Earthwork and excavation is in our blood. It’s how Abernethy Contracting got its start 50 years ago here in Charlotte, NC by grading single lots for construction throughout the city’s most iconic neighborhoods.
The scale and scope of our projects have grown since we first started out in 1973. Many of the technologies we use today were unimaginable then.
