Greenville, SC – February 20, 2026 – Red Dirt Contracting, a family-owned dirt work and pond contractor, is now serving property owners throughout the Greenville area with pond construction, pond dam restoration, dredging, commercial grading, and land clearing services.
The company is led by Jon Byrnes, who brings more than 15 years of experience in heavy equipment operations and land management. Red Dirt Contracting is fully insured and backs all projects with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Red Dirt Contracting offers five core services for residential and commercial property owners.
Pond construction is the company’s primary focus. The team builds new farm ponds to spec, handling watershed analysis, soil evaluation, and spillway design. Depending on the property’s terrain and the owner’s goals, Red Dirt builds embankment, excavated, or combination ponds.
For property owners with existing ponds, the company offers dam restoration and dredging. Many older farm ponds in the Upstate were built decades ago and now exhibit seepage, erosion, or structural weakness. Red Dirt repairs failing dams before they give out completely. Dredging addresses ponds that have filled in over the years — a pond that was originally 10 feet deep may now be 5 or 6 feet due to decades of runoff and decomposing vegetation. Dredging restores the original depth and water capacity.
Red Dirt Contracting also handles commercial grading and land clearing. Grading work includes site preparation for construction, drainage improvements, and terrain reshaping for agricultural or development purposes. Land clearing removes brush, trees, and overgrowth to reclaim usable property, from small residential lots to large acreage projects.
“We show up, follow through, and we don’t call it done until you’re happy with the result,” said Byrnes. “That means clean job sites, clear communication throughout the project, and work we stand behind. We do what we say we’re going to do.”
The company responds to all inquiries by the next business day and provides on-site evaluations for qualified projects. Red Dirt Contracting serves property owners throughout the Greenville area and surrounding communities, including Travelers Rest, Simpsonville, Greenville, Woodruff, Belton, Landrum, and the Lake Keowee area, including Seneca and Salem.
