Trantham Excavating & Grading

About Trantham Excavating & Grading

A March snow in Copperhill lands on ground that knows about being moved. This is red-earth country, where the soil of the old Copper Basin still shows rust-colored wherever a bank is cut. Trantham Excavating & Grading, an excavating and grading business, turns that feel for shifting weight to snow removal in winter. Heavy, wet late-season snow packs fast on these grades, and it has to be pushed in full loads and stacked where the melt can run off downhill. Driveways get opened wide and lots get scraped flat. When the thaw comes a day later, red clay shows at the edges and the cleared ground is already drying.
