Red Line Grading LLC is a locally owned and operated residential grading and excavating company. We serve homeowners across Cleveland, Rutherford, Lincoln, and Gaston County NC โ and we specialize in the foundational earthwork that every residential project depends on. Done right, done clean, and done on time.
Our four core services โ grading, excavating, land clearing, and trenching โ cover the full range of what residential homeowners need when it comes to moving and shaping earth on their property. Whether you're building on raw land, fixing a drainage problem, or clearing a lot, we have the equipment and experience to handle it properly.
"Every job we take on, we treat it like it's our own property. That's the only standard we know how to work to."
Being locally based means we know this land โ the soil types, drainage patterns, and terrain across all four counties we serve. That local knowledge matters when you're grading a residential site or managing water flow. It's something no out-of-town contractor can replicate.
We're available 7 days a week, 7am to 9pm. When you need a response, you get one โ not an answering machine, not a callback form.

Most residential property problems trace back to one thing: water going where it shouldn't. Poor grading, bad drainage, and improper site prep cause foundation damage, erosion, flooding, and costly repairs down the road. Getting it right at the start is the smartest investment you can make in your property.
Foundation protection: Proper grading moves water away from your home before it can cause structural damage.
Erosion control: Correctly graded residential land holds up against heavy NC rain and keeps your topsoil where it belongs.
Build readiness: A properly prepared site means smoother construction, fewer delays, and a more predictable build for your home.
Long-term property value: Well-graded residential land with solved drainage is easier to sell and maintain over time.
Driveway durability: A properly built driveway base on residential property lasts years longer than one laid on unprepared ground.
We focus on residential work. Whether you're building on raw land, fixing an existing problem, or reclaiming acreage, we're the crew for you.
Grading issues, drainage problems, land to clear, driveways to build โ we work with residential homeowners who want the job done properly without the runaround.
