Cut & Fill Services in Jefferson, Hamblen, & Grainger Counties

What does “cut and fill” mean? It’s a simple idea: we take dirt from the high spots on your property (the “cut”) and move it to the low spots (the “fill”). By doing this, we can make a perfectly level area or create a gentle slope for proper drainage. This process is one of the most important steps in preparing land for any kind of construction.

At Jefferson Land Clearing & Excavation, we are experts in moving earth. We use heavy machinery like bulldozers, excavators, and graders with precision to get the job done right. We understand that a solid, properly compacted base is key to making sure your foundation, driveway, or patio lasts for decades without problems.

Expert Earthmoving for Any Project

Getting the ground level is more than just pushing dirt around. It takes careful planning and the right equipment to make sure the final surface is strong and stable. We provide cut and fill services for a wide range of projects, big and small.

Our cut and fill services are perfect for:

  • New Home Foundations: We create the level pad your home will be built on, which is critical for preventing cracks and structural issues down the road.
  • Building & Shed Pads: We can build a perfectly flat and compacted area for a new garage, workshop, barn, or shed.
  • Driveway & Road Grading: We shape the land to create a smooth, properly sloped path for your new driveway or access road.
  • Yard Leveling & Landscaping: If you have a lumpy, uneven yard, we can smooth it out to create more usable space for your family to enjoy.
  • Solving Drainage Problems: By carefully re-shaping the land, we can direct rainwater away from your home’s foundation and prevent puddles or flooding.
  • Commercial Site Preparation: We handle large-scale cut and fill to prepare commercial lots for buildings and parking lots.

Don’t trust this important first step to just anyone. The team at Jefferson Land Clearing & Excavation has the skill to guarantee your project starts on a solid, level foundation. Call us today to talk about how we can shape your land for you at (865) 805-0543.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cut & Fill

It’s the process of leveling land by digging up dirt from high areas (the cut) and using it to fill in low areas (the fill). The goal is to create a flat, level surface or a specific slope for projects like a home foundation or a driveway.
Building on uneven ground can cause serious problems. A house needs a perfectly level foundation to be stable and avoid cracks in the walls or floors. Roads and driveways also need a proper slope to be safe and to drain water correctly.
That’s a common situation. If your project needs more dirt than what we can get from the “cut” areas, we can bring in additional fill dirt with our dump trucks. We will make sure we have exactly what’s needed to get the job done right.
If the fill dirt isn’t spread and packed down tightly (compacted), it can settle over time. This can cause foundations to sink and crack, driveways to break apart, and can create major drainage problems. Doing it right the first time is extremely important.
Moving dirt can definitely be messy, but we work hard to keep the job site as clean and organized as possible. We are professionals who respect your property and will make sure the project area is neat and tidy when we are finished.
