hair, owner of Evergreen Excavation & Landscaping, along with his team, are the epitome of professionalism. They show up when they tell you they will be there, their work is exemplary and their pricing is reasonable. They have gone above and beyond with their work ethic. They answer even the most inane of questions and assist when asked. Daniel steps up to offer advice because he is an experienced professional and most people who are in my position have no idea what we don't know. His advice has been sound and his responses are thoughtful and helpful. If you have a need for an experienced professional to handle any tree removal, land clearing, excavation work or leveling a place for a house, please give Daniel a call! You will not regret it.
