Timmonsville sits about twelve miles west of Florence, which puts it close to our home base. We work out of the 29501 side of Florence County, so the run to Timmonsville is a short one. US 76 comes in from I-95 at exit 157 and becomes Smith Street through the middle of Timmonsville. SC 403 rides along with it for a mile and a half through town. We do demolition, land clearing, dirt work and gravel drives all over the 29161 area. Most of that sits past the town limits, out on farm lots and long dirt drives. The town sits well inside the area we cover, so a trip out is easy.
This has been farm country since the tobacco days, and the land still shows it. Fields run right up to back yards, and old barns and sheds sit at the edge of them. Manufactured homes are common here, and a lot of the houses went up in the 1970s. That mix keeps us busy with teardowns one week and grown-up land the next. We run a mini excavator, a track skid steer, a tractor and a dump trailer. You can read more about the company if you want the background. We come look at the job in person before we price it.

Older houses around Timmonsville reach a point where repairs stop paying. Roofs open up, floors give way, and the wiring is long past its day. Once a place has sat empty a few winters, the math changes. Most owners find that taking the house down costs less than fixing it. We handle houses, mobile homes, barns and outbuildings. The mini excavator pulls a structure apart in pieces. That way it drops inside the footprint, well clear of the fence and the well. Debris loads into the dump trailer and leaves the property. We rake the spot flat once the last load is gone. You get back open ground you can mow or build on.
Storm damage brings the other calls. Hard wind finds the weak roof first, and a big limb can end an old farmhouse in one night. We clear the wreck and haul the tree out on the same trip. Piers and slabs come out too if you want the lot clean. Old tobacco barns and equipment sheds get the same treatment. Many have leaned for years and are not safe to step inside. We take them apart from the outside with the machine, then clean the ground up. If a stump stands in the way, we dig it out with the excavator. The hole gets filled and packed before we leave.
Farm ground out here goes back to brush in a hurry. Leave a field two seasons and briars and young pine take the edges. Owners off Oates Highway and out toward Sardis call once the tree line has crept well into the field. For that kind of growth, forestry mulching is the quickest way back. The head on the track skid steer chews standing brush and small trees into chips. The chips stay on the ground and hold the dirt in place. Bigger trunks and root balls call for land clearing with the excavator instead. Open pasture that just needs knocking down is a job for brush hogging with the tractor.
Home sites are the other half of the work here. Plenty of families set a house or a mobile home on land they already own. We open a spot in the trees and pull the stumps out of the footprint. Then the dirt gets shaped. A building pad has to sit higher than the ground around it. That way rain runs away from the house. Cutting a ditch so water leaves the yard is excavation work. Getting in matters as much as the pad itself. A dirt drive turns to mud after a hard rain, so most people want a gravel driveway put in. We cut the base and crown it, then spread the stone.
