Andrew Michael runs Michael Way Acres, a locally owned excavation and land management company serving Clarksville, Southside, and the surrounding Middle Tennessee counties. He is on the machines for the work the company takes on — land clearing, grading, driveway builds, drainage correction, and storm clean-up — which is where the advice in these articles comes from.
What he works on
- Land clearing & forestry mulching: turning wooded, brushy, and overgrown parcels into usable ground.
- Site preparation & grading: build-ready pads, laser-guided leveling, and compaction that holds.
- Drainage & erosion control: diagnosing wet yards, cutting ditches, and installing French drains that actually move water.
- Driveways & access roads: gravel and recycled asphalt drives, culverts, and long rural access roads.
- Storm damage clean-up: debris removal and land restoration after severe Tennessee weather.
Why the advice here is worth trusting
Every guide on this blog is written from jobs completed on Middle Tennessee ground — the same clay soils, hillsides, and rainfall patterns local property owners deal with. Pricing ranges, material comparisons, and drainage fixes reflect what has worked on real properties in and around Clarksville, not national averages.
★★★★★“Andrew was great to work with and did a fantastic job. The roadway looks great and is amazingly compacted and smooth, pretty much like driving on new paved highway.”
— David L. Keffer
