Josh has handled several projects for us. He built a rock road in our backyard for our boat, and we didn't have to think twice about it. He handled everything from start to finish and the work was excellent. We also had a swimming pool removed, which left our backyard a mess. Josh brought in dirt, regraded the area, and it looks amazing now. We liked his work so much we had him put in a brand new lawn for my mother, including scraping out the old lawn, laying new sod, and installing an irrigation system. Her lawn looks incredible. Josh is efficient, professional, and fairly priced.

For more than 10 years, Josh has done an outstanding job maintaining my lawn. His professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail are second to none. Lawn care is clearly more than a job to him, it's a craft. Every time he finishes, my yard looks beautiful, and I never have to worry about the quality of the work. If you want someone dependable, skilled, and genuinely invested in the results, I recommend Earthworks Solutions without hesitation.

Field story
Wooded gravel access road
A long gravel drive through timber only works if the clearing, crown, and clay edges are planned together. This job opened access without turning the lane into a ditch.
A shop footprint on wet or pumping soils needs fabric and stone in the right order. This pad was cleared, fabric-laid, and staged for gravel before the building kit arrived.
These answer-first guides help owners and builders understand pricing, drainage, scope boundaries, and what changes the job.
Pricing guide
What land clearing costs in Louisiana and the Mississippi Gulf Coast
Land clearing pricing moves most on acreage, stem density, tree size, disposal path, access, and whether the site needs selective work or a full push for development.
Permits, inspections, and access issues to talk through before work starts
Before grading, dirt work, clearing, or demo starts, you should know whether the site needs permit coordination, utility locates, right-of-way access approval, or inspection timing that could affect the schedule.
Homeowner vs. commercial project timelines: what changes and why
Residential jobs usually move faster because there are fewer approval layers. Commercial scopes take longer because schedules depend on inspections, handoffs, truck access, and coordination with other trades.
Yes. We quote Ocean Springs addresses and surrounding Jackson County parcels. If a job sits outside the normal radius, we flag that before mobilization.
Sandy loams with clay lenses near bayous and live oak canopies. That is why the site walk matters before pricing is finalized.
Most jobs start within 7 to 14 days after scope approval. Storm response and more complex commercial sequencing can change that window.
Yes. We work from stakes, plans, and field conditions and call out any conflicts before the site moves to the next trade.
