About Grattan Excavating

The Flat River runs right through Belding, and in deep winter it turns to black glass between snowbanks under the old mill windows. Grattan Excavating works the town while that happens: plowing drives and lots, opening walks along the brick streets, treating the ice where wind comes off the water. Country roads out toward Smyrna and Orleans drift over fast, and long farm drives need more than one visit to stay open. The satisfaction is plain enough, a cleared lot at first light with salt down and nobody thinking twice about it. Belding earns its winters, and they get met head-on.
