Whether you're near the historic center, along rural roads with acreage, or working around older homes with heritage value, JG Grading & Landscaping delivers grading, excavation, and site prep work you can depend on. From ponds and driveways to full site-packages, we’re Macon’s partner for land improvement.
From Cherokee mounds to agricultural fairs (and yes, a little grading too) — here are a few things you might not know about Macon and how JG Grading & Landscaping ties into it.
Macon is named for Nathaniel Macon, a prominent early American politician, and its county includes the Nikwasi Indian Mound, an important historic Cherokee ceremonial site that remains a landmark in Franklin, NC.
The Macon County Fair is a long-standing agricultural fair that celebrates the area’s rural traditions with livestock displays, gardening contests, and arts & crafts every fall.
Because Macon has many older properties and historic parcels mixed with farmland, property owners often need land clearing, driveway installations, and drainage solutions to maintain access and protect structures.
We take pride in serving Macon because here, every acre, drive, or pond often connects with history, heritage, or long-standing family land. Doing the work well means respecting that legacy while improving land for today.
Personal stories of transformation from our happy clients
We recently had the pleasure of working with John from JG Grading and Landscaping, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the service we received. From the very start, John took the time to meet us on-site and truly listen to our needs. He provided professional advice on what should and shouldn’t be done, without trying to upsell unnecessary services. What really stood out was how John offered us several options, including more budget-friendly alternatives. He walked us through the pros and cons of each option, giving us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. His honesty and transparency made us feel confident in our choices. John was also a pleasure to work with—very personable, approachable, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. We highly recommend his services to anyone in need of grading or landscaping work. We’re thrilled with the results and will definitely be calling him again for future projects!
Excellent service. Mr. Glover worked with requirements involving setbacks, complex drainage and a substantial elevation buildup to create a new property contour perfect to build our house and large garage. He accurately estimated the materials and labor, and Mr. Glover's suggestions during excavation and grading proved invaluable, ensuring pleasing aesthetics and proper drainage.
