The pit

Out of the ground in Maiden, onto your driveway

We are not calling around to find you a load. We dig it, screen it and drive it, all off one yard. That is why it comes clean and why it can go out this week instead of whenever a supplier can fit you in.

Service area

Do you come out to me?

If you are in Catawba County or Lincoln County, yes. Most of our work is within about thirty minutes of the pit, and Sherrills Ford and Denver keep us busiest.

Further out? Ask. If it is a haul we will tell you straight, and we still go for the right job.

We also work in Stanley, Statesville, Lake Norman of Catawba, Iron Station, Terrell, Cornelius, Conover, Mooresville.

What people say

We used Smith mine on a project where we needed to remove an existing concrete driveway, re grade the existing slab, add a new drainage pipe and then pour the driveway back. This was a massive project but smith mine made quick and efficient work of it. Very responsive and did everything they said they would in a timely manner. Great customer service and will definitely be using them for all our future projects!

I couldn't be more happier with Matt and his crew. They did an excellent job grading my homesite, barn and horse riding arena. The attention to detail, quality of work were outstanding from start to finish. I highly recommend Smith Mine to anyone needing grading, site work & septic.

Smith Mine is outstanding. Matt is always on top of his game. Very responsive and ready to help out. We've needed quite a few loads of dirt and he is always quick to answer and schedule a drop off. The dirt is also free of roots and debris. Definitely my go to!

Seamless delivery and grading by Matt and his team. Matt is the kindest and most professional gravel/dirt providers I've worked with, and with the most competitive prices. I couldn't recommend Smith Mine more!
