A Little About Bessemer City
Bessemer City was founded on mining and iron — the name comes from the Bessemer steel process — and the geology that made it a mining town is still what an excavator finds a few feet down.
Why that matters on a job site
Shallow rock changes the price of a trench or a footing. Around here we look for it before quoting rather than after.
