B&B Tree Removal and Grading is committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"Highly Recommend B&B! We had a top notch experience with Brett Bridges and were thoroughly impressed with his work. He is honest, hardworking, and reasonably priced. We had a time sensitive situation (a large tree was down on our barn and we needed to remove it quickly in order to prevent further damage). Brett was super responsive and helpful in putting an estimate together and following through quickly. The tree was stuck in the roof, but Brett and his crew came in and removed it using heavy equipment, climbing gear, and saws, and left the area clean and cleared. Watching him work, it was clearly evident that he's an expert at what he does--the work was completed efficiently and just as we discussed. He is a man of his word and lives out his values, which is refreshing in today's world. He even came back out later with a bigger tarp just because he said he would (& I know it wasn't convenient for him). We would definitely have him work for us again in a heartbeat!"

"David is hands down the best contractor I've ever worked with! He has a background in engineering and it shows. My home's driveway was severely damaged by Helene (we live up in the mountains near Swannanoa, NC) and we had a mass of earth precariously perched above our home. I was very nervous it could continue sliding into our home. In addition to this, where our road had collapsed, it had become dangerous to pass with a car. David and his team were able to assess the damage and develop a thorough, well-explained plan for repairing this road damage. We were able to build a retaining wall and reinforce the bank adjacent to our road. He even re-graveled our driveway at no additional cost because his trucks were unable to access our property due to sandy roads. The work was professional and of very high quality. While he was working on the road repairs I also had him check our foundation to see if things had shifted during the hurricane. David was able to identify some bowing/cracking and suggested a repair with steel bracing. We agreed to those repairs and while working on this he noticed our decking bolts had come undone. David then went around both our main home and an ADU to check the bolts/nuts were tightened down on all exterior structures. This was going beyond and above by a wide margin and showed how much David cares about doing the right thing and helping people above all else. I cannot recommend David enough both professionally and personally. He's a wonderful human who does excellent work and I will absolutely work with him again in the future! -Andrew"

Specializing in decks and remodeling we can install appliances,doors,tubs also offer excavator warm and tree trimming and removal

"It went great! He showed up the day he said he would, completed his work in a timely manner, and did a great job. He is a very down to earth guy, easy to talk to, and work with. His prices were fair. He completed everything I asked, and did it the way I wanted, except one or two small things he changed, because the way I had envisioned it was not feasible because of longevity of the project. His changes meant I would be able to enjoy it for years to come. Also, some things I didn't quite know how I wanted done, so we sat down and I gave him a vague idea of what I wanted and he made suggestions until we came up with something I liked. Overall, I had a very positive experience and will be using him again anytime I need a service he offers."

Excavation major grading or reslopings FAQs

The excavation process requires four to eight weeks after preparations are complete. This timeline may extend considerably if contractors encounter unexpected challenges such as rocky soil formations, concealed utility lines, or foundation issues requiring remediation. Additional time requirements for drainage installation, waterproofing, and utility connections should also factor into your planning schedule. Consulting with experienced local contractors provides the most accurate timeline projections.

Creating a basement in high water table conditions remains possible but requires specialized moisture management systems. Contractors implement comprehensive waterproofing, robust drainage networks, and appropriate sump pump systems to manage groundwater infiltration. These enhanced moisture protection measures increase project costs but remain essential for long-term functionality. Professional evaluation of specific site conditions determines the most appropriate moisture management approach.

Several indicators suggest potential challenges for basement excavation, including consistently damp soil conditions, visible foundation deterioration, or significant settlement in existing structures. Properties with unstable soil compositions or bedrock near the surface may present prohibitive excavation costs. Professional structural assessment identifies specific challenges and potential mitigation strategies before committing to major excavation projects.

The value enhancement from basement additions varies considerably based on local market preferences, finish quality, and functional utility. Well-executed basement spaces with proper egress, comfortable ceiling heights, and quality finishes provide the strongest return on investment. Consulting with local real estate professionals provides insight into specific value expectations for your market area and property type.

Most jurisdictions require comprehensive building permits for basement excavation projects due to their structural implications. These include general construction permits plus specific approvals for structural modifications, electrical installations, plumbing systems, and mechanical equipment. Many municipalities also require engineer-stamped plans certifying structural integrity. Working without proper permits risks substantial penalties and potentially costly remediation requirements.
