A Little About Newton
Newton is the Catawba County seat, and the 1924 courthouse on the square is the landmark everyone gives directions by. The town has a compact older core surrounded by newer construction pushing outward.
Why that matters on a job site
Older in-town lots were graded before anyone thought hard about where water went. Most of what we fix here is fifty-year-old drainage.
