Snead's Excavating: Because sometimes you need a man with a machine and zero fear of dirt, danger, or dumb questions. You got land? They'll move it. You got a giant hole that needs digging, a busted pipe underground, or a driveway that looks like it lost a bar fight? Snead's got you. I've watched these guys operate equipment like it's an extension of their soul. Excavator ballet. Skid steer symphony. Precision dirt destruction at its finest. They've handled everything I've thrown at them: Grading? Laser level perfect. Drainage fix? No more backyard swamp. Septic trench? Dug it like they were uncovering buried treasure. And somehow they do it without wrecking your yard like a monster truck rally. Bottom line: Snead's Excavating doesn't just dig holes—they solve problems with diesel and grit. You call. They show up. Dirt disappears. Magic happens. If you want it done right, fast, and without babysitting—get Snead's on the job.

Reached out to Chris to give me a quote on filling a large cellar hole on our property. He worked with us for nearly two years to getting inexpensive fill and connected us with contractors in need of a place to offload their fill dirt. We had Chris come out this week and complete the project, he is extremely professional, and goes the extra mile to make sure we were taken care of. I strongly recommend Snead's Outdoor Services, we could not be more happy with the results and we know you will be too!

We recently had Chris and team out to our property to dig a 1/3 acre fishing pond and remove a tree. The project included moving a lot of dirt while keeping the aesthetic clean and manageable, and clean up was quick and easy. They were prompt, professional, diligent and just plain good to deal with. We are extremely pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend SOS for any outdoor needs!

Expert Erosion Control Contractors in Lexington, NC

Snead's Outdoor Services started with our owner, Chris Snead, who grew up in the landscaping and power equipment business alongside his father. He took to running machinery early, and once he graded his first plot of land on his father's tractor he was hooked — that is where this company came from.

We are still a small outfit and we like it that way: the person who looks at your bank is the one who fixes it. We stabilise shorelines and slopes, then grade and seed behind the work so the repair actually holds.

Locally Owned & Operated Free, No-Obligation Estimates Serving Davidson County & Central NC

Our Erosion Control Process

From the first call to the finished job, here is how an erosion job runs from the first walk-through to the finished bank.

Step 1

Free On-Site Estimate

We come out and look at where you are losing ground and why — the slope, the water and what it is doing to the bank.

Step 2

We Go Over It With You

You hear what we found, what it is going to take and what it costs — before anything gets started. Nothing happens on your property until you say go.

Step 3

We Stabilize It

We put the fix in and grade and seed behind it, so the repair holds instead of washing out with the next storm.

Step 4

We Walk It With You

When the work is done we go over the finished job together and make sure it is what you had in mind. That is the part most people never get, and it is the part we care about most.

Waterfront property has great appeal, as it allows you to go fishing, swimming, and boating with ease, and, at the very least, it will provide a great view. However, waterfront property also comes with a distinct set of challenges, and one of them is the problem of erosion. Over time, the movement of the water will naturally erode the shoreline and cause it to shift, which can cause you to lose valuable sections of your property.

Seawall Installation for Ponds in Lexington, North Carolina

Fortunately, our team at Snead’s Outdoor Services (SOS) is here to offer a solution. If you are concerned about the shoreline of your pond eroding, you can give us a call to have us provide seawall installation for ponds.

Over time, ponds will go through a natural life cycle of expansion and contraction, but it is possible to interrupt and stabilize this cycle to allow those with property on the pond to enjoy their land in its present state. Seawall installation for ponds is necessary to prevent the natural movement of the water from eating away at the shore. When our team are finished with this process, your pond will have a distinct and stable boundary, which in turn will make it safer to walk close to the shore and will prevent your land from eroding away.

Our team is proud to serve the community here in Lexington, North Carolina, and we want to help you protect your ponds and their shorelines from erosion. If you need us to take care of a seawall installation for ponds, simply give us a call to have us get started as soon as possible.


At Snead’s Outdoor Services, we offer seawall installation for ponds to customers throughout Lexington, Denton, Thomasville, Asheboro, Mooresville, Lake Norman, Winston-Salem, Salisbury, Davidson, Cornelius, and Concord, North Carolina.

Erosion Control FAQs

Answers to the questions we get asked most about erosion control work in Davidson County and central North Carolina. Anything not covered here, call us on (336) 596-5573.

How much does it cost?

Every site is different, so there is no honest flat rate to quote. We come out, look at the job in person and give you a straight number before anything starts — free, and with no obligation to use us.

How do I know if I need erosion control?

The usual signs are soil washing away after rain, bare patches where grass will not hold, exposed roots, gullies forming, or a bank or shoreline that keeps giving ground each season.

Do you install seawalls?

Yes — seawalls for lakes and for ponds, and shoreline stabilization where a bank is being cut back by the water.

What happens after the fix goes in?

We grade and seed behind the work, because bare ground is what starts the problem again. The repair is not finished until the ground around it is holding.

What equipment do you use?

Caterpillar equipment and other heavy machinery. We are owner-operated, so the person who comes out to quote your job is the one running the machine on it.

What areas do you cover?

We are based in Lexington and work across Davidson County and central North Carolina — Winston-Salem, High Point, Thomasville, Asheboro, Denton, Kernersville, Clemmons, Mocksville, Advance, Salisbury, Concord, Mooresville, Cornelius, Davidson and the Lake Norman area, plus the communities around them.
