Excavation & Dirt Work in Chattanooga, TN
Licensed & insured excavation, septic, driveways, grading, land clearing and site work for Chattanooga and Hamilton County.
From the ridges above the Tennessee River to the neighborhoods spread across the valley floor, Chattanooga ground is rarely flat and never the same twice. Walker's Dirt Work handles excavation, grading, drainage and site preparation across the greater Chattanooga area — the groundwork that every driveway, foundation, septic system and build depends on.
We're based just up the valley in Dunlap: close enough to be on a Chattanooga job quickly, and small enough that you still get the owner on the phone, not a call center.
Across Chattanooga and Hamilton County we handle everything from tight downtown hillside lots to new builds spreading into the suburbs — grade, rock, drainage and access planned around each site. See the full range of our dirt work services, or our work up on Signal Mountain.
Why Chattanooga calls Walker's
Hillside & Ridge Ready
Sloped lots and rocky ground are normal here. We plan equipment and excavation around tight, difficult sites so the work gets done right and safe.
Drainage Done Right
Chattanooga storms move a lot of water. We grade and drain so it goes where it belongs — before it becomes a foundation or erosion problem.
Owner-Operated
You deal with the people doing the work. Upfront pricing, clear scheduling, and a crew that leaves the ground better than they found it.
THE PEOPLE WHO
HIRED US TALK.
Worked with us? We truly appreciate you — it only takes 30 seconds.
Walker and crew came out to fix a bad driveway on our property that was low, very muddy, and prone to holding water. Within a couple hours they put in a new culvert, raised it with dirt and large gravel, dug out a channel to prevent future flooding, and set large sandstone rocks along the driveway. Quick, helpful, and highly efficient. Highly recommend them to anyone who needs any type of excavation work.
Had to get property cleared to put a fifth wheel on for temporary living until the house gets built. Found this business and had a great response. Timely, professional, and easy to work with. Reasonable prices — you won't be disappointed!
I was new to the area and needed a driveway put in, excavation for a barn, electric, and plumbing. Eric does what he promises and at a good price. He's also happy to advise on other specialties not his own. Came recommended by a local builder — give him a call.
These guys do fantastic work. They put in a gravel drive with a culvert and incorporated stone I had on site. Upfront about pricing and scheduling beforehand; friendly and informative on site. Walker's Dirt Work provides everything you'd want out of a good local business.
Would definitely recommend. Really good at making swales for the side of the road if you're having erosion problems.
