The Short Version Of Our Story
Founded in 1981 by Gerald Odom, Coastal Grading began with a modest start. After 10+ years working as a foreman with local asphalt paving companies, Gerald start Coastal Grading and Rental with a pickup truck, a backhoe and a trailer. Gerald’s hard work and integrity paid off quickly growing the company to one of the most highly respected site-work contractors in the Low Country. It became a common theme in the Savannah Market that “no one could out work Gerald Odom”. His dedication set the bar for everyone that joined the Coastal Grading Team.
Coastal Grading has provided a wide variety of site-work services throughout the Low Country over the past 40+ year; everything from truck yard maintenance to large warehouse construction. Colonial Terminals yard maintenance, SCAD Ronald C. Waranch Equestrian Center, Ellis Square and Underground Parking Garage, SCAD’s Sands at One West Victory, Benedictine Military School Parade Ground, are only a few of the successful projects of Coastal Grading’s long esteemed history. Gerald’s most successful achievement was building the best commercial grading team in the Savannah Market.
After over 50 years in the commercial construction business, Gerald Odom turned over the reigns to Brian Hussey. A well-known, well-respected local businessman, whose father was Roy Hussey, founder of Hussey-Gay-Bell Engineering firm. Brian came “full circle” from holding a survey rod during summer jobs with Hussey-Gay-Bell to owning a civil construction company.
