Full-Service Site Development Capabilities for Commercial Projects in North Alabama
Garrett Contracting self-performs every core service listed below, with no subcontracting of earthwork. Our crews and equipment fleet handle your project from initial clearing through final grade.
Commercial Excavation
We handle deep excavation, foundation prep, and large-scale cut operations for commercial and industrial projects. Our excavation crews work across a range of site conditions, from straightforward flat lots to complex multi-elevation commercial developments.
Site Clearing and Demolition
We clear vegetation, remove existing structures, and prepare raw land for commercial construction. Our crews handle full-site clearing operations at scale, leaving a clean, ready-to-grade surface for the next phase of your project.
Mass Grading and Earthwork
We execute cut and fill operations and earthwork balancing for commercial-scale sites, preparing building pads to the specified tolerances. Our equipment fleet handles large earthwork volumes without relying on outside contractors.
Aggregate Supply and Material Hauling
Garrett Contracting supplies aggregate on demand and handles bulk material transport across North Alabama. In-house supply means your project isn't waiting on third-party delivery schedules to stay on track.
Underground Utilities Installation
We install storm drainage, sanitary sewer, water lines, and utility trenching for commercial sites throughout North Alabama. All utility work is self-performed by our crew, coordinated with your civil engineer's plans from the start.
Pre-Construction Planning Services
We engage early in the project cycle, providing site feasibility review, quantity takeoffs, and schedule coordination before construction begins. Early contractor involvement helps eliminate surprises when the equipment hits the ground.
