OAK ISLAND 🌳

This project means a little more to me than most.

Back in February of 2022, when I decided to take a chance and start We Can Dig It, Travis and Ashlee were the very first people to comment on my Facebook post announcing that I was going into business for myself.

I rode out to their property that same day to look at some work they wanted done. Not long after, I was out there clearing 2–3 acres for them. I didn’t own a machine. I didn’t have any employees. I had to rent a machine just to do the job. I was simply trying to get a business off the ground, willing to work hard, take a chance on myself, and trust God with the rest.

Fast forward 4½ years, and we’re back on that same property. Only this time, I’m pulling onto the job with multiple pieces of equipment that we own and a team of guys beside me to help get it done.

That part really puts things into perspective for me. Sometimes when you’re caught up in the everyday stress of running a business, it’s easy to forget how far you’ve actually come.

This time around, our crew cleared and burned an additional 5.5 acres and dug a beautiful ½-acre pond, leaving a big oak tree standing on its own island right in the middle. We used the excavated material to build a 100’ x 100’ house pad approximately 2.5’ in elevation, while also using material to raise and reshape other areas of the property, as well to fill in an old small pond on site.

The property originally had several large ridges that trapped water between them with nowhere to drain. We reworked those areas to help establish much better drainage and give the entire property a cleaner, more usable layout.

I can’t thank the Burdine family enough for once again putting their trust in the We Can Dig It team. From being one of our very first customers when this company was nothing more than an idea, a rented machine, no employees, and a whole lot of faith to trusting us again 4½ years later with our own fleet and a team behind us, this one means a lot.

This property turned out absolutely beautiful, and we’re proud to have played a part in bringing their vision to life. I can’t wait to see their new home sitting on that pad overlooking the ponds, the oak island, and all the beautiful trees we were able to leave throughout the property.

If you’re in the market for land clearing, ponds, house pads, drainage improvements, or a complete property transformation, give us a call and experience the We Can Dig It difference.

🇺🇸 **PATRIOT DAY — SEPTEMBER 11** 🇺🇸

This week we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the families, first responders, military members, and everyday Americans whose lives were forever changed.

We remember the courage of those who ran toward danger while others were running away.

We remember the strangers who became heroes.

We remember the unity that brought our country together in the days that followed.

And we remember that freedom, courage, sacrifice, and service should never be taken for granted.

We honor the nearly 3,000 lives lost and all those who continue to carry the weight of that day.

**We Remember. We Honor. We Will Never Forget.** 🇺🇸

Not too many things I love doing more than spreading some good base! 👊

Another nice transformation by the We Can Dig It team. We took this ol’ grassy field and turned it into a beautiful, usable parking lot.

The existing grass had grown higher than the asphalt, preventing the area from draining properly. We cut out the grass and excess dirt to prep the subgrade for a 150’ x 90’ parking area.

From there, we:

• Graded and compacted the subgrade
• Installed heavy-duty 600X geotextile fabric
• Hauled in, spread, graded, and fully processed right at 500 tons of limestone base with water and a smooth drum roller to achieve a solid, tight finished surface
• Cut down the field behind the new parking area to properly tie everything together and provide positive drainage
• Spread and graded all excavated dirt back on the property, no haul-off needed

Everything tied together great, drains the way it should, and turned out absolutely gorgeous.

A big thank you to Specialty Insulation Solutions for trusting We Can Dig It with your project and allowing us the opportunity to earn your business. We truly appreciate it!

Also, a big thank you to Forrest Anderson with Ace Trucking for taking care of us on the rock and helping keep the material rolling. We appreciate you!

Whether you need a laydown yard, parking lot, well site, building pad, access road, or complete site work, give We Can Dig It – Earthwork Solutions a call. We’d sure love the opportunity to help with your next project.

Bates Hill is COMPLETE!

This one was a heck of a transformation, and we couldn’t be more proud of how it turned out.

We built a 100’ x 70’ house pad to engineered elevation, 2.5’ above the county road. From the existing ground to finished elevation, we raised the pad anywhere from 6’ at the highest point to over 8’ at the lowest, moving and placing over 7,000 cubic yards of material all packed in 8” lifts the correct way. The entire pad was finished with long, gradual slopes to make it safe and easy to maintain and mow.

We also dug a beautiful pond over an acre in size, shaping it with natural curves that hug the existing tree line. We made sure to leave plenty of room around it for riding SxS’s and enough room for a tractor to comfortably mow and maintain the property.

This was already a beautiful piece of property, but seeing the new pond and house pad completely changed it. We can’t wait to see a new home sitting on top of that pad and the pond full of water!

A huge thank you to the Bates family for trusting We Can Dig It – Earthwork Solutions with this project and giving us the opportunity to bring their vision to life.

And I’m extremely proud of our crew on this one. A lot of dirt was moved and a lot of hours went into getting every detail right.

Running a business means taking pride in your work, standing behind what you do, and sometimes having to address situations you wish you never had to.

Without attacking anyone’s character I will give a rundown of what has happened to this point. Recently, we completed a project that we were extremely proud of. The property turned out beautiful, and when we left, the work was completed correctly, compacted properly, and finished to the standard we expect on every job. We cut no corners and take pictures throughout the project showing the steps and ensuring it’s installed the correct way.

After the project was completed, we were informed that four-wheelers had been trespassing on the property. Shortly afterward, the area received approximately 6 inches of rain over a 2–3 day period.

We were then contacted and told there was an issue with an area we had constructed. Rather than making assumptions or ignoring the concern, I personally drove to the property with my crew while it was pouring rain to see the situation for myself.

We drove the rock driveway in 2-wheel drive without an issue. Once we reached the affected area, however, there was clear evidence that four-wheelers had been doing donuts and had disturbed the limestone, crushed concrete base, and even the geotextile fabric underneath. After that damage occurred and the property received several inches of heavy rainfall, that disturbed area experienced a failure. Rock was rutted up and the ruts holding water, fabric and dirt pumped up through the rock due to it being tore up and saturated.

I believe strongly in standing behind our work. Anyone who knows us, has worked with us, or has hired us knows the amount of pride we put into every project. We routinely go beyond what is expected because my name and my company’s name are attached to everything we build.

But standing behind your work does not mean accepting responsibility for damage that occurs after a project is completed because of trespassing, misuse, or circumstances outside of our control.

As a small business owner, situations like this are frustrating because we work extremely hard to build a reputation one project and one customer at a time. I will always listen to a legitimate concern. I will always go look at an issue. And if something is truly the result of our workmanship, we will make it right.

But I will also stand up for my company, my employees, and the quality of work we provide when the facts show otherwise.

We know the work we do. We know the standards we hold ourselves to. And we’re extremely thankful for the customers, friends, and community who know our character and continue to trust and support us.

We will continue doing what we’ve always done, work hard, do things the right way, take pride in what we build, and let our work speak for itself.

God bless!
