"We were contacted first by NC Landscape and Waterproof. They were very thoughtful and understanding of our project and offered to do more than we originally planned but their explanation made complete sense and we are glad we had them do our full planting job instead of just the excavation. We will certainly be working with them again!"

"I NEVER leave reviews, BUT this one deserves a review. I called Bolton Grading & Clearing to do an estimate on clearing some land for me. They were out that afternoon giving me an estimate. Started that week and had it done within a week. Very affordable pricing. I explained what I wanted and DJ let me know what he thought. I let him go with it, and it turned out great. I had to remember he does this for a living not me. "

"Ron and Brian were great. I needed an earth moving company ASAP and Ron was a great communicator and helped me with leveling for a playground and filling in a large hole I dug out with an excavator. I got overzealous and created a mess and Ron and his crew were able to not only fix my problem, but do it for a fair rate and a quick turnaround time. They listened to my needs and provided a great solution to my problem. I would recommend ATLAS to anyone and am really pleased with the work."

"We hired them to dismantle an existing walkway beside and behind the house and create a new one. WOW! It’s so beautiful and structurally sound. These guys are so easy to work with. The owner Dave, was able to make our somewhat hazy dreams a reality. Site manager Terry is knowledgeable and friendly. The staff are considerate of our property and friendly. We couldn’t be more pleased."

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Raleigh, NC

You can excavate in winter, but frozen soil slows down the process and increases labor costs. Many grading companies offer discounted rates during their off-season, so ask for a winter quote and weigh the savings against a longer timeline. A brief conversation with a local professional will help determine whether cold-weather excavation is suitable for your site.

Foundation digs can be completed in as little as three days or take up to three weeks. Soil density, access, weather, and hidden obstacles all play a role, so every timeline is a bit different. Have your contractor walk the site and flag any potential issues early—clear expectations help keep both the schedule and budget on track.

You must always call 811 before excavating. Dial 811 a few days in advance so that utility crews can mark underground lines and ensure the area is safe for digging. Hitting a buried cable or gas pipe can be both dangerous and expensive, and many municipalities will not issue permits unless the site is flagged correctly.

To remove soil during an excavation project, your crew will load the spoil into dump trucks with a backhoe or excavator, haul it to a disposal site, and return for the next load. Efficient hauling keeps the work zone clear and the project moving. Depending on the site and volume of osil, multiple trucks may rotate to maintain a steady flow.
