Excavating & Grading in Durham, Butte County
Durham is BC Brown's hometown, a tight-knit farming community of almond and walnut orchards between Chico and Gridley. BC Brown General Engineering has provided excavating and grading for Durham and the surrounding Butte County area since 1999, with the equipment and the track record to back it up.
Grading around Durham is about water, getting it to drain away from buildings and off the lot. We shoot grades, cut and fill to balance the site, and compact pads to spec so whatever goes on top, a slab, a shop, a home, sits on solid, well-drained ground.
Durham is right in our own backyard, since our yard is on Goodspeed Street in Durham, so we mobilize crews and equipment there regularly and keep our response times short. We pull grading and encroachment permits where the work calls for them and handle the red tape so you do not have to.
