Manchester Is Where We Started

Manchester is more than just our service area — it is our home. S and S Excavation and Hauling is headquartered right here in Manchester, Tennessee, where we have spent over a decade shaping the land that surrounds the Manchester town square, the rolling hills along Highways 55 and 41, and the growing residential developments that stretch toward the Old Stone Fort State Archaeological Park. When you call us for excavation work in Manchester, you are calling a neighbor who already knows the soil conditions, the drainage patterns, and the permit requirements in Coffee County.

From clearing overgrown lots near the Bonnaroo festival grounds on Bushy Branch Road to grading new homesites along the Duck River corridor, our crew has handled hundreds of projects within Manchester city limits and the surrounding countryside. We understand the red clay composition that dominates Coffee County topography, and we know where the rock shelves sit beneath the surface that can surprise operators who are not familiar with this terrain. That local knowledge saves our Manchester customers time, money, and headaches on every project.

Manchester has been growing steadily — new subdivisions, commercial pad sites along the Interstate 24 corridor, and rural landowners developing family property that has been in their name for generations. Whether you need a quarter-acre residential lot cleared for a new build or fifty acres of overgrown timber mulched down for pasture restoration, S and S Excavation brings the right equipment and the right experience to get the job done efficiently. We are proud to serve the community where we live, work, and raise our families.

What We Do in Manchester

Excavation Services in Manchester, TN

Every service we offer is available to Manchester residents and businesses. As your local excavation contractor, we can be on your job site quickly — often the same week you call.

Forestry Mulching

Our Kubota forestry mulcher transforms dense undergrowth, small timber, and overgrown fence lines into natural ground cover. Perfect for Manchester landowners clearing wooded property without the mess and expense of traditional logging. We have mulched hundreds of acres across Coffee County — from thick cedar stands near Old Stone Fort to mixed hardwood lots along the Barren Fork.

Residential Excavation

Foundation digs, basement excavation, pond construction, and drainage solutions for Manchester homeowners. We handle everything from small backyard projects to full homesite excavation on rural Coffee County parcels. Our operators know exactly how deep to dig before hitting the limestone layers common in Manchester soil profiles.

Commercial Excavation

Pad site preparation, parking lot grading, utility trenching, and commercial earthwork along the Manchester business corridor. We have worked on projects near the Interstate 24 interchange, the industrial areas off McArthur Street, and the commercial zones expanding along Hillsboro Boulevard.

Site Preparation

Complete site prep services including clearing, grubbing, rough grading, and finish grading. For Manchester builders and developers, we deliver turnkey lot preparation that meets Coffee County building department requirements from the first inspection.

Land Clearing

Full-scale land clearing for Manchester property owners — from removing scattered brush on a half-acre homesite to clearing multi-acre tracts for agricultural or development use. We handle tree removal, stump grinding, debris hauling, and final grading as a complete package.

Bush Hogging

Overgrown fields, neglected fence rows, and abandoned pasture land brought back under control. Our bush hogging service is popular with Manchester-area farmers and rural property owners who need regular maintenance or a one-time knockdown of heavy growth.

Why Manchester Trusts Us

Your Neighbor, Your Excavation Contractor

When you hire S and S Excavation for a project in Manchester, you are not getting a crew dispatched from Nashville or Chattanooga. You are getting the owner on your job site — the same person who answered your phone call, walked your property, and gave you an honest estimate. That is the difference between a local contractor and a corporate outfit.

Veteran-Owned Operations

Military discipline translates directly to excavation work — precision, accountability, showing up on time, and finishing what we start. Our veteran ownership means you get a contractor who takes commitments seriously and treats your property with respect.

Local Soil Knowledge

Coffee County soil is not the same as Davidson County or Hamilton County. We know where the rock is, how the clay behaves after rain, and which areas need extra drainage consideration. That knowledge comes from ten years of working this specific ground.

Owner on Every Job

You will not deal with a sales team, a project manager, and then a different crew. The person you call is the same person who runs the equipment on your site. One point of contact, zero miscommunication.

Same-Week Availability

Because we are based in Manchester, we can mobilize equipment to your site without the scheduling delays and travel charges that come with out-of-town contractors. Most Manchester jobs can be started within the same week of your estimate.

What does land clearing cost in Manchester, Tennessee?

Land clearing costs in Manchester vary based on acreage, terrain, vegetation density, and access conditions. Coffee County land ranges from open fields to dense hardwood timber, and pricing reflects that complexity. We provide free on-site estimates so you get an accurate number based on your specific property — not a generic per-acre quote.

Can you work on properties near Old Stone Fort State Park?

Yes. We regularly work on properties throughout Manchester, including areas near Old Stone Fort and the Duck River corridor. We are familiar with any environmental considerations in these areas and ensure all work complies with local regulations. Our forestry mulching approach is particularly effective for sensitive areas because it leaves root systems intact to prevent erosion.
