Here are some of the comments we’ve received from our customers about their experience with Muse Hauling & Grading.
I had a lakefront, wooden bulkhead that was falling into the water in several places along with sinkholes that had been created from water getting under the base of the bulkhead.
Mr. Muse removed the damaged areas, graded the dirt into a slope and reinforced them with rip-rap. He also built a set of stairs into the water where part of the bulkhead was removed. He lined the bottom of the remaining bulkhead with rip-rap to prevent additional erosion. He filled in sink hole areas with dirt and smoothed the entire area over, reseeding and laying down straw.
The job went very well. Mr. Muse had to work without my involvement because I came down with the flu the week he was to start. I also had a deadline to meet because I was expecting guests so there were many ways things could have gone wrong.
Mr. Muse himself was on the job and actually doing some of the work himself. I was extremely impressed with how much he stayed in touch with me to ask questions and give me a daily update.
I wasn’t able to survey the work until the last day, but was very happy to see he had done exactly what I had pictured. He even rescued some shrubs that would have been killed by the grading. The work area was much cleaner than I expected (mud on the driveway, etc.) and he had his equipment removed and finished up when he said he would!

Muse Hauling and Grading did a great job for us at our lake house. Muse did several jobs for us to improve our lot, including demolishing and removing some dilapidated sheds, bringing in truckloads of dirt and grading the lot, designing a grading an irrigation berm and refreshing our gravel driveway.
Robert and his crew are reasonably priced, knowledgeable and dependable. I would not only highly recommend Muse Hauling and Grading–we will be using them for many more projects.

Hi Cathey,
I have copied in on this email the gentleman I have used for all my gravel as well as all my concrete work.
His name is Robert Muse and he is a local business (Muse Hauling and Grading). He has been highly professional and got the work done on time as he indicated.
Most importantly though is his prices are by far the best I got for both the gravel and the concrete work and the work done was to a high standard. You should give him a try one of these days.
His email is above and his phone number is 704 340-4445.
All the best,
Peter
Muse Hauling and Grading did an excellent job. I have a beautiful sun porch at the back of my house. Underneath the porch was nothing. Lots of dirt, certainly nothing anyone would want to see. Muse Hauling and Grading put gravel underneath the sun porch,added some supports, and put up pretty lattice work, and a decorative door. They painted everything white, like my house, and reinforced an area for a car. I am so happy with their work. My house looks very clean and updated. I couldn’t be happier. Many thanks to Robert and his crew for a job well done.

We have used Muse Hauling & Grading for several large projects at our home including a privacy fence,three retaining walls, a paver patio, concrete slabs, concrete curbing, and the list goes on! No matter the challenge, Robert Muse is consistently responsive and thorough and does an amazing job for us. Robert is a joy to work with, and he is always the first one we call when we need a job done right.

Robert Muse just finished re-inforcing a seawall for me and completing a landscaping job as well. He and his employee, Larry Young, did a very professional and excellent job. They were prompt, capable, and very easy to work with. In the future, I will definitely ask Robert for assistance with any similar work.

When we needed to tear down an old house on our property in Iron Station, I called Muse Hauling for an estimate. When Robert said he would meet me at our property that day, I was impressed. He gave me a price, told me in detail what he would do, how long it would take, and when he could start. Our start date was pushed back when we discovered a huge honeybee hive in one wall of the house. I called in a bee keeper to remove them, approximately 50,000 bees, which took about a week. Robert stayed in touch through the whole process. When we were ready, Robert brought his equipment out and quicky, and efficiently took down the house and hauled away the debris. Robert is a true professional and does great work. I highly recommend Muse Hauling and Grading and plan to have Robert do some concrete work for me in the spring.

Working with Muse Hauling and Grading has been a real pleasure. He was always very communicative and willing to work around any issues that arose in the process of clearing a burned out property. The work was done professionally, on time, and on budget. Was great.
Dr. Steve Canipe
Muse did work to repair and renew our driveway and parking area. I can’t say much that hasn’t been said already. They were quick to come out and provide a very competitive estimate, started on time, completed the job quickly and professionally, and were very good with phone communication – keeping us constantly updated. I would definitely use them again.

When our Charlotte, NC home was destroyed by fire we decided to employ the services of Muse Hauling for total demolition services. Not only was their price a $2000 difference from our insurance carrier’s quote, they were timely, professional and courteous throughout the process. Since we lived 3 hours away, we had to have a responsible company with people we could trust – Muse Hauling and Grading did a tremendous job for us during a very difficult time and we would highly recommend any of the services they offer!
Sincerely, Deb and Mike Brooks
This past summer we needed to hire someone to put in a concrete slab for a 24’x32′ garage. We got several similar estimates, but only Muse Hauling and Grading came in with an estimate that was comparable but also included the excavating that needed to be done. He did a wonderful job in a timely fashion for a fair price. We were very happy with the final result and our garage is nearly complete. We would recommend Muse Hauling & Grading to anyone who needed excavating, concrete work, hauling and grading.
Sincerely, Terry Allen & Roger Mitchem
Muse Hauling has done a great job on our gravel driveway. It was in very bad shape. Now it is very smooth. He does great work & is very customer orientated. Good work. We will see you again on any other work that needs to be done.

Muse Hauling and Grading did an excellent job, pouring my garage floor. I would recommend them to all my friends. Thanks for a job well done.
Johnny Hatfield
I had Robert build my garage foundation,slab and drive way. Despite difficulte weather contitions, he was able to finish the job in good time and at a good price. Thanks.
Jerry Moss
We asked Robert to completely rebuild our lakeside retaining wall on our Lake Norman home. After we agreed on what he was going to do and the price, he kept me completely informed the whole time, giving me updates by voice mail when I was not available. This experience was in marked contrast to most contractors who don’t show up and then don’t tell you what’s going on. Robert did exactly what we agreed upon and he did it professionally and as quickly as the lake level would allow. After he finished the seawall, I was so pleased with his work that I asked him to deliver and spread gravel on my drive; this was also done promptly and as I expected. I would recommend him without hesitation.

I owned a single wide mobile home, we used as a summer place at Lake Norman. I rented it for a while, it was not taken care of. Through the years I hired many men to “fix” it; they either made a bigger mess or didn’t show up or didn’t come back. I was contacted by Catawba County that the mobile home had to be removed. Someone had “gutted” it, taken everything. I called numerous places, some never returned my call, others were out of business. Robert Muse called back the same day, told me he would look at it and let me know what he could do. He went the next day and called the next. He told me in detail what he would and could do and the price and explained the whole process. We agreed to move forward, he told me it would be a week to 10 days. The very next day, he called and said the mobile home was gone. I was pleasantly surprised. He had a crew where the schedule opened and he sent them to my property. We were having terrible rains, one dumpster was moved one week and the other the following Monday. I can’t say enough about how professional Muse Hauling is, excellent work done in a most timely manner. You are kept up to date with information concerning the matter.
Robert Muse says what he’s going to do and he does it. How refreshing this day and time. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
A Very Satisfied Customer,
