Working in Palo Cedro

BC Brown General Engineering has served Palo Cedro since 1999. Palo Cedro is a rural community of ranchettes and acreage properties just east of Redding, in the Cow Creek country at the base of the Cascade foothills. We bring the same crews, equipment, and standards to every job here, from a single driveway to a full site build.

The ground around Palo Cedro is rolling foothill ground along Cow Creek where nearly every property runs on a well and septic. Hillside work is our bread and butter: cutting level pads into grade, managing drainage and erosion on slopes, and building driveways and systems that hold their line on the hill.

Palo Cedro is east of Redding on Highway 44. We pull permits through Shasta County Environmental Health when the job calls for it, from septic and grading to encroachment, and handle the inspections so the work closes out clean.

Palo Cedro · Common Questions

Palo Cedro FAQs.

What services does BC Brown offer in Palo Cedro?
All six of our trades: excavation, grading, paving, septic, sewer and underground utilities, site preparation, and concrete. Because one crew carries the job end to end, nothing gets lost between subcontractors.
Do you pull permits in Shasta County?
Yes. We pull septic, grading, and encroachment permits through Shasta County Environmental Health and coordinate every inspection.
How fast can you get to Palo Cedro?
Palo Cedro is east of Redding on Highway 44, so estimates are usually scheduled within the week, and Brandon answers the phone directly at (530) 624-2094.
Anything tricky about building in Palo Cedro?
Foothill ground: slopes, rock, and thin topsoil over harder material. Cuts and fills need to be benched and compacted properly, driveways need grades a truck can climb in wet weather, and drainage has to be planned before the first pass, not after the first storm.
