Adam sent me a quote and options for replacement. It turns out it is a much bigger project than I anticipated. Realizing this Adam could have easily left it in my court to figure out but he took the time to explain and offer other ideas for repair or replacement. I was very impressed with his knowledge and experience and willingness to assist me.

In March 2024, I contracted A1 Grading, owned by Dwayne Burrell, to clear a 15-acre road (approx…read more 1.3 acres) and a one-acre lot for the construction of my new home. The total contract price for the road was $28,998.28, and for the one-acre lot to build my house was $8,187.18. I paid deposits and installment payments as requested, totaling more than $37,000. The agreement included clearing the road, installing pipes and riprap, compacting the base, and, importantly, hauling all debris either by grinding or by using the one-acre lot for safe burning. Dwayne repeatedly delayed, giving various excuses. He claimed conditions were too dry, that he needed permits, or later that "leaves had to fall" before burning. He burned the debris from the one-acre lot, did very minimal grading, but the large piles of tree debris and stumps from the road clearing--present since May 2024--were never removed or burned as agreed. One pile is over a story tall. Now that my home is being built, I received an estimate of $15K to haul the huge piles because of his deceit, lies, and dishonesty. Throughout this process, I accommodated his delays, made payments on time, and communicated consistently. Dwayne, however, failed to follow through with the contract terms. He requested that I pay him the remaining balance minus $500. I told him there was no way I would pay him that. I paid him too much already. On October 7, 2024, he claimed the project was complete and demanded final payment, even though the road debris was still on my property. Removing the debris was one of the main reasons I contracted with him. I informed him that the final payment would not be made until the work was completed in full. Since then, I have had no communication from him, and nearly two years later, the debris remains, leaving me with an incomplete project despite significant payments. Everyone asks me who left that crap on my road and state A1 GRADING, WENDELL, NC, DWAYNE BURRELL. Dwayne has proven unreliable, has failed to honor the contract, and has not returned to finish the job. I would never ever recommend him for any job. He is someone who does not take pride in his work. He is a con man! He should be on worst pros in town!

Dwayne picked up when called A-1 Grading. I told him my concern and that I wanter an estimate and…read morehim to look at my yard and tell me what to do about my empty yard that flooded. It is about a 1/3 of an acre and a corner lot. Dwayne set an appointment to give me an estimate. He arrived 5 minutes early for the appointment just two days later. After we walked the property he recommended he install drainage all around my home to lead the water away from my foundation and change the direction of the grade to lead the water away as well. I mentioned to him I wanted to get it done soon. So we agreed on a start date and arrived with his equipment and completed the job in two days, installing drainage pipes on the down spouts and changed the grade of my property. So that I have a more attractive well drained yard. Gone is the 12 foot wide 2 foot deep stream of water during the Spring and Fall. Which used to be the wet seasons. I highly recommend you deal with this company they good people. They were dependable, respectful and did an excellent job.
