A Little About Lowell
Lowell is a compact former mill town on the South Fork of the Catawba, sitting between Gastonia and McAdenville. Lots are small and older, which puts a premium on getting water off the property rather than moving large volumes of dirt.
Why that matters on a job site
On a small wet lot, drainage is the whole job. Grading without solving the water just moves the puddle.
