Morgan County

Serving Rutledge and Morgan County Since 2013

Rutledge is a small town of around 800 people whose historic district has stayed largely unchanged since its railroad days, and that character shapes the work we do here. Many of the homes around the town park and the old commercial strip are older properties where the right move is refreshing established beds, regrading worn areas, and refining mature plantings rather than tearing everything out. We work with what is already there, matching new stonework and bed lines to the look of a town that takes its heritage seriously.

Rutledge is the gateway to Hard Labor Creek State Park, a 5,804 acre park that is the second largest in Georgia and was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s. Properties out toward the park and along the rural roads of Morgan County tend to sit on larger, wooded lots, and that brings a different set of needs: land clearing, drainage on sloped and tree-shaded ground, retaining walls, and sod or full landscaping for new construction. The same red clay that runs through this part of Georgia means grading has to be done right the first time, because water finds the low spots fast.

From our Covington base, Rutledge is a straight shot east on I-20, with the town sitting just a couple of miles north of Exit 105. That short drive means we can get to a Morgan County property quickly for an estimate, a drainage problem, or a maintenance visit, and Madison, the county seat, is only a few miles further east if your property is on that side.

Can you handle larger rural and wooded lots in Rutledge?

We handle land clearing, drainage on sloped ground, retaining walls, and sod or full landscaping for new construction. Our GDOT certification also qualifies us for larger commercial and public projects. Call to walk through your scope and we will put together a written proposal.

Is there a trip charge for Rutledge?

No. Rutledge is about 20 miles from our Covington base, a straight run east on I-20, and it falls well within our service area. There is no trip charge or travel surcharge for any job in Morgan County. The estimate you receive is the same price regardless of your location within our service area.

Do you serve properties out toward Hard Labor Creek State Park?

Yes. Properties along the rural roads toward Hard Labor Creek State Park tend to sit on larger, wooded lots, and that brings a different set of needs than an in-town yard. We handle land clearing, drainage on sloped and tree-shaded ground, retaining walls, and sod or full landscaping for new construction out that way. From our Covington base it is a straight shot east on I-20, with the town just north of Exit 105, so reaching a property near the park is easy.

How do you handle the red clay when grading a sloped Rutledge lot?

The Georgia red clay through this part of Morgan County sheds water fast and sends it straight to the low spots, so grading has to be done right the first time. We shape the ground and install drainage around how each sloped lot actually moves water, rather than assuming a flat fix will hold. Done properly, that keeps standing water off the yard and away from the foundation after a hard rain.
