We're based in Palmyra. Not “serving” Palmyra from an office in another county — our equipment sits here, and most days our first job of the morning is a few minutes down the road.

Digging in Fluvanna soil

Palmyra sits on red clay over rock, and the depth to that rock changes across a single lot. Forty-eight years of digging here is forty-eight years of learning where it comes up shallow — which is the difference between a quoted price and a change order.

Fluvanna County septic permits

Any new septic system or drain field replacement in Fluvanna County needs a permit and a soil evaluation through the Virginia Department of Health. We handle that paperwork as part of the job.
