Scope Of Work
In 2014, Wofford Earthworks, LLC partnered with Henry Graphics Inc. on grading out the area needed to insert a Cabela’s store sign that would be visible from I-75N in Acworth, GA. Henry Graphics had the option to work with either Wofford Earthworks or another local contractor. The other contractor wanted to haul off a mass amount of dirt and build a retaining wall that would cost over $20,000 due to the slope of the land in combination with other circumstances. Thankfully, we had a better solution.
Our approach at Wofford Earthworks is to listen to our customer and help problem solve in situations such as these. In this instance, we were able to provide a solution that would allow for all dirt to remain onsite without the need for a retaining wall - not only saving our customer money, but also time. Henry’s Graphics had less than two weeks to get the sign inserted for the store’s grand opening. Wofford Earthworks completed the project in only three days.
Using a 200-series excavator, we dug an opening that was deep enough for a trench box that Henry’s was able to use to insert the sign anchors. We then removed the trench box, backfilled around the sign, and final graded the correct slopes and swells for a fraction of the other contractor’s price.
