"Eric quoted us a new driveway and a regrade for the wet side yard. Crew showed up on time, finished a day early, and the slab is dead flat. Best contractor experience we've had in 15 years in Louisville."

Fern Creek, KY Contractor
Fern Creek covers the southeast corner of Jefferson County — Bardstown Road south of Watterson, Beulah Church Road, and a mix of ranches and newer subdivisions on bigger lots. Drainage is the recurring story here — Fern Creek itself runs through several pockets and the clay holds water. We fix that for a living.

"Jerry dug our basement on a tight ridge lot — limestone everywhere. He hit rock on day one, called me before adding anything, and the final bill matched the written quote. Honest people."

"Used E & J for site prep on a pole barn build. Pad was perfect, drainage swale exactly where we needed it. Fair pricing, no nickel-and-diming. Already booked them for the gravel drive."
