Your Local Excavating Contractor in Nichols, SC

Scavo Solutions brings the same equipment and know-how to Nichols that we bring to every property in the region. Sitting near the confluence of the Little Pee Dee and Lumber Rivers, Nichols has lived through catastrophic flooding twice in recent memory — which means drainage and grading aren't just a preference here, they're the difference between rebuilding right and rebuilding into the next flood. Whatever your property needs, we're the crew that shows up, gets it right, and leaves you with land that works.

Quick Facts About Nichols, SC

  • Sits near the confluence of the Little Pee Dee and Lumber Rivers, a location that has made flooding a recurring, serious concern.
  • Devastated by both Hurricane Matthew (2016) and Hurricane Florence (2018) — Matthew alone destroyed nearly 90% of the town's roughly 260 homes.
  • Town leaders have since pursued major flood-mitigation funding, including home elevation and levee projects, to protect the community going forward.
  • A small, resilient farming community where proper site grading and drainage now play a direct role in how homes and businesses are rebuilt.
  • Given this flood history, property owners here have real, well-founded reasons to prioritize drainage and grading work over cosmetic improvements.

Every project — big or small — includes a clean, graded site when we're done. No leftover debris, no half-finished work, just land that's ready for whatever's next.

OUR SERVICES

Everything Your Nichols Property Needs, From One Trusted Crew

From overgrown lots to full site prep, Scavo Solutions is the excavating contractor Nichols property owners call when the job needs to get done right the first time. No job too big, no lot too rough.

Excavating

Getting a project off the ground starts with what's under it. Our excavation crews handle site prep, grading, and trenching with the kind of precision that keeps your build on schedule — from foundation work to drainage lines to that shed pad you've been putting off.

Demolition

Tearing something down right is its own kind of skill. We handle full structure removal and selective demolition alike, always with an eye on safety and a clean site when we're done — residential, commercial, concrete, or interior.

Land & Lot Clearing

Overgrown doesn't have to stay that way. We clear brush, trees, and debris to turn a tangled lot into a blank canvas — ready for the build, the landscape, or whatever you've got planned next.

Drainage Systems

Water goes where it wants unless you give it somewhere better to go. We design drainage solutions — catch basins, dry wells, rain gardens — that protect your property and keep flooding off your list of worries.

Bamboo Removal

It looked charming until it started taking over. We remove bamboo at the root, protecting your foundation and your neighbors' patience, and open up space you forgot you had.

Pond Construction

A well-placed pond does more than look good — it manages runoff, curbs erosion, and gives your landscape a natural focal point. We design and build ponds that work as hard as they look good. 

Pool Demo & Removal

Ready to reclaim that backyard? We dismantle and haul away old pools safely and completely, leaving you with a clean, level space for whatever comes next — garden, patio, or just room to breathe.

Forestry Mulching

Ready to clear that overgrown lot? We mulch through brush, saplings, and thick undergrowth in a single pass, leaving your land open and usable without stripping the topsoil that keeps it healthy.

Brush Hogging

Ready to tame that overgrown field? We cut back tall grass, weeds, and brush fast, leaving your lot or pasture clear and manageable for whatever comes next — grazing, building, or just tidy land.
