Grading, excavation and land clearing in Newland, the Avery County seat.

Newland is the Avery County seat and one of the closest towns to our shop. We've worked in and around Newland since 2005 for homeowners, farms and the contractors building here.
Hillside home sites, driveways that climb out of the valley, wet fields and farm ponds make up most of the work in and around town.
What we plan for on property in this part of the High Country.
At about 3,600 feet, cold winters and hard rain shape every job.
Ridges, tree farms and wooded tracts surround the town.
Drives and house sites are built to shed water and hold through winter.
Permit needs vary by project. Check with Avery County before work starts.

Do you do excavation and grading in Newland, NC?
Yes. Newland is about 20 minutes from our shop, and Western Carolina Earthworx has worked in and around Newland since 2005 on house sites, driveways, drainage, clearing and farm ponds.
What is the ground like for building in Newland?
Newland sits in a high valley at about 3,600 feet, so freeze-thaw and hard rain shape every job. Low ground near town can stay wet, while the surrounding ridges bring steep slopes and shallow rock.
Where do I check permits for a project in Newland?
Avery County Planning and Inspections is based in Newland and handles building permits and the county's erosion control program. If your property is inside town limits, check with the Town of Newland as well before work begins.
Can you fix a wet yard or field near Newland?
Often, yes. Regrading, a swale, a ditch or a culvert can move water off yards and fields that stay soggy in Newland's valley bottoms, and we look at where the water comes from during the free site visit.
